oris 8oth anniversary

Limited Edition of 1,925 Pieces Oris pays tribute to one of the greatest jazz legends, pianist Oscar Peterson. Piano keys �C the piano was his favourite instrument �C are reproduced on a black grooved dial reminiscent of a vinyl record. Engraved on the numbered back is the lion that the virtuoso used as a symbol, a virtuoso who also loved watches, particularly those with Roman numerals. The ultimate allusion, Oris has plated the VIII on the dial with pink gold, a reference to the eight Grammy Awards the musician collected during his career. The watch is delivered in a varnished wooden box along with a certificate and DVD. The stainless steel case measures 42mm and is water resistant to 100 meters. It is powered by an automatic Swiss ETA caliber 2836.

A writer has recommended a new line of Swatch watches for men who like fashionable timepieces.Writing for the Crunch Gear Holiday Gift Guide, John Biggs said "it's important to accessorise", adding: "That's why you need one of [the] Swatch New Gent Watches."He pointed out that although some of the colours are somewhat bright, there are a few hues that would cater for those who prefer something a little more subdued.According to Swatch, the New Gent range is available in ten shades and is a variation on the classic Swatch Gent for the 21st century watch-lover.Earlier this month, Ariel Adams of Luxist also said she likes the New Gent Rebel collection.She praised their modern styling, larger size and range of colours and said they would be perfect for fashion-conscious guys.Swatch watches could therefore be great gift ideas for male relatives this year, especially those who are hard to buy for.
