I was waiting on a guesta few days ago. She brought an older model Citizen watch in fora repair and was asking about the cost to repair versus the cost of a new watch. I examinedthewatch and determined the repair was going to be between $80-$160 because of the damage done to it, whereas a new, similar one would sell for $240 with a five year warranty. The age of the watch (approximately 10-12 years) combined with the cost of repair, indicated it would likely be better to replace it unless it had some sentimental value. I asked her if this was the case and she replied no, it had no sentiment at all. At this point, we walked over to the watches and I told her replacement also would be great because the new models of ...

Jewelry is never where I pictured myself when I was growing up. I saw myself as most young boys do, as a firefighter, motorcycle racer, or a pilot. I consider myself lucky to be in an industry that values rare things. I get to be involved in some of the greatest love stories ever told. I meet people who are also passing along family heirlooms and hunting for future family heirlooms. Funny thing is that making a difference in someone's life isn't always apparent. I was working for Day's Jewelers in the Manchester, New Hampshire location as the store's watch specialist. I worked mostly mornings when it was quiet. I took my time to readjust the watch lines in their cases, and polishing of any fingerprints I might find. I jumped at any chance I could at running out to the floor to help ...

The other day, I had a customer come in to shop for a watchand I asked him "What do you need it to do?" Of course, that left me wide open for the response of, "tell time." After we laughed about how I set him up for the punch line, I decided it might be best to be a little more specific. I asked him the following questions: 1. Will the watch be exposed to water? 2. Is the watch for dress wear or active wear? 3. If the watch is exposed to water, what type of exposure? Occasional? Swimming? Diving? 4. If you will be wearring it as an active wear watch, please tell me how you will use it. 5. What do you do for work? 6. Are you going to wear the watch for work, casual, or both? Why would I ask these questions? That was his response as well. It actually is a very simple answer. ...

A few years ago my uncle gave me a baggie which contained a pretty rough looking piece of twisted metal. Upon opening it I realized that it was a Navajo sterling silver cuff style watch with turquoise and coral. This poor thing was in horrible shape, the watch was busted, the cuff practically cracked all the way through and one of the large turquoise stones was missing. Sitting there holding this, I thought to myself "this sure looks familiar". My uncle explained to me that this was my grandfather's watch. "That's why I remember it" I said. You see my grandfather passed away when I was just a boy and he was only 52 years old. He was the Chief of the Penobscot Indian tribe here in Maine, and I remember seeing this watch on him when I would visit him in the tribal offices after kindergarten class. ...

New York Yankee Derek Jeter recently became a member of the 3000 hit club in July of 2011. Jeter is thefirst Yankee to ever reach this milestone.

The REACTOR Watch... I first met Jimmy Olmes at the jewelry show in Las Vegas 3 years ago. The entrepreneur recounted a fascinating story of how he invented Reactor watches. He is one of the most passionate and tenacious men I know. Jimmy spent 20 years of his life creating and building the Freestyle watch line which was an inexpensive timepiece used primarily by surfing enthusiasts. Jimmy sold the company and in 2002 set out to build the "best performance sports watch on the planet"REACTOR. In 2003, REACTOR was born. After spending 2 hours with Jimmy, I knew this was a watch line I wanted in all Day's stores. Here are a few features of REACTOR and why it is a ...
