Baselworld 2015: New Hamilton Ventura “Elvis80” and Worldtimer Chrono (Updated with Live Photos)
Among the new Hamilton watches released at the world’s biggest watch fair this week: the Hamilton Ventura Elvis80, in honor of the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll’s 80th birthday; and the Hamilton Chrono Worldtimer, an aviator-friendly new world-time watch.Elvis Presley �� who would have turned 80 years old this year, on January 8 �� famously wore a Hamilton Ventura watch in the 1961 movie Blue Hawaii. Afterward, that timepiece, which was introduced in 1957 as the world’s first “electric watch” and distinguished by its avant-garde triangular case, became widely known as the “Elvis watch.” Hamilton’s new version of the Ventura embraces its connection with the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, and even includes a nod to the 80th-birthday motif: Hamilton has outfitted it with the recently introduced Hamilton H-10 movement, which carries an estimable power reserve of 80 hours.The Hamilton Ventura Elvis80 carries all of the classic Ventura de

Guest Editor Of New Luxury Magazine "High"
Those of you in Singapore can pick up a copy of High magazine - which recently hit newsstands. It published by MediaCorp, and it's about watches, jewelry, fashion, lifestyle, and health. All for high-net worth individuals. I am proud to be one of the guest editors, and it was really cool to see my name right there on the cover.It should come as no surprise that I write about watches in the magazine. The magazine is also both in English and Chinese. A fellow guest editor is actually Dr. Andrew Weil who is a really well-known doctor who writes books about healthy living.

This integrated look is always a bonus. The case is 45mm wide in steel and water resistant to 100 meters. Some models are polished while others are polished and then done in IP black.

Different brands have different names for this, but the idea is to offer the scratch resistance of an all sapphire crystal in a less expensive watch.Aside from the case the three-hand and chronograph models have totally different dials. Each has Swiss movements �C ISA for the three-hand, and Ronda for the chronograph. The three-hand model is
