People LOVED our mistletoe flip book video featuring eRelyx spokesmodel Jennifer Welsh. So, we decided to make another one – this time while she’s dreaming of a white Christmas in the garland-decorated window seat. Check out Jennifer wearing a Tag Heuer Formula 1, Omega Speedmaster, and Cartier Tank Francaise! Amazing!!!

Dreaming of a White (Watch) Christmas at eRelyx
Wednesday, December 21st, 2011Holiday Gift: Rolex Submariner Date
Wednesday, December 21st, 2011If you’re buying someone a watch as a gift, this may be the best possible choice. Sure, there are more expensive watches out there, but the Rolex Submariner Date is an absolute classic. Probably one of the most popular and recognizable watches on the planet. It’s versatile – the stainless steel with black dial and bezel goes with anything – suits, sweats, scuba gear, you name it. It’s a great investment – I can’t guarantee it, but if you buy a pre-owned model, own it for five years, and then decide to sell it, you’ll probably get your money back (and then some given the way Rolex raises prices!).
We have a couple of pre-owned models in stock at eRelyx. The one below is an F-serial number (2004 model) complete with EVERYTHING – boxes, papers, manual, hang tags, polishing cloth, AND the anchor. WOW!
New Submariner models sell for ~$8,000. This pre-owned model is available at eRelyx for just over $5,000. Click here for more details on the Rolex Submariner Date.

Simon Cowell and his Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Grande Tradition Tourbillon à Quantième Perpétuel
Wednesday, December 21st, 2011Wow. It’s good to have money, right? Simon Cowell of X-Factor and American Idol fame loves to spend it – on cars, homes, deep v-necks, and watches. He has Ecclestone-like spending habits. Check out the watch on his wrist at an X-Factor event the other day. It looks like a Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Grande Tradition Tourbillon à Quantième Perpétuel. Not too shabby. That one retails for ~$160K!!

2. A digital camera that lets you take hundreds of pictures in hopes of capturing a few good ones (which is easy given that we had Jennifer Welsh for #1.)

An eRelyx Christmas Wish List: Rolex Datejust
Tuesday, December 20th, 2011An eRelyx Dream Christmas:
My Real-Life Christmas List:
(Clockwise from Top): 1. My bare apartment walls could use some livening up. I love this watercolor print by Caitlin McGauley of my favorite New York City location- Gramercy Park.
2. On a recent trip to NYC I tried my very first Macarons & I’m completely obsessed. Since I doubt a plane ticket to Paris is in my future, I’m asking for the next best thing- a box of treats from Boston’s best- Flour Bakery.
3.This one’s been on the wish list for the last 10 Christmases. A vintage Chanel handbag in the brand’s most iconic style. Swoon.
4. I recently had a “candle-epiphany”- where I finally realized the purpose, and power, of a scented candle- It kills odor like no air freshener can, and creates an incredible ambiance. These Diptyque candles are so decadent, so transformative- they’ve become one of those little luxuries I can’t help craving.
5. I’ve been dying to get my hands on some of these stackable jewel-tone rings that are so popular lately- Individually or piled on, these rings from The Julie Collection, are absolutely to die for.
6. Since I was about 16- its become a sort of Christmas-gift-tradition to receive an overpriced, totally unnecessary and utterly beautiful coffee table book from my parents. This year’s choice? 100 Years of Fashion Illustration- a perfect amalgam of (all my favorite subjects!) Art, Fashion & History.
7. Last, but definitely not least, what’s topping my list this year? Well…what else but a gorgeous luxury watch, of course! I love everything about this pre-owned Rolex Datejust-
-from the gold case to the sumptuous brown leather strap to the over-sized masculine look. Not only is this piece a great investment (Rolex watches tend to appreciate in value, especially when there is gold involved, and buying pre-owned saves you a bundle to start!), but I love that it’s a total departure from my every-day classic- the Cartier Tank Francaise.
I cant help but adore this watch’s ability to feel both laid-back as well as luxe, and transition from casual-wear to a statement making piece. Its the “luxury vintage” vibe of this Rolex that really has me hoping I made Santa’s ‘Nice List’ this year!
Holiday Gift: Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Quartz
Monday, December 19th, 2011Looking for a last minute gift that is sure to impress? This Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra is a great option. It’s an Omega – one of the hottest watch brands out there. It’s stainless steel with a silver dial – very versatile. And it’s a great value – we have an unworn model available at eRelyx for 20% off retail price!! It is normally $2,700, but we are offering to our clients for $2,160.
The watch is stainless steel with a 38.5mm case, silver dial, quartz movement, sapphire crystal, and is water resistant to 150M. It is unworn and comes with the inner and outer boxes, manual, card holder, and pictogram card.
Model: 231.10.39.61.02.001

Melissa Rycroft and Tye Strickland Celebrate “Winter in Venice”
Sunday, December 18th, 2011Reality star Melissa Rycroft and husband Tye Strickland were at the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas to celebrate “Winter in Venice” over the weekend.
Melissa almost ended up with The Bachelor’s Jason Mesnick, but that relationship exploded on national television. Fortunately Melissa was able to move on and find love with Tye Strickland. And what’s not to love? Check out that amazing watch!!
Thanks to the help of a couple of WatchTalkForum members (thanks ulackfocus, bryce124 and CMoore), we determined that Tye may be wearing a very fancing Breitling Tourbillion. More specifically, the Breitling for Bentley Mulliner Tourbillon. Much like the Bentley cars, that watch likely costs six figures.

The Kardashians – First Family of Watches
Friday, December 16th, 2011A couple of things to get off of my chest:
1. We all see way too much of the Kardashians, so I apologize for adding to their exposure. But, they wear amazing watches.
2. I’m probably the only guy in the world (save Christian Louboutin) that noticed that Kylie is wearing Kim’s shoes from her trip to Dubai. Click here if you don’t believe me.
Now – onto the watches. The entire Kardashian Krew was in Vegas this week for the grand opening of their store, Kardashian Khaos. Not sure exactly what they sell – and I don’t want to get in trouble by guessing. During their stint on the red carpet, Kris and Rob Kardashian could be seen wearing hot watches. I’m 99.99% sure that Scott Disick was wearing a Rolex or an Audemars Piguet, but his suit sleeve is covering his wrist.
Check out the pics from the event.
