May Birthstone

Emerald
The name emerald is derived from the Greek word, smaragdus, meaning green in greek. History records date emeralds being mined as early as
220 B. C. in Egypt. Today, most of the world’s emeralds are mined in Colombia, Brazil, Afghanistan, and Zambia. The availability of high-quality emerald is limited; consequently, treatments to improve clarity are performed regularly. An emerald, a symbol of rebirth, is believed to grant the owner foresight, good fortune, and youth. Legends gave emerald the power to make its wearer more intelligent and quick-witted.

Rolex 2012 Collection featuring the Sky-Dweller

Exciting news!

Rolex has just announced their new watches for 2012 on their website, including the brand new model: the Sky-Dweller.

With this announcement, Rolex unveils updated versions of their popular oyster perpetual time pieces: the Submariner, Yacht-Master, Datejust, Datejust II, Daytona, Lady-Datejust & Datejust Lady 31, Day-Date, and Day-Date II. As exciting as the updates are on the current mechanical watches (like the new bright and colorful Daytona), nothing is more breathtaking than the all new Sky-Dweller.

As Rolex says it the best, the Sky-Dweller is “for those who travel the world…the first Rolex with two time zones and an annual calendar that discretely marks the passage of months.” Here is a closer look at the details of this first generation Sky-Dweller…

The Sky-Dweller is an oyster perpetual time piece with a certified chronometer Calibre 9001 movement. This new watch features a 42mm case with a bidirectional rotating fluted bezel in either 18K yellow gold, white gold, or EVEROSE gold with a champagne, ivory, or chocolate dial. The Sky-Dweller features a 24 hour display, second time zone, and has the function of differentiating between 30 and 31 day months via the ground breaking SAROS system. The SAROS system is an internal mechanism consisting of a gear wheel and a satellite wheel that imitate the movement and alignment patterns of the Moon, the Earth, and the Sun. The watch also features a month display via twelve apertures around the circumference of the dial.

This latest collection from Rolex has groundbreaking innovations, edgy designs, and fascinating technology. Click on the link below to watch the video, read more about SAROS, and pictures, and explore so much more of the Rolex Sky-Dweller.

This highly anticipated new-comer will surely be one to watch (pun intended). Although it has not been released to the public quite yet, pricing and availability information will be secured shortly…so be sure to keep an eye out for THE BIG RELEASE! For the time being, you can get a in depth look at the Sky-Dweller below…

Rolex Sky-Dweller: The Visual Experience

March Birthstone

Aquamarine

The name aquamarine is derived from the Latin word aqua, meaning water, and marina, meaning the sea.  This gemstone was believed to protect sailors, as well as to guarantee a safe voyage.  The serene color of aquamarine is said to cool the temper, allowing the wearer to remain calm and levelheaded.  Its pale, cool color beautifully complements spring and summer wardrobes.  Aquamarine is most often light in tone and ranges from greenish blue to blue-green; the color usually is more intense in larger stones.  This gemstone is mined mainly in Brazil, but also is found in Nigeria, Madagascar, Zambia, Pakistan, and Mozambique.

Bloodstone

The second birthstone for March is bloodstone, a dark-green jasper flecked with vivid red spots of iron oxide.  This ancient stone was used by the Babylonians to make seals and amulets and was believed to have healing powers — especially for blood disorders.  It is sometimes called the martyr’s stone as legend tells that it was created when drops of Christ’s blood stained some jasper at the foot of the cross.  Generally found embedded in rocks or in riverbeds as pebbles, primary sources for this stone are India, Brazil, and Australia.

Historically, the finest amethyst were found in Russia and were featured in much royal European jewelry.  Today, while Brazil is the primary source of this gemstone, fine material can be found elsewhere, especially in Zambia.
