Make Time for a Special Watch in 2020

Mike Levine

Why not ring in the New Year with a lovely, new watch. (You thought we were going to say “ring,” right?)

David Craig Jewelers proudly offers traditional watch styles and unique designs from a variety of today’s top timepiece manufacturers. Thinking about treating yourself or a loved one to a watch that will stand the test of time? How about a pre-owned Rolex? These watches, probably the most recognized name in watchmaking, are crafted with the finest raw materials and a superb attention to detail that is hard to beat. They retain their value even after use. Purchase a pre-owned watch for a man or woman and we’ll guarantee it with a two-year warranty.

 

Rolex History
Hans Wilsdorf and his brother-in-law Alfred Davis founded the Rolex company in London in 1905. The Rolex website says that Wilsdorf came up with the name* which he thought would be easy to pronounce in any language and would look good on the watch movements and dials. And boy, was he right! The company eventually moved to Geneva, Switzerland.

Virtually anyone in the world today recognizes this exquisite brand. It was the first wristwatch to receive the “Swiss Certificate of Chronometric Precision” award. And certain Rolexes have become collector’s items. Many are in like-new condition. In 2017, Paul Newman’s Rolex Cosmograph Daytona sold for $17.8 million, making it one of the most expensive Rolexes ever sold!

Not into Rolexes for 2020? We offer many good-looking watches from Citizen, Bulova and Seiko from $100 on up.

Speaking of made-up company names, you might not know that the Häagen-Dazs name was also invented by, in this case, an American couple from Brooklyn, Reuben and Rose Mattus. They gave the yummy ice cream a Danish-sounding name in tribute to Denmark’s treatment of its Jewish population during WWII.
