Since it was launched, Rado Integral Jubile collection has been quite well-received with simple elegance. Now this hot watch collection is further enriched by a new ladies watch that is small and attractive. According Rado, this watch will be just sold at the brand’s watch boutiques and a few special authorized stores.
The replica watch comes with a rectangular case whose sides are nicely decorated by 58 brilliant-cut diamonds. Not sure what material the case is made from. It looks like stainless steel but I know it is not as Rado seldom uses ordinary materials to make their watches. I guess it should be a kind of ceramic with platinum color. The simple case structure includes a winding crown in moderate size.The dial also features minimalism style. Having no any markers, the dial just uses two hands to tell the hours and markers.
The strap tries to add a feminine touch to the watch. Rather than in the same material as the case, it is made from graceful satin. There colors are available, including soft cream, light blue and deep purple. I have to say, the strap is a beautiful complemented touch of the watch.
Inside this new Rado Jublie ladies watch is a high quality Swiss quartz movement. Simple, elegant and feminine, this watch is a perfect solution for any woman who wants to add a nice model to her watch collection. And retail price is around 2,200 euros.
Now, replica Rado watches are sold directly online at their official site. So I wonder if this exclusive will be available online as well.

Scrap gold can come about in almost any form. Earrings, bracelets, rings, you name it there are countless items of gold that can be melted down for scrap gold.
There are also various types of gold such as 9,18,24 carrat gold. Scrap gold is gold in just about any form, enclosed within many products. Even gold coins can be loosely defined as scrap gold. When you hear the term scrap gold, you usually think of the gold contained within many technology products like motherboards in computers, cell phones or broken necklaces and bracelets. The metal content in any items vary. 24kt is pure gold, no alloy is mixed in with this gold. However, pure gold is soft and is usually mixed with an alloy for strength. Your job is to determine what karat of it that you own, and then do a little math work.
31.1 grams of gold equals 1 troy ounce, which at the present time is surpassing $1,000 per ounce. Using this information, you will have to weigh your jewelry and then subtract the alloy weight. This will give you a rough estimate of the value of gold you have. Naturally, when you go to sell it, there is a commission involved and you will receive somewhat less. Gold coins might have a numismatic value, due to rarity, that will add dollars to the value of the gold content. However, you will get a pretty good estimate of how much your scrap gold is worth, which is necessary when selling or buying.

A bracelet is an article of clothing or jewelry, which is worn around the wrist. Bracelets can be manufactured from cloth or metal, and sometimes contain rocks, wood, and/or shells. Bracelets are also used for medical and identification purposes such as allergy bracelets and hospital tags. In the late 1980s, “snap bracelets”, felt-covered metal bracelets that curved around one’s wrist when gently hit against it, were a popular fad.
Nike and Lance Armstrong popularized the recent use of colored silicone rubber as a material for producing sports bracelets through the Yellow Livestrong band. Its success has led to the use of these ‘awareness’ bracelets as low cost tools for information campaigns and charity projects. These sports bracelets are also known otherwise as ‘baller id bands’, ‘wristbands’ or ‘baller bands’.
The in-line thin diamond bracelet that features a symmetrical pattern of diamonds is called a tennis bracelet. According to Diamond Bug, in 1987 Chris Evert, the former World No. 1 woman tennis player and the winner of 18 Grand Slam singles titles, was playing in the U.S. Open. She was wearing an elegant, light in-line diamond bracelet, which accidentally broke and the match was interrupted to allow Chris to recover her precious diamonds. The ‘tennis bracelet’ incident sparked a new name for the item and sparked a huge jewelry trend. Tennis bracelets continued to be worn by various tennis stars like Serena Williams and Gabriela Sabatini.
Although the term ‘armlet’ may be technically similar, it is taken to mean an item that sits on the upper arm. The origin of the term ‘bracelet’ is from the Latin ‘brachile’ meaning ‘of the arm’, via the Old French ‘barcel’. Taken in the plural, bracelets is often use as slang for handcuffs.
Wristbands
Wristbands are encircling strips worn on the wrist, made of any of a variety of materials depending on the purpose. The term can be used to refer to the bracelet-like band of a wristwatch, to the cuff or other part of a sleeve that covers the wrist, or to decorative or functional bands worn on the wrist for other reasons.
One common type of wristband is the loops of plastic or tyvek that are placed around the wrist for identification purposes (demonstrating the wearer’s authorization to be at a venue, for example).
Silicone wristbands
More recently, wristbands, often made of silicone, are worn to demonstrate the wearer’s support of a cause or charitable organization, similar to awareness ribbons. Such wristbands are sometimes called symbands to distinguish them from other types of wristbands.
One of the first charitable organizations to make use of silicone wristbands as a way of demonstrating support for a cause was the yellow Livestrong wristband created in 2004 by the Lance Armstrong Foundation. By early 2005, symbands became popular with many charities, such as Make Poverty History and the BBC’s Beat Bullying campaign.
There is also another type of Wristband called Web band. It is an online version of the real wristband.

What was at one time, in the earliest years of take-away wrist watches, seen to be unsuitable for men and only for ladies, has developed now into a fashion utensil that every man has. Meanwhile, the wristwatch is no longer only a instrument to tell which time it is.
The turn of the 20th century on the wrist
With the turn of the 20th century, another level of technical progress was reached, which made it possible to put the mechanics in an even smaller space. It was now possible to build the clockworks in such a manner that people were able to fasten them to a wristband without a problem. The practical application of this innovational discovery allowed the pocket watch to be quickly replaced by the wristwatch. It quickly became the fashion to wear a wrist watch. It looked like the models sprouted from the ground and the diversity built with extended speed. In the early years, however, wristwatches were used only by women. Men did not wear timepieces on their wrists. It just wasn’t done. The war brought a change of mind concerning this. The soldiers quickly recognized the advantage of a watch on the wrist, which didn’t have to be pulled out of the bag first. And in this way, the wrist watch prevailed with the male sex.
Away from the mechanical - on to electronics
While the first wristwatches were still being wound, some inventions developed in relation to the mechanics. The automatic wristwatch came out, which no longer had to be wound by hand, but was wound automatically through the movement of the clock. Afterwards, at the end of the 20’s, the quartz watch was invented. Time was indicated here by the so-called electronic oscillating circuit. Mens watches

Nowadays, we all know a diamond engagement ring is the most important jewelry purchase in a man’s life and the most significant to the woman who receives it. Diamond is the birthstone of people born in the month of April and is also used as the symbol of a sixty-year anniversary, such as a Diamond Jubliee.
However, the symbolism of diamonds goes beyond romance. Through centuries diamonds have been a symbol of love, excellence and purification. Diamond, because of its remarkable hardness and clarity, also still reigns supreme in its symbolism of power, strength, brilliance and unparalleled beauty. Diamonds are enchanting treasures that have fascinated mankind throughout the centuries. Many regarded them as magical. Not only were they rare and beautiful, no tool could cut them and even the fiercest fire would leave the diamonds unscathed.
Diamonds have been used symbolically because of their extraordinary physical properties. It was said that the Greeks believed diamonds were tears of the gods. Romans believed they were splinters of fallen stars. In Tibetan Buddhism, also known as Vajrayana (Diamond Vehicle), diamonds are an important symbol and the Diamond Sutra is one of the most popular texts.
In ancient India, diamonds were not cut for fear that they would lose its magical properties. During the Middle Ages, it was believed that diamonds would grow darker in the face of guilt and shine brightly for the innocent. Another belief is that in the presence of poison, diamond would also change color. The rainbow colors of the prism were thought to give one magical power over Evil Eyes.
According to occultist myths, it was believed that diamonds possess several supernatural powers, e.g. a diamond’s hardiness can only be broken by smearing it with fresh goat’s blood. Or a diamond gives victory to he who carries it bound on his left arm, no matter the number of enemies.
It was also believed to have been used as a healing stone. Such as a way of detecting and detoxifying poison, opening spirituality channels and assisting calming creatures.
Today, diamonds are used to symbolize eternity and love. The first diamond engagement ring can be traced to the XV century, when the Archduke Maximilian of Austria gave the first diamond ring engagement to Mary of Burgundy in 1477. At that time, the diamond was used in its natural crystalline structure. The octahedral or eight-sided formation, like 2 pyramid joined at the base, was mounted with the lower pyramid completely hidden in the ring setting and the upper half rising out of it. Light would be reflected from all four sides of this exposed upper point. The structure of this diamond mirrors the symbolism of the Egyptian pyramids. The union in 1477 was celebrated by the exchange of a diamond betrothal ring which would have been an early example and perhaps the first royal one.
Other early example of betrothal jewels incorporating diamonds include the Bridal Crown of Blanche (ca. 1370-80) and the Heftlein brooch of Vienna (ca. 1430-40), a pictorial piece depicting a wedding couple. In the 19th century, Napoleon gave his wife Marie Louise an exquisite diamond necklace on the birth of their son. Perhaps the most published romantic diamond gifts in modern times have been the jewels given by Richard Burton to Elizabeth Taylor. These include a 33 carat diamond worth over $9 million and the pear-shaped 69 carat Taylor-Burton diamond.

There are a number of Irish Wedding Rings that include Spirals, Triskeles, and Triquetas, Shield Knots and Sun Symbols. The most popular ring by far is the Irish Claddagh and it is surrounded by a romantic legend.
The Claddagh is as was said, the most popular in Ireland. The ring symbolizes love, friendship , and loyalty. The ring is named for an Irish fishing village. The design of the Claddagh is constructed of two hands holding a heart with a crown on top of it. The hands represent friendship, the heart represents love, and the crown represents loyalty.
Various traditions give different meanings to the ring depending on how it is worn. As a wedding ring it is worn on the left hand with the heart pointing inward to the wrist. As an engagement ring it is on the right hand with the heart pointing inward toward the wrist. For friendship it is worn on the right hand turned outward.
The legend of the Claddagh begins when a fisherman Richard Joyce and other crew members were captured by pirates shortly before Joyce was to be married. He was sold into slavery in Algiers and made the property of a goldsmith who taught him the craft of goldsmith. Joyce became the master of the craft. With is beloved back in Claddagh on his mind he fashioned the first Claddagh ring. The hands were to represent friendship, the heart was love, and the crown represented loyalty and fidelity.
In 1698 King Georges III agreed to free all of his subjects. Richard Joyce was once again free. His slave master offered Joyce his daughter in marriage and half of his wealth if he would stay in Algiers. Joyce refused the offer and instead returned home to Claddagh where he found his love waiting for him. Neither of them had married. Upon discovering this, Joyce gave his love the ring and they were married shortly thereafter.
The ring was dubbed The Claddagh because of the village Joyce and his Bride were from. There were others who made the ring much later and added jewels and an intricate crown design. The basic hands holding a crowned heart has never changed. Joyce wanted something that would his love for his Beloved.
The Claddagh today is as popular as it ever was. The basic design of the ring has not changed but now there is more intricacies in the crown, gemstones or jewels can be used to fashion the heart, and the hands are simply hands. The ring can be made of silver, gold or basically any metal.
The design is the clasped hands of the ‘fede’ or faith rings. These rings date from Roman times and were popular in the Middle Ages. The ring is worn now by many to speak to their Irish heritage. The Claddagh tells the story of two lovers who are separated and yet their love and commitment withstood the passage of time. It’s simple design and my heritage influenced my decision to purchase a Claddagh.
