David King Featured in Revolution USA Magazine

David King,President of King Jewelers Nashville, Featured Alongside Gibson Guitars and Raymond Weil in Winter 2017 Edition of Revolution USA Magazine

Raymond Weil has long been a supporter of the music industry, with special edition watches dedicated to Frank Sinatra, The Beatles, David Bowie, and Bob Marley, among others. It’s no surprise that the brand eventually pursued a partnership with Gibson Guitars, juggernaut of the music industry and leading manufacturer of guitars. With Gibson’s ties to Nashville and the city’s reigning status of Music City USA, it makes sense that King Jewelers, the authorized Raymond Weil dealer in Nashville, would feature heavily in the promotion of the product.
The Raymond Weil and Gibson Guitars partnership has since yielded two Gibson watches; the Nabucco Nashville edition, based off the Gibson SG Standard, was debuted to much fanfare at an exclusive party hosted by King Jewelers in 2015, and now a Freelancer inspired by the Gibson Les Paul has been released to even greater acclaim. To further investigate what makes this partnership tick, Editor-in-Chief of Revolution USA Keith Strandberg visited Nashville to see what all the fuss was about.

During his stay in Music City, Strandberg visited King Jewelers to talk with David King about Nashville’s booming growth and why King feels the Gibson/Raymond Weil partnership was a match made in music heaven. David’s passion project, Rock Royalty, also makes an appearance throughout the article. Rock Royalty creates one-of-a-kind custom guitars for the musician (or music fan) in your life.
Pick up a copy of the Winter 2017 edition of Revolution USA magazine to learn more about Strandberg’s trip to Tennessee and read why he feels the watch industry and the guitar industry are more alike than they are different. Be sure to visit King Jewelers to explore Raymond Weil’s impressive watch lineup, and to shop the limited Gibson timepieces.

Swiss Watches Under $6,000

Posted on June 20, 2017 by Make Technology

Swiss-Made Watches for $6,000 or Less!

Not all high-end Swiss timepieces come with a 5 digit price tag! With modern technology, shoppers can now oftentimes find a fine Swiss watch for less than $6,000, which means it’s easier than ever to start a luxury timepiece collection. We spoke with Mark, an associate in our Nashville store who has more than 35 years of jewelry and watch experience, to discuss how the watch industry has changed in the last few decades, and to see a few of his favorite watches under $6,000.

The Driver: TAG Heuer Monaco

Of the three watches Mark talked to us about, the TAG Heuer Monaco (CAW2111.FC6183) certainly has the most distinctive look. The square case and blue strap make it stand out from the classic round case, black strap watches that most men gravitate towards in their first major watch purchase. This watch was featured in the classic Steve McQueen film, Le Mans, and it’s seen a few updates since that time. The modern TAG Heuer movement is far more accurate than it was 40 years ago, and the sapphire crystal covering the dial (which is scratch-resistant) is a big step up from the plastic covers of old.

The Diver: TUDOR Black Bay Steel & Gold

TUDOR released the Black Bay Steel & Gold (M79733N-0002) at Basel this year and so far it’s been a huge hit. This marks the first time that the Black Bay has been available in steel and yellow gold. The Black Bay Steel & Gold is one of the only Black Bay timepieces which features a date function (along with the Black Bay Steel and the Black Bay Chronograph, also released at Basel this year.) The unidirectional rotating bezel and screw-down crown make it a true diver’s watch, and it’s water-resistant to 660 feet.

The Pilot’s Watch: IWC Pilot Chronograph

IWC, or International Watch Company, has consistently been a leader in Swiss-made sport watches. Their Pilot watches, as we’ve discussed in the past, are hugely popular among celebrities like John Travolta and John Mayer. With a chronograph function, day-date function, and Santoni leather strap all included in the $4,950 price tag, you’re definitely getting the most out of your money with the IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph (IW377709).

3) Liven up his trips to the boardroom with these stylish Chopard Mille Miglia cufflinks, which pay tribute to the world of Ferrari racing. The rubber inserts, which feature the Dunlop tire-tread, are sure to be a cool conversation starter.

4) TAG Heuer is one of our favorite watch brands for graduates looking to start their own fine timepiece collection. For a new twist on a classic favorite, check out the Black Titanium Carrera Day-Date Chronograph.

5) Take on all of life’s unexpected adventures with the person you love by your side. Our unparalleled selection of diamond engagement rings are available in every size, shape, and budget.

6) For the man who loves the artistry of Swiss timepieces and all the conveniences of modern technology, you can’t go wrong with the Breitling Exospace B55 connected watch. This Swiss-made chronograph connects to an app on your smart phone with functionalities that are particularly useful for pilots and those traveling frequently.

7) For the fashion-forward graduate, check out these 18K rose gold and diamond feather earrings, inspired by the Bohemian Chic style of Los Angeles. These whimsical earrings will be the perfect statement piece to take your graduate from a day at the office to a night on the town. They’re also available in 18K yellow gold, if that’s more your taste.

8) Graduation marks an exciting and important change in your life; it’s time to go make your mark on the world with this classic IWC Portofino Hand-Wound Eight Day Timepiece. As the name implies, this 45mm timepiece comes with an impressive eight day power reserve when fully wound.

Jaquet Droz Eclipse Onyx in Nashville, TN

Jaquet Droz Eclipse Onyx in Nashville, TN: A closer look at the sporty Jaquet Droz

This week on Collector’s Corner, we try on the creative and minimal 43mm Steel Jaquet Droz Eclipse Onyx at our Nashville location. We are instantly drawn to the carved black onyx dial and the disc at 6 o’clock that works with the moon-phase complication. This timepiece is incredibly beautiful! The aesthetic is classic and understated which allows the delicate details to truly stand out. The intricate details of the smiling rhodium moon is charming and the 8 radiating rhodium-plated star-shaped appliques are borrowed from the Jaquet Droz logo. The rhodium-plated hour, minute, and date hands are all sharp and clean making it very easy to read. The date and day window is found tucked neatly below the Jaquet Droz logo at 12 o’clock. The smooth contrast between the extremely dark onyx and the steel case and appliques works in harmony to give this timepiece a sleek and masculine feel.

This mesmerizing watch is powered by an automatic Jaquet Droz 6553L2 calibre movement that is double barreled with 26 jewels. Not only does this movement power the moon phase complication but also includes an impressive 68-hour power reserve. It’s water resistant to 30 meters and is paired with a black rolled-edge alligator strap and steel pin-buckle that takes this timepiece to another level of cool. This is the watch that is truly versatile and can hit a wide range of the style spectrum. It would look incredible with a clean modern suit or even accessorized with textured John Hardy jewelry for a laid back rock and roll attitude
