The Rainbow Watches Trend for Summer 2019

Summer is a time to embrace all things colorful. That’s why King Jewelers wants to share some of the top trending timepieces that feature fashionable rainbow designs. Several luxury timepiece brands have strayed away from classic watch colors, and have released special edition rainbow watches to add a bit more color to their collections.

A rectangular white gold case houses 28 round-cut diamonds, framing the celestial diamond-embellished dial. A moon phase indicator rests at six o’clock directly below the minute and hour hands, making this quartz movement equally as functional as it is breathtaking.

A mother-of-pearl dial with rose gold detailing houses seven loose brilliant-cut colored gemstones, in Chopard fashion. In addition, this watch features diamond-encrusted lugs, leading us to a rose gold link bracelet.

Jonathan King Featured in Revolution

Posted on July 28, 2017 by Make Technology

Jonathan King, Partner and Director of Sales, King Jewelers, Appears Alongside Leaders of the Watch Industry in Revolution Magazine to Discuss Trends in Online Sales

Our very own Jonathan King appears in the latest edition of Revolution magazine alongside titans of the watch industry (including CEO of TAG Heuer, Zenith, and Hublot Jean-Claude Biver, CEO of Montblanc Nicolas Baretzki, and Co-President of Chopard Karl-Friedrich Scheufele, among others) to discuss the ever-growing and changing online retail scene.
Below, Mr. King explains in his own words how the watch industry is slowly evolving to incorporate a more robust online presence, and highlights what sets brick-and-mortar stores like King Jewelers apart from online-only sellers.
Be sure to pick up your copy of Revolution magazine and click here to read the article in full.
Jonathan King, Partner and Director of Sales, King Jewelers:
Nowadays, most people’s first point of contact with a watch brand or a jeweler is through the web. People find out about their next jeweler either via word of mouth or via an Internet search.
What we do notice is that we sell a lot of lower to mid-tier items on the site, but we have not yet made a significant watch sale through the web. A large percentage of our high-ticket transactions come from the initial discovery of our business through the web. The website allows people the comfort and luxury of browsing through our merchandise at their leisure, whenever they have time.
I think, in the future, just about everything will migrate online. The idea of brick-and-mortar is becoming less relevant. I think there will be a larger shift of the traffic from in-store to the web. Ultimately, I think a much greater percentage of transactions will be done online.
There will always be a need for the brick-and-mortar, which distinguishes companies like King Jewelers from people who are dealing only online. People are still looking for the credibility of the company, the warranty, the sizing and repair aspect.
When it comes to taking the knowledge to the next step, that’s where the salesman really comes into play, explaining the timepiece and guiding them to the right one. There will always be the need for the personal touch. There is a lot more than just purchasing online, you are going to need to service the watch, learn how to use it, buy new straps and have it sized. The relationship between the client and the store is very important as well for service and for future sales. We know every client by their name when they walk in, we know their birthdays, their anniversaries, their likes and dislikes.
Brick-and-mortar, multi-brand retailers are needed, so people can compare watches and see how they feel. We have been in business for more than 100 years, and we understand how to cultivate our clients. The brand boutiques and e-boutiques serve the purpose of information and image building. Many of our customers go see the watches in the boutiques, and then they come here and buy, because they have the relationship with us.

David's Picks: SIHH 2017

Posted on January 26, 2017 by Make Technology

David King Picks His Favorite Timepieces from SIHH 2017

This year’s SIHH 2017 show in Geneva was nothing less than spectacular. The theme of the show was a balance of exceptional haute horology creations (the $1MM watch from Vacheron Constantin) with a strong focus on everyday, affordable luxury (Cartier reintroduced the Panther collection in steel that retails under $5,000).
In total, SIHH 2017 included a record 30 brands from leading manufactures like A.Lange & Söhne, Audemars Piguet, Baume & Mercier, Cartier, Girard-Perregaux, Greubel Forsey, IWC, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Montblanc, Panerai, Parmigiani, Piaget, Richard Mille, Roger Dubuis, Ulysse Nardin, Van Cleef & Arpels, and Vacheron Constantin, just to name a few.
Let’s recap our favorite watch releases from the SIHH 2017 show in Geneva.

Favorite Men’s World Time Watch: Jaeger-LeCoultre Geophysic Tourbillon Universal Time

This watch from Jaeger-LeCoultre marks the first time a flying tourbillon complication has been included on a world timer. The execution is elegant and the tourbillon complication is seamlessly integrated into the dial design . Price: $145,000

Favorite Collector Watch: Officine Panerai LAB-ID Luminor 1950 Carbotech 3 Days

Our favorite watch has minimalistic, cool blue dial accents that’s housed in a radical new material called “carbotech,” which is created through a process of fusing many layers of carbon under high pressure. Panerai is so confident in this new technology that this watch comes with a fifty year warranty. Wow! According to the brand, it’s lighter and more stress-resistant than titanium. The dial is made up of tiny black nanotubes, which absorb light and create the appearance of a black that is even darker than a normal black. There will be only 50 made for the world (so good luck acquiring one!) but this watch will be a superstar within any watch collection. Price: 50,000 CHF

Favorite Ladies Watch: Cartier Panthère de Cartier Spot Watch

The Panther is officially back. An icon in the watch world, the Panthère de Cartier watch collection was initially launched in 1983, and was in production all the way through the early 2000s when it was discontinued. For 2017, Cartier has reinstated the Panthère watch collection in two sizes, and nine metals and/or finishes.

The showstopper at the Geneva fair was this Cartier Panthère de Cartier Spot Watch in 18kt white gold with diamonds which is directly inspired by the spotted panther motif. This exceptional ladies timepieces was extensively explored by Cartier’s legendary and charismatic design director, Jeanne Toussaint.

Favorite Independent Watch Release: MB&F HM7 Aquapod Tourbillon Diving-Style Watch

Once again Max Busser rocks the world of haute horology with this bold and out-of-the-box tourbillon that is sure to turn some heads at the country club.

So there you have it, David King’s favorite timepieces from SIHH 2017! For up-to-date information on which fabulous new releases will be shown at the 2017 Nashville Watch Fair, visit their website.

The New TUDOR North Flag

Posted on February 18, 2016 by Make Technology

Warm Up Your Wrist With The TUDOR North Flag

Today it’s cloudy and cold here at our luxury salon in Nashville, Tennessee and it has us thinking about one of the latest new additions to the already impressive TUDOR lineup. TUDOR, as you may know, is the sister brand to Rolex; their timepieces are made with the same top-quality materials and perfection-seeking craftsmanship that Rolex is known for, but at a much more affordable price point.
Not too long ago, TUDOR introduced the North Flag timepiece. This sporty watch is meant for an adventurer who needs to be able to count on the fact that his timepiece will be in perfect working order at any given time. The North Flag seems to have at least been somewhat inspired by the TUDOR Oyster Prince, which was worn by all the party members of the British North Greenland Expedition of the early 1950s. As members of that expedition relied heavily on their timepieces to survive the harsh wilderness, TUDOR understands the importance of creating a reliable tool watch. While it’s unlikely that you’ll find yourself in those same extreme conditions, the North Flag timepiece aims reassure the wearer that should the worst arise, your watch will continue to exceed your expectations.

Visit Our Online TUDOR Portal Here!

The North Flag is available in two variations- steel on a black leather strap and steel on a steel bracelet. The leather model features yellow stitching along the strap, a subtle but striking complement to the yellow power reserve and seconds hand on the dial. At 40mm, the case is large but not uncomfortably so. It features a black dial with luminescent white indicators, 12 and 6 numerals, and hands for easy visibility. A power reserve indicator is featured at the 9 o’clock position, with a date display window opposite at the 3 o’clock position. It is covered by an anti-reflective, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and has a screw down crown for increased water resistance.
The North Flag has the distinction of being one of the first TUDOR models to be fitted with the Manufacture TUDOR MT5621 Movement. This movement was the first to be developed and produced by the brand and it is visible through the sapphire crystal case back.It is a self-winding mechanical movement with a bidirectional rotor system which has been officially certified by the COSC. It has a frequency of 28,800 beats per hour (4 Hz), is 33.8mm in diameter, 6.5mm thick, 28 jewels, and has a 70 hour power reserve. You can learn more about North Flag timepiece and TUDOR’s MT5621 movement by visiting their official website. You can schedule an appointment to view the North Flag in person and try it on for yourself by calling our Nashville salon at 615-724-5464
