Are You Having Fun Yet?

Thursday, November 29th, 2007

The Watchmeister watches watches!

This is the time of year where everyone is supposed to be happy, psyched up for the holidays, and ready to dine on a multitude of feasts at all the relatives homes. The time where whatever faith you follow, you are putting up the appropriate decorations, trees, lights, menorahs, and I believe that even Kwanzaa uses a specific pattern of lights in it’s celebration. The time of getting all the gift lists together, figuring out what to get for Uncle Fred, and Aunt Jane, and Cousin Lou, and Great Aunt Gertrude, and all the other obscure members of the family that you see exactly one time all year. They usually give a few dollars to the kids in a pretty card, nothing to the adults, but lord help the adult that shuns them in the holiday, they never hear the end of it till the following holiday season, where they are reminded by the entire family not to forget anyone no matter how disliked they may be by the rest of the family, get them a gift like everyone else does. So you add the relative to the list along with all the others you need to get gifts for but after a while you are stuck! How in the world can you remember what you got them every year for the past ten years? And again, lord help you if you give them the same gift a second time, again you hear it till the next year. So here is where I ask you, are you having fun yet? Now, you may not know this, but there is a way to get all the once a year cheapskate relatives gifts that look expensive, but really aren’t. They are so blinged up, they look like they cost thousands of dollars, but in reality, they were less than a hundred dollars. And the best part is, this is actually a type of gift that can be repeated year after year merely by changing brands and styles. So now you are curious, what is this magic gift that is guaranteed to please everyone that gets one every year, that looks expensive but isn’t necessarily of bust the bank price? The answer my curious friends, is a watch from www.KenmarWatches.com. Here you find hundreds of watches to choose from and over 125 brands of watches to select from. And a watch is always appreciated, especially by a by a woman. I say this because women are much more fashion conscious than men. If they are wearing say a blue dress, they will absolutely not want to wear a brown strap watch as a jewelry accessory. BUT, they will however, be more than willing to wear a stainless steel bracelet style watchband because silver is neutral and looks great with any color. So here, I say a bit crassly, you can bling the family bums without breaking the bank! You know that shopping for your family means at least three hours or more of walking all over the shopping center or mall, being jostled and crushed by the crowds, and standing in line to pay, another hour. All this after having spent an hour in traffic just getting to the mall, another hour driving all over the parking lot looking for an open space which you grabbed by cutting someone else off. Then there are yet more lines at the food court and you are starving. And you still have to make the drive home and looking out one anchor store window, you saw that it had started snowing which meant that every bubble gum machine drivers license recipient on one penny will be out and on the roads. The folks that 364 days a year, they drive absolutely no where near the mall. Today, they are all out and either driving like turtles or weaving all over the road. And yet all this is supposed to be fun? The fun part is actually in putting up the decorations, but after the day you had, forget it, let the decorations, the lights and the tree wait, you are plumb tuckered. The solution to a fun holiday. take the list, names only with no gifts next to the names. You log onto the computer with a cup of coffee on the desk next to you. You go to www.KenmarWatches.com, and you start shopping. No mall, no noise, no traffic, no lines, just you and your nice quiet computer doing 5 hours of shopping in twenty minutes, no gas, great prices, and best of all, perfect gifts for everyone on the list. So NOW, if anyone asks you if you are having fun, you can look them right in the eye and say hell yes I am, lets put up the lights!

Shopping at the mall is always a bust

So visit the place with brands you can trust

Holidays should never be called a Bomb

Just remember the site KenmarWatches.com.

Logic, Some Folks Have It, Some Don’t!

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

The Watchmeister watches watches!

There is a phrase that probably goes back several hundred years, it is a simple phrase but their is a meaning behind it. The phrase is”Christmas comes but once a year”! And at one time that phrase did have a lot of significance. It meant that the holiday was something special. A unique holiday that many people of a number of faiths believe was the birthday of their savior. And that the idea of gift giving came from the three wise men bringing gifts to the child. This practice has gone on for thousands of years. However, over the past years, the significance of Chanukkah and Kwanzaa have taken on more meaning as well. As the number of people that celebrate these holidays grows, so does their significance, or so logic would dictate. But it seems to the Watchmeister, that every year, the celebration of the holidays comes earlier and earlier. All of them seem to have become commercial windfalls for the retailers of the world as the time they make the most money. Although here is the big question, do all these stores offer you their best prices in the pre or post holiday time? Logic would dictate that if they want to sell the products the best prices should be pre holiday, to draw in the business. But how many retailers are logical in their thinking? Truth is, not very many. If you watch prices, you will see a gradual increase in prices from most retailers starting several months before the holidays. Their idea of a sale price is the one that the item was months ago before they started jacking them up in anticipation of the holiday rush. Here is where most mall retailers have it made, they have no real catalog to dictate the prices. What they sell for on line is not what they sell for in the store because they make sure that what they show in their on line ads are items not available in the stores and items in the stores are not available on line. So logically, what that means is that they can sell things for any amount that they care to. Are all of them being honest in their price structures? Most likely not, they are in business to make a profit, and how they do it is strictly up to them. So the everyday family, that chases to the mall to buy gifts, has to spend time travelling, time looking for a parking place, time fighting the crowds to get into the mall, fighting still more crowds to get to the stores that they want to get to, wasting still more time in this. Then there is still more time wasted in standing in line to pay for your purchases in a store with half the registers closed because the cashiers are either on lunch, or helping the floor help with customers and restock. Then you fight your way out of the store, back to your car, you fight traffic leaving the mall and then all the looney tunes drivers that only drive at this time of year. And by the time you get home, you are tired, poorer by several hundred to a thousand dollars, and so aggravated you could eat a nail. Now you tell me, is all of this stuff that you put yourself through logical? Your time is worth more than fighting crowds and traffic and the aggravation that goes with it. So my friends, I am here to propose to you a logical, non aggravating, gas saving no crowd way to get all the gifts on your list and never leave home to do it. The logical solution, www.KenmarWatches.com. Yup, that is THE place people. Toys and games are great, I admit, but how many times have you seen the kids ignore the toy(that cost over a hundred bucks) to play with the box it came in! At Kenmar, you can browse over 125 brands of watches, Seiko, Bulova, Casio, Gucci, Timex, and all the others, each with unique watches for every personality. Now, here is the surprise, I mentioned that you don’t know if a retailer is being honest with his pricing? At Kenmar, there is a spot at each watch, Make an Offer! That is right, you see a price you think is to high on a watch you want, you make an offer, if the offer is reasonable, you may get the watch at YOUR price! You simply can not beat that. So, are you going to be logical this year and avoid all the craziness outside? You know what you need to do now, log on to www.KenmarWatches.com.

Spare yourself the aggravation

Folks put themselves through across the nation

Don’t go crazy stay cool and stay calm

The Madness Has Begun!

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

The Watchmeister watches watches!

Well folks, you know that it is officially the holiday season now, not because people are putting up Christmas decorations and lights which to me look ridiculous with no snow, but because shoppers have started lining up at 9:00 at night to go to a store that opens at 5:00 AM! How crazy is that? I can not imagine anything in a store that would be worth not just giving up a nights sleep for, but to sit out in the cold waiting for the store to open. Sheer Madness!!! I heard via the meister underground that at 2:00 AM, there was a parking lot at a mall, totally filled! Let me ask you, if you are in your right mind, would you sit in line at a store all night, or go shopping at a mall at 2:00 AM? What could they possibly have that you need to fight crowds to get at 2AM?  Me, I don’t even leave home to shop. There is absolutely nothing available out there that I can not find from the comfort of my own bedroom on my computer. Besides that, given the rapid development of new big box games and toys every year, to spend three or four hundred dollars on a game that will be obsolete in a year or two, replaced by something even fancier, why buy it? Then each of those big buck items only use games for themselves, one is not compatible with the other. So if you like two different games from two different systems, you need to pop a grand for both systems to get both games, is this worth it? In a year, maybe two at most, you will be shelling out another grand for the new games. All this madness and money is a major waste of your time, your sleep, your gas and your money. There is however a solution. A gift that gives day after day and year after year, never becomes obsolete, does not require long drives to go shopping, sleepless nights, and above all, will not cost you a grand a year unless you want it to. That my friends is a gift of time! By that I mean you don’t need to decide between Wii, x-box, or any of those brands with outrageous prices for the machines, and still more outrageous prices when you go to buy new games! Instead of fighting a croud to grab the last of the one game you want, you simply click your mouse. The secret to the best shopping in the world is no secret to the Watchmeister, the secret is www.KenmarWatches.com. Here you can explore Casio, Gucci, Timex, Nooka, and over 124 other brands but several thousand watches in more styles, colors, shapes and sizes than you ever imagined existed. I want you to do something different this year. Look at the watches, find one you absolutely love, print the photo of that watch and hold the photo against your wrist. Then just imagine how good the real thing will look there. You can do that with the entire family!  Grab a photo of Aunt Fannie, put a photo next to her wrist on her photo and imagine it actually on her. You can’t do that with a game.  For the same thousand plus dollars you spend on one electronic game, you can pick out two watches for all the folks on your gift list, and all you have to do is grab a cup of hot cocoa, sit yourself down at your computer, and log on to www.KenmarWatches.com and have a ball! Just remember, the budget you save may be your own!

Prepare the Easy Way!

Thursday, November 22nd, 2007

The Watchmeister watches watches!

How do you prepare every year for the holidays? Do you pore over all the sale flyers in the newspapers? Do you peruse every catalog from every business that you get in the mail? Do you watch alternating shop at home programs on your television? Do you go crazy trying to match a gift with everyone on your list? There are more ways to look for gifts every year than there are lights on the capital Christmas tree.  And just imagine, you are the one that has to choose every year which way to pick out gifts. You can also go to the malls near you, spend an hour of time and three gallons of gast at over three dollars a gallon looking for a parking place which you may or may not find.  You may end up dropping off the family, go to a lot two blocks away that you can see has an open space. Then you tell them to call you on the cell to come and pick them up. So they go inside the mall, where there are probably several thousand people doing the same thing your family is, shopping for gifts that you still haven’t been able to match to the people on your list. So the family is going to wander the mall hoping for an idea of what to get. And if they do find something then they get to stand another half to an hour to pay and leave. Then they keep wandering around the mall hoping for another idea. Meanwhile, you have been sitting in the car  two blocks away and it starts snowing. So on goes the car, the defroster and the wipers, you watch your gas guage dropping every minute while you sit. Finally, the cell phone rings, you go to pick up the family. That takes a half an hour to get past all the traffic going and coming from the mall, and then when you get to the mall, you still have to drive through the parking lot to get to the entrance you are supposed to meet them at. The snow is getting worse, the parking lot is all slush, and so are the streets around the mall.  About five or six hours after you left the house, you are finally pulling into your garage. Does that sound like your family every year? I have the solution that lets you prepare the easy way. This is so simple you will be surprised you didn’t think of it yourself.  Take your gift list, write down the hobbies of each person on your list. One person jogs every day,  another likes to skin dive and occasionally scuba dive. Still another likes to skydive, although that you can’t figure out. Why would anyone want to jump out of a perfectly good airplane? So you finish matching each person to their hobby. That you were able to do at your kitchen table. Now, instead of going out in cold weather when you know it will be snowing soon, and the malls will be zoos, you go to your computer. Turn it and your printer on. Go to www.KenmarWatches.com, and start matching watches to hobbies. The jogger gets a watch that measures heart rate. The skydiver gets a watch with an altimeter and so on down the list. With each gift you pick, you print a picture of that particular watch, put the recipient’s name on the photo.  Then you purchase each gift as you pick and match. Isn’t this easy? No mall, no crowds, no snow, no wasted gas, you can even have a soft drink or cocoa or anything while you shop that you couldn’t do without standing in lines at the mall. There is never a reason that a person can not have more than one watch. A watch is more than just something that tells time. It is also an investment and a piece of jewelry as well.  So when you get to the end of the list, go to checkout and the computer shows you the total, you bought a number of watches so you got a nice break on the shipping. You do a double take at the total cost. It is so low you can’t believe it. You see, Kenmar will not be beaten in price, choice, brands to choose from, and if after you make your purchase, you find a watch at a lower price, you can contact Kenmar and they will match or beat it.  You pay for the watches with your credit card. Now, instead of having to run all over the place shopping, all you have to do is sit back and wait for the postman to bring your gifts to you! Now, you can’t deny, this WAS the easy way, and it doesn’t get any easier. Now here is the best part, every year, new styles of watches come out, there is no reason you can’t do things the easy way next year!  Remember, the place to go is www.KenmarWatches.com!

It’s About Time!

Monday, November 19th, 2007

The Watchmeister watches watches!

Have you looked at your wrist lately? I bet you did within the last thirty minutes or so. Why did you look at your wrist? Most likely to see what time it was. Why would you not remember looking at your wrist to see what time it was? Because you probably have a very blah very boring watch on your wrist. And a blah or boring watch does nothing to hold your attention, or even help you remember that you just looked at it because it stood out in your mind! A watch is not just something to tell time with anymore. Watches have come a long way over the years. Now, you can find watches that will do almost anything. Television watches, cell phone watches, home theater watches, MP3 music playing watches, watches that can tell you the time anywhere in the world! And still other watches that rely on the power of the sun to keep them working while others rely on the movement of your arm to power them. There are radio watches that let you listen to the radio with a very small set of in ear headphones, and the same with the MP3 watches, they also use in ear headphones for you to hear them. There are watches with flashlights on them, or I should say, built into them, talking watches, braille watches, Even a watch that in some areas allow you to access certain parts of the internet, like to tell you the traffic and allow you to avoid a traffic backup from an accident on your normal route. Then you still have the digital, or the analog. I have also seen watches that are digital, they have an LCD display, but at the push of a button, the watch face will show you the time in analog with lcd hands! Now, lets get back to you and why you didn’t remember looking at your wrist to see the time because your watch is so blah and so boring, that if you set it on a table next to your bed for a half hour, it would put you to sleep! Now, with literally thousands of watches to choose from, or maybe lets say hundreds, you don’t want to be looking for a year for a watch. But lets say hundreds of watches for you to pick from, I would say it’s about time that you put a little excitement on your wrist. Liven up your wardrobe a little bit. A watch is no longer just a watch, it actually IS considered a piece of jewelry! And for the past few years, you have been wearing blah jewelry on your wrist instead of the bling that you are entitled to. No one deserves to wear a boring watch. Why should anyone actually want to wear a boring piece of jewelry when they can be wearing something bright and exciting and new! Even though you are buying yourself a gift in the form of a new watch, it is just as exciting as if someone gave it to you. Now, I am going to tell you where to go to get that new watch that it is about time you got, you are going to log onto your computer and go to www.KenmarWatches.com, and you are going to be able to look at over 125 brands of watches. With so many to choose from, you are practically guaranteed to find several you like. And with the low prices at Kenmar, you can just as easily buy all the ones you like as to buy one. With several watches, you can change watches to match your mood or your wardrobe, or both! So make yourself happy with one or even a few watches from Kenmar. Isn’t it about time you spiced up your life?

And just as an aside, I am adding the newest watch to my collection with a new watch from Kenmar. I don’t just talk the talk, I also walk the walk!

For The Special Person

Monday, November 19th, 2007

The Watchmeister watches watches! 

Do you have friends or relatives that like living on the edge? Scuba or skydiving? Boating, flying, doing things that wrong moves can get you injured or worse?  I really don’t like to discuss worse because that is not a good topic. However, would you like to be able to help them in their hobbies? There are ways to help without you having to don a parachute or scuba tanks. That way is with a watch with all kinds of neat features that can help the edge not be so dangerous. Watches with barometers, depth meters, tide positions, meaning high or low. That is all I know about the tide, it is high or low and it comes in, comes in from where, I have no idea. Some have compasses in them, are waterproof down to so many feet or meters, some have altimeters, you name it they have it. The hard part is matching the watch to the hobbies! But, the experts at one of my favorite places would be happy to consult with you on the phone to help you get the best watch for what you are looking for. Where to start is by going to www.KenmarWatches.com. They carry over 125 different brands of watches there are more than enough to choose from. And for the folks that stay way back from the edge, that prefer a nice calm life that doesn’t involve jumping out of a perfectly good airplane. Or carrying a heavy tank of air on your back. Personally, I prefer to breathe without using a mask and fins and a mouthpiece. And why they call them wetsuits I have no idea. What they are is actually sweatsuits, those things out of water and even in the water have you perspiring like crazy. Even an antipirspirant deodorant won’t help. After you get out of the water, you need to take a shower to get rid of the sweat. Luckily, your watch is waterproof so you don’t even need to take it off to shower. My relationship with water consists of showers, baths and swimming pools. And as far as being in a plane, I stay on to get from point a to point b, I don’t intend to jump out of it as long as it is in the air. So with the holidays coming, or for a birthday, or even just for the sake of friendship, a watch from Kenmar can bring out a smile. And the best part, is that you know that every time the person indulges in their hobby, they will be thinking of you when they put the watch on and they will smile. Everyone knows a special person, even if they don’t scuba or skydive. Or live their lives away from the edge, every special person deserves a special gift.

Watches, THE Most Versatile Gift!

Thursday, November 15th, 2007

The Watchmeister watches watches!

Have any of you folks ever realized just how versatile a gift a watch can be? Well, if you have not realized that little fact it is high time you did! Anniversaries, silver or gold, there are silver or gold watches. Business promotions or a new job, databank and alarm watches. Graduations from any type of school, take your pick of watches on that one. And what has a nice advantage is that if the back of the watch is actually metal instead of plastic, it can actually be engraved for the occasion! Birthdays, a 25th birthday is still silver just like an anniversary, a 50th is still gold. I don’t remember what age it is but I think one either anniversary or birthday is tin, that might pose a problem as there are no tin watches out there. So no matter what the occasion, a watch always makes a perfect gift! And the funny thing I have found out about giving watches as gifts, now I am not absolutely sure on this, but somehow, when you give someone a watch as a gift, it is at that very time where the receiver of the watch says that it is funny that they are getting a watch at that point in time. Either they lost theirs, it broke, it needs a new battery, the band wore out. I’m not sure if these folks are telling the truth at that time or they hate the watch and are making up excuses to look happy that they got it. People are strange that way, they always seem to need what you are giving them right on the same day! Strange coincidence wouldn’t you say? Now, where do you go to find these oh so versatile gifts? Funny you should ask me. You go to www.KenmarWatches.com, y0u browse through a collection of over 125 different brands of watches, pick out the perfect gift, pass out because the prices are so low, give the gift after having it engraved if it needs it, and watch the smiles start. It always warms the cockles of my heart to see someone smile. Now I only need to find out exactly what the cockles are and where on my heart are they located.  Then I will have learned something.  There is also that ancient joke about why did the baseball player throw his watch to the catcher instead of the ball?  He wanted to see time fly. I am sorry, I know that joke is older than dirt but it is still funny sometimes. So folks, when you are looking for the perfect gift for any occasion, even obscure holidays, like you can give a friend an Arbor Day watch. Remember the watch, or timepiece or whatever you want to call it. And even better, to actually look at over 125 brands of watches in hundreds of styles, you go to www.KenmarWatches.com. They watch out for you!

Variety Is The Spice of Life!

Wednesday, November 14th, 2007

How many of you folks have heard this expression and wondered, what the heck does that phrase mean? How can variety be the spice of life? And variety of what? There are tons of things we use every day to survive on, what of those items are we supposed to believe are the spice of life? This is actually a loaded question. It can not actually be defined as it is written, the sentence has to be broken down and changed around to be answered. A normal life can be boring. Take a normal weekday. You wake up, shower, dress, have breakfast, coffee, walk out the door, go to work, do the same kind of work you did yesterday, and the day before and the day before that ad nauseum. Then you go home, have dinner, maybe watch television, read a book, watch a movie, listen to music, then you go to bed, just to wake up in the morning and go through the same routine. Although you did attempt some variety after dinner, music, books, movies, or TV, it isn’t much but it is a start. Now, a spice is there to add flavor, sweet, hot, spicy, tangy, you name it, different spices do it. You know what sugar does, it makes things sweet. Cayenne pepper makes things spicy hot. Cumin burns the roof of your mouth, all your sinuses and anything else it touches, you get the idea. So to spice up the cooking takes a variety of spices. Now to spice up life is something else entirely. That requires variety of a different sort. I hate to say this but usually it is darn near impossible to spice up a job. Managers and owners don’t tend to like things done differently no matter how bored the employee doing it is. So there, all you can really do is change the order that you do your work in every day. Give yourself a change of pace. Outside of work and in the home is where variety can spice up your life! Most folks lives are so boring and blah that they practically put themselves to sleep just living their lives! They have zero excitement, they do the same things at night and on weekends day in and day out. And the funny part of it is, they don’t even know that they are boring themselves to death because they don’t know any other way to do things! Someone has to drag these people out of their self created rut. How do you accomplish that, it is actually easier than you think. There is one way to get rid of the blahs, and that is with bling! Bling can whip the blahs with one rhinestone tied behind it’s back! What is the easiest way to find bling? And even more important, how do you get the bling to the blah folks in a way that they will accept it? I can tell you how to do that easily. Go on to your computer, go to www.KenmarWatches.com, and go hunting. They carry over 125 brands of watches, some with enough bling to light up a street! So you cruise through the brands. Bling is what you are looking for. AHA! For her, Guess, great styles, great bling, great name, great price! For him, a Casio camo G shock, cool colors, great features, awesome style, great price. The G shock you found is even cooler, it is a solar watch. Now you knew that these friends may be boring, but they both belong to green clubs to save the planet. There is nothing better than giving a tree hugger a sun powered watch. They will love you forever! Now, this was a start. You actually got them to realize that there was more to life than what they were doing every day. Then comes the shocking question from of all people, her! “Where can we both get more watches like these, it is about time that we had a little variety, even if it is in watches, to spice up our lives?” So you escort them to your computer and log back on to www.KenmarWatches.com, and you turn them loose. They surf every brand and page on the site, checking the ones they like. They end the search and bring up the watches that they had each selected. Looking them over with the idea of eliminating a few so as not to break the bank, they both realize that the prices are low enough that they don’t have to eliminate any, they can purchase ALL the ones they picked out! Right there they hugged each other, it was a true Kodak moment, almost enough to bring a tear to the eye until you realize that they are hugging because they are finally going to go bling instead of blah with a bunch of new watches for both of them. So the credit card comes out, the shipping charges are adjusted for bulk shipping for multiple watches. They print up their receipt.  Both of them look at you smiling, she hugs you, he shakes hands with you and pats you on the back. They then say “see you later,” walk out the door and head home. You just smile, sit back down at the computer and go back to the Kenmar site. There are a few gifts you need to get and as long as you are already on the site, you decide to go for it.  So, to make variety the spice of your life, do as this happy couple did, get yourself a nice variety of watches to spice up your life via your wrist. There may not be a lot of ways to bring variety into your daily lives, BUT in the morning, when you are getting dressed, you get to spice up your day by picking out your watch for the day. And you know where you got all those spicy watches, Kenmar Watches, located at www.KenmarWatches.com, home to over 125 brands of watches. Go there right now and spice up your life with a variety of watches. There is ALWAYS time to shop at Kenmar, 24/7!

What Is New In The World of Watches?

Wednesday, November 14th, 2007

The Watchmeister watches watches!

What is new in the world of watches? A very valid question. What is new is technology entering into the watch industry with astonishing rapidity. Do you realize that if your grandparents, or great grandparents saw a modern LCD watch it would probably scare them? Well, maybe not scare them so much as amaze them. They would be looking all over the watch for a crown to wind it with. All they would find instead of a crown are the buttons to set the watch. They would be looking at you like, “what the heck is this?” And you would look back at them and tell them that it is a modern LCD watch. Then they would ask, “what does LCD mean?” And you tell them that it means liquid crystal. Then for the rest of the day you are playing 20 questions trying to explain modern technology to someone who odds are never even saw a television set, let alone the plasma and LCD High Definition televisions we have now. Many times people utter the phrase, “isn’t technology wonderful?” This is generally heard in the midst of a hard drive crash on a computer. Then one of my personal favorite lines comes to mind, “to err is human, to really foul things up takes a computer!” And when you look at what your printer suddenly starts spewing  out, all you see is gibberish. Someone screwed up a line of code or two in a program, so another phrase comes to mind, “garbage in, garbage out!” At any rate, yes, in many areas technology is wonderful. This includes the area of watches. There is now, a watch available, that is also a cell phone! There are television watches, and watches that will actually record a full length movie and still tell you the time as well! Yes, grand, and great grandparents would be so awed by what they would see in todays modern world that would not believe their own eyes. Watches that can play music, have alarms in them, light up, store phone numbers and appointments in them, “talk” the time, stay accurate to a nanosecond in a thousand years by picking up the time by radio all the way from Colorado. Then there are watches that change colors, have crystals that can never scratch, and some that can change colors around the outer rim of the watch. There are watches to tell the tide, the moon phase, time in any part of the world, and brands! Back then, there may have been at best a couple dozen watch companies and everyone had one of those brands, now there are hundreds of brands, all offering technology undreamed of back in those days. Yup, we have come a long way in time. Or should I say in timepieces, the old name for a watch. Now, where can you actually find the largest place to see what is new in the world of watches? A no brainer kiddies, as all of you know, with 125 different brands of watches, the place to find what is new, what is classic, and what ever is in between, the place is www.KenmarWatches.com. From atomic time, to solar, to kinetic, to standard, all can be found at Kenmar. Brands with funny names that make strange looking watches, but that is the world of the high tech watch. So all you folks out there with not much else to do but surf the net, stay here a while, read some of my other bits of wit and wisdom, and after you have finished reading, you can get down to why you really came to this site right now. You didn’t come just to read the words of the Watchmeister, you came to buy a watch or two or three. BUT, as long as you are here, and you are in a spending/buying mood, remember how close the holidays are and how much you hate the shopping center and mall crowds, and the driving around all over the parking lot looking in vain for an open spot. Well, you are here now, at a perfect site to buy all the gifts you need without doing what you hate to do on Black Friday, SHOP!!! So shop now, right here and right now at the Kenmar site. You know you want to, you definitely do not want to go to the mall and have everyone ask if you bought your fruitcake yet. AARGH! No no, a thousand times no! I don’t even want to look at those things. So you start to shop, you make out your list, you check it twice (sound familiar) you purchase just what you think each person on your list will absolutely adore. You get to the checkout page, a tad nervous, worried about needing a second mortgage on the house just to pay for the watches you are buying. Reluctantly, you look at the total, eyes getting wider by the moment, so low, how can that be? Easy, Kenmar is far from expensive. We do not have the overhead that a store does, so we can pass on the lower costs to you. Now you take out your credit card and all of a sudden a great big smile breaks out on your face! Your head tilts back on your chair and you roar with laughter, but you are home alone so nobody runs over to find out what you are so happy about. You just realized that with all the money you saved buying your gifts well before Black Friday, and with all the money you saved by not having to spend an hour driving around the parking lots with your car sucking up expensive gasoline with every aisle. You will have enough extra cash to rent at least a dozen great movies to watch at home on Black Friday. And best of all, you absolutely will not have to watch the two millionth broadcast of It’s A Wonderful Life!  Ah, life can be so good, thank Kenmar for that.

A Timely Question!

The Watchmeister watches watches!

Have you ever wondered why a friend or family member picks out exactly the same type of watch every time they buy a new one? You go with them shopping one day and they tell you that they need new watch. So you go to the ineivitable mall, and to a store that sells watches, they walk around the watch section of the store, they glance at their wrist to remind themselves of what they have, they look in the glass case, and point to the exact same watch in the case that they are wearing and tell the salesperson that they would take that one. YUCK and DOUBLE YUCK! Boring boring boring! I don’t know about any of you folks out there, but personally, the Watchmeister doesn’t just watch watches as a hobby, he purchases all types of watches as a hobby. So when I say, I watch watches, that is exactly what I mean, I watch watches! I can literally wear a different watch every day for the next two years if I want to. I do not think I could stand to wear the same boring style of watch on my wrist day after day. I mean a watch is not just there to tell time and date with. A watch is actually a form of jewelry! Ha! I bet many of you didn’t know that little fact! YES, a watch is jewelry, and just like every other type of jewelry, a watch can be bling or blah, great or gunky, timeless, or trashy, pick any phrase you like, they all apply. You need to break that friend out of the rut they are in. It is now your responsibility to get that friend or relative out of the watch buying blah rut they are in. You need to put a little bling into their lives. How do you do this? That is easy. BUT, there are a few things you need to find out before dragging them into blingness! What type of watch do you want to get them that will bring bling and still fit their personality. Then it hits you, SMACK! You realize that every time the two of you were to get together, they were always late, with the SAME EXCUSE, they lost track of time! AHA! Now you know what they need, a multi alarm watch to keep them on time all the time. So, with this in mind, you go home, switch on your computer and enter the web! You go to www.KenmarWatches.com. You go to look for a type of watch, type in multi alarm. There they are, an assortment of alarm watches to choose from. At all sorts of prices and in all sorts of styles. This is what you need to take away the watch wearing blahs and switch them to the watch wearing bling! You look at the assortment, and you find just what you want that will match your friends personality to a T! It is not over or under bling, but just right. You look at the price, wow, not expensive at all. Next thing you know, you have ordered it and all you have to do is wait for delivery. The big day comes, a package from Kenmar is delivered to you. You phone your friend, you want to come over, they say, come on by. You leave the house with a big grin on your face, are they going to be surprised! You arrive, ring the bell, enter, and without a single word, you hand them the box. They ask what it is and you just say to open it. They do, suddenly they smile at you and look up into your face. “WOW, this is fantastic!” They take it out, take off the blah and put on the bling. They can’t stop staring at it. You say, “this watch has five alarms in it, you can make sure that from now on you are never late for anything just because you lost track of time because this watch will track the time for you and go off to remind you that you have things to do.” Now both of you are happy, them, with a new watch to keep them on time and on track, you, because you did a great deed, you took the blah’s out of your friends life AND at the same time, not even realizing it, you made an investment for them. Who knows, but sometime down the road, that watch could become a collectors item, you never know. So now you know why the Watchmeister watches watches! And even more important, you know where to go to take away the watch blahs and not break the bank doing it. In a timely manner, you proceed to www.KenmarWatches.com, and pick through 125 different brands of watches till you find the right one for you. And that my friends, answers the question!

Pre holiday jitters are showing their faces.

The family is worried about good shopping places.

As the Man of the house you have something to prove.

That age has no bearing on losing your groove.

On the web is a site to which you must go.

To buy early gifts to keep the family status quo.

To www.KenmarWatches you went.

Knowing your wallet would not take a dent!

Early gifts chose you for all of your kin.

Knowing this was a fight you could surely win!

The gift photo’s printed to give one and all.

“Here” you told them, “I bought these with NO mall”!

So all in the house again became calm.

The watches you had purchased proved a great balm.

So now you have proved you are the man of the house!

Lord of the Manor and not close to a louse!

You knew just what to do to keep the house calm.

All that it took was a visit to www.KenmarWatches.com.

Choose Wisely Choose Well

The Watchmeister watches watches.The Watchmeister learned a new word today, the word is horology. This word means the study of watches, or time, take your pick as time can’t be told with any great accuracy without a watch. So the Watchmeister is actually a horologist, because when I do watch a watch, and I tell you about it, that means that I have studied the watch itself and actually learned what makes it tick, so to speak. I have said many times in my blogs, that a watch is not just a device you buy to tell time with. But, depending on what watch you do buy, it can and often is, an investment. When you go on line, say you visit my personal favorite site, www.KenmarWatches.com, and you look at the selection of over a hundred brands of watches, you are actually looking for that one or those several watches that catch your eye at the time. Those watches that you actually visualize in your minds eye residing on your wrist, or a friends wrist, or a significant others wrist. No matter whose wrist you see it on in your mind, to you, at that time, that watch looks like it belongs there. So you purchase the one or more that you liked from Kenmar, you ordered several so you get a better deal on the shipping charge. Now here is the odd thought. How do you know if the watch or watches you picked out and purchased will still be on sale next year? Or the year after that? How do you know if the brand of watch you bought will still be around next year? The answer is, you don’t! BUT, and this is very important, if the watches that you bought were produced in limited quantity by the manufacturer for one reason or another, those watches, or any one of them, could become a collectors item. Now since I discovered today that not only am I the Watchmeister, I am also a horologist, which means I do study watches. Watches, or timepieces in general have come a long way since I was small. No one had ever envisioned a watch that received the correct time by radio. Or a watch that could store over a hundred pages of names and phone numbers. They are here now. Those features and many others can be found in the watches of today. BUT, do NOT let your ego decide what you want in a watch. Let either your budget or your job or your requirements decide. More expensive does not always mean better. If you associate with extremely well off people, and your watch requires that you keep up with them, by all means, do so! Go to www.KenmarWatches.Com and let the cost list decide for you. On that site, there are several ways to find what you want in a watch, or more importantly what you need. Look at the photo’s on the site, and there are many. Decide which one just looks right to be on your wrist. Imagine it on your wrist, it’s color, it’s features, it’s appearance, you see it on your wrist, or anyone you are looking for a watch for’s wrist. Imagine the smiles on their faces when they put on what you alone picked out for them, share in their happiness, after all, you were the one that caused it. But above all else, always choose wisely, don’t look for a Rolls Royce when all you can afford is a Volkswagon. As I said earlier here, more expensive does not always guarantee better. It sometimes just means more expensive. BUT, if the more expensive has the features you absolutely must have, then by all means, grab it. Buy what you NEED not always what you WANT!Heed the Watchmeister, your friendly neighborhood horologist, he watches watches!
