Top Reasons Why Diamond Wedding Bands Will Never Go Out of Fashion

There’s something about diamonds that truly defines ‘class’ and ‘grace’. No other stone has the ability to garner the worldwide attention that diamonds have perhaps due to their ‘timeless’ appeal. They are considered not just an elegant piece of jewelry to be worn on any occasion but also the most significant ornament of one’s life- i.e., their wedding ring.

Why Are Diamond Wedding Bands So Popular with The Masses?

A diamond is forever’, they say. Perhaps this is why diamond wedding rings are considered as a symbol of a long-lasting and eternal marital union. This is not the only reason why they are grossly popular. Here are some other reasons why diamond wedding rings are a must-buy and possibly the best choice for wedding rings –

‘Diamonds are a girl’s best friend’: This might seem a little cliché and possibly an over-used and exaggerated phrase, but it is true. Diamonds are immensely popular with women. They possess the charm that can make any woman go head – over – heels.

Diamond wedding rings look stylish on both men and women: Matching diamond wedding rings/bands are something most couples opt for. While diamonds look absolutely dazzling on women, they look wonderful on men too. The glitz and glamor that diamonds provide rub off on both the genders.

Diamond rings come in unique designs: This might seem a little baffling, but it is not. Contrary to layman belief, not all the diamonds are same. There is a lot of variety that can be found amongst diamond wedding rings if one looks at it carefully.

Custom made wedding rings may seem very expensive, but they need not necessarily be: Diamonds are an expensive jewelry stone. Thus, many times, people opting for diamond wedding rings want them to be custom made so that their special piece of jewelry caters to their taste. This does not have to be an expensive affair as there are much affordable and reasonably – priced outlets who will readily customize your ring so that it speaks to you.

Diamond Wedding Ring Designs That Will Remain an All-Time Favorite

Shopping for wedding bands is a fundamental and probably the most awaited part of the wedding shopping. Unlike the shopping of an engagement ring, which is mostly shopped for one person and usually kept as a secret from the significant other, until the proposal, wedding bands are more often than not, bought together. One of the major reasons for this can be that engagement rings are to this day, mostly worn just by the woman. Wedding rings, however, are worn by both. They are a significant ornament that symbolizes true love and everlasting commitment and, so it is only wise to buy them together.

Some of The Most Sought-After Wedding Ring Designs That You Can Look For:

Classic channel-set diamond wedding band in 10k / 14k white gold/sterling silver/platinum is a good choice as white gold is simply a classier version of gold and looks simple and beautiful. While sterling silver and platinum both always look shiny and pristine.
Rose-gold adds a tinge of magic and enchantment to wedding rings. And more so when they come in designs like infinity rings. Although the infinity wedding band design comes in other elements too; rose-gold rings only augment the uniqueness and beauty of wedding bands.
Curved diamond rings are a new and contemporary wedding band design.
Garland designed rings and halo rings are rising in popularity as they are mostly combined with other precious stones like sapphire, emerald, black diamond etc.

With so many distinctive and inimitable ring designs to choose from, pick the ones that appeal the most to you and your better half.

Top 5 Latest Watches for Bridegrooms in Fall 2017

Let’s be realistic for a moment: wedding season is never really finished. Of course, it peaks in the spring and summer, but the wedding day can come at any time. And although we all know that it is the bride’s show, there is no reason the groom can’t give his wrist a little attention on the big day.

So whether you are a bride hoping that you will get something special for the groom, the best man who wants to have your buddy’s back, or the groom himself looking for that romantic watch for your wedding day, we have covered for you. From vintage watches to modern high-end watches timepieces, read on for the top 5 latest watches for bridegrooms in fall 2017:

Rolex Datejust

Datejust is no doubt the perfect groom’s watch. It is timeless and versatile, well dressed to work under a suit cuff and casual enough to fit in low key settings. An excellent all-purpose timepiece, the Datejust will wear well beyond the wedding day. And it is one of the best options for the price-conscious watch buyer. As a starter “nice” watch, only a few other timepieces can be compared.

Jaeger-Lecoultre Reverso

The Reverso’s discreet Art Deco design is classical. Rectangular in shape, thinner than the most oversized contemporary watches, the Reverso is a great choice for a groom’s watches that will get many props. And if you want to adjust your watch in any way, the Reverso can be the best watch for the job. The reversible dial case back is practically made for that purpose (if it doesn’t have another dial).

Cartier’s tank

The Cartier’s tank is classical. This is one of the oldest watch designs still produced today, which means there are different sizes, shapes, materials to choose from when it comes to watches for the bridegroom. Whether you are a watch enthusiast or not, it’s a timepiece that commands respect across the board. With its golden case, minimalist white dial, and leather tape, the Calatrava is a timeless watch that is not only perfect for the big day, but it will last for generations.

Vintage OMEGA Seamaster

Unlike the sportier models you will find from OMEGA today, a vintage Seamaster makes an unexpected but fantastic bridegroom’s watch. Why? Simple, it’s a watch that goes well with a suit, a dress shirt or just a casual suit.

Former Seamaster models are and minimally styled, making them a smart groom’s watch option. As the old Seamaster’s models develop a beautiful patina over time, they are the perfect choice for a bridegroom with an appreciation for objects with a little history.

Patek Philippe Calatrava

Or you can always choose one of the most iconic watches of all time. The Calatrava has a history of 80 years and an incredible status among watch lovers. It’s an excellent bridal watch for the groom that loves to have the best of everything.

Recently, it has become a trend to get the bridegroom a watch for his wedding day. We agree – a classic watch is an excellent gift and will serve as a reminder of an important event. And no matter what watch ends up on the groom’s wrist for the big day, it will surely be a sentimental accessory for a long time. So whether you are gifting or buying for yourself, be sure to choose something that you like. This will make the wedding day even more special.

Solidity – If a piece of gold jewelry that you see at jewelry sale is marked as 10K or higher, it means it is solid gold. Sometimes, however, you find pieces that are marked as either gold-filled or gold-plated. This means that the piece has only one layer of gold coating, a less precious metal. Gold-filled jewelry pieces have thicker gold layers than gold plated ones. However, they are still cheaper, less durable and less valuable than solid Adidas gold.

Authenticity – According to the law in many countries, no jeweler is allowed to trade if they sell their jewelry without karat stamp.

Between watchmaking tradition and technological innovation

Between watchmaking tradition and technological innovation

In order to celebrate the first year of the collection Tourbillon Oculus 1297, Ateliers deMonaco unveils two new models with a black titanium case bringing a sportier touch to the collection.

Launched in 2016 and recognisable by its dial composed of small lozenges in relief, this collection is inspired by Monaco’s coat of arms.

Between watchmaking tradition and technological innovation
Emanating from the Tourbillon Oculus 1297 collection, these two new timepieces are equipped with the manufacture dMc-980 calibre. Designed, developed, built and assembled in the Ateliers deMonaco manufacture, this patented tourbillon movement is called: Tourbillon XP1. It is one of the most precise in the world with a tolerance between 0 to 2 seconds per 24 hours.

These two automatic models have the Ateliers deMonaco signature rotor. The latest represents the Principality’s crown which is carefully hand-engraved in 22K gold.

For the first time, the manufacturer envelops its movement with an ultra-light black DLC titanium case.

The dial is made with the use of a new technology: a five axis laser. This latest innovation does not burn the material but enhances it giving the sought-after form. In this case, it is the signature symbol of Ateliers deMonaco: the lozenge. The mention Ateliers deMonaco is also written on the rim of the dial.

The two new models are recognizable by a small dial at 12 o’clock or in rose gold colour or in white gold colour. In order to be faithful to the Oculus model, an opening on the tourbillon’s cage at 6 o’clock allows us to see the heartbeat of the watch.

Lastly, to glorify the whole, the watch is mounted on a black alligator leather strap adorned with a hand-stitched and folding buckle in titanium black DLC for a more convenient use.

A Monegasque inspiration
In 1297, François Grimaldi, took the fortress of Monaco thanks to a stratagem: dressed like a Franciscan monk, he entered in the stronghold with one of his fellow soldiers. Once inside, he was able to open the door to his little army and seized the fortress.

Coat of Arms of the Grimaldi House pays tribute to this history because they are composed of:

“Comprises a silver shield decorated with red diamonds surrounded by the Order of St. Charles collar. It is placed on a red coat lined with ermine, topped by the royal crown.

Standing at each side of the shield are two monks brandishing raised swords. Below them is a banderol with the royal motto Deo Juvante (with God’s Help).”[1]
