Wholesale Weekend: Ebel Brasilia

Woah, what is this--a rare Sunday post? What could be happening at The Watchery? Relax, folks. There is no emergency at Watchery HQ. We simply had to take a break from this wonderful weekend to tell you about our Wholesale Weekend savings event! Until nine o'clock EST tomorrow morning, you can shop our selection of almost 2,000 luxury watches. But what makes this sale special are the wholesale prices. Between Piaget, IWC, and Ebel watches, we carry watches with unbelievably low prices: think up to 95% off the list price!

Speaking of Ebel, we could not live with ourselves if we forwent mentioning this gem of a watch, the Brasilia timepiece. Oh, and did we say gem? If white diamonds are your gemstone of choice, the Brasilia has you covered--in 106 of them! Yes, friends, bookending the stainless steel dial are two tasteful columns of diamonds. Still, it is the inside which matters, right? The silver tone hands and luminous Roman numerals make the Brasilia particularly fetching for any discerning timepiece connoisseur.

Typically, this watch retails for nearly $13,000 but until tomorrow morning, you can snatch up the Ebel Brasilia for just $5.6k, a whole 56% discount!

Late Giving: Philip Stein Signature

Better late than never, right? As of today we are still running our Late Giving promotion, a special savings event for all of you slackers procrastinators really, really thoughtful types out there. We know that some of you are perfectionists when it comes to picking out gifts for friends, so we have done away with the whole scouring process and presented just over 400 luxury watches for you to choose from.

First at bat: the Philip Stein Signature watches for men. Answer honestly now. Have you ever seen a dial this striking? Even the most seasoned timepiece connoisseur would be hard pressed to name a model as bold as this one. Look at the thing! There are five dials--five of them! With two primary watch crowns, you can keep time in your local New York timezone and also stay aware of your Parisian chum's time in +1 GMT. The three subdials can further help elucidate all things clockwise, with default settings for 60 seconds, 60 minutes, and 24 hours.

Really, maybe you should buy one for yourself. With two dials and three subdials constantly fixed to your wrist, you probably will not miss any of your Christmas shopping next year!

Late Giving: Breitling Windrider

The individual who coined, "Good things come to those who wait" probably did not think of belated gift shoppers when he or she turned the phrase, but we do! For a short while, The Watchery will be running Late Giving, a special savings event for those of the highest caliber of procrastinators, the people who forwent Black Friday, the weeks leading up to Christmas, and even Christmas Day itself to do other things but purchase luxury watches for their loved ones. Fear not, friends. You will not see us wagging our fingers and tsk-tsk-tsk'ing you. Instead, allow us to show you to more than 400 watches with discounts up to 89% off.

Check out this one here, the Windrider, one of our most coveted Breitling watches for women. Usually this watch retails for an exorbitant price of $16,425. Absurd, no? But because you waited, you can save 60% on this high end piece and pay only $6.5k with our sale. And speaking of "k," the Windrider boasts an 18k solid rose gold case and bezel. If a watch requires more than solid gold to appeal to your loved one, this also features 40 white diamonds encrusted along the bezel, so one need not look far to deem the Windrider an exceptional designer watch.

Christmas Countdown Concluded: Chanel J12

All this week, we have been covering our Countdown to Christmas extravaganza, the last-chance savings event for last-minute gift seekers. For all of the watches we have highlighted (and many more we have not), tomorrow is the absolute last day to order that pair of Breitling watches you have eyed ever since you came in here. At least, if you want to receive it by Christmas Day. So once again, if you place your order on Saturday the 22nd by 12 p.m. EST, you're golden and can expect your watch on Christmas Eve.

Okay, that said, we have one more watch we would like to bring to your attention for the holidays. This one is from Chanel. You might recall the name from Chanel No. 5, the iconic Parisian fragrance and the world's best-selling perfume. Well, as good old-fashioned talent would have it, the Chanel J12 watches for women are no less indicative of the brand's impeccable style. One cannot help but gawk at the marvelous white dial with 12 diamond indices. The sparkling eye-like center of the watch face strikes us as especially alluring. As for the bracelet, the material is white and austere but built with high-tech ceramic and conforms to this year's recent luxury watch trends. If you truly want to surprise the lady in your life, this lovely timepiece is infallible.

Christmas Countdown Cont'd: Panerai Luminor Marina

Yesterday we unveiled a spinoff promotion of our Countdown to Christmas savings event. With just under 40 individual models left, we are still focusing on the last few Cartier, Blancpain, and Panerai luxury watches in our inventory. Of these brands, we have hardly mentioned the Italian-bred, Swiss-made Panerai timepieces. No, not Panera. Panerai. As in Giovanni Panerai, who founded the brand in Florence, Italy in 1860. Let us tell you, in the 150-plus years since the company's inception, Panerai has had no problem staying relevant in the fashion industry.

As one of the more distinguished watches for men in our holiday sale, the Luminor Marina model stands out as a prime example of Panerai's exquisite style and dedication to precision. Really, just look at the titanium bracelet--stronger than almost any steel, but less dense. Also impressive is the date display in the three o'clock position, ingeniously magnified behind a window in all its analogue glory. And then the watch crown! While it is a standard push-pull affair, the protective bar and lever are additions one rarely sees in the designer watch business. Remember, if you really want to impress that suave gentleman in your life, order the Luminor before this Saturday the 22nd and receive it in time for Christmas Day!

New Special on Cartier, Blancpain, and Panerai

So far this week, we have covered a number of select Tag Heuer watches and Breitling watches available during our Countdown to Christmas promotion, meaning if you order any one of these shipshape pieces before this Saturday, December 22, we guarantee that you will receive in time for Christmas Day. This promise applies to more than just Tag Heuer and Breitling, though. Overnight, we debuted a separate page with the same delivery guarantee for Cartier, Blancpain, and Panerai models.

Of particular interest to men is our very last of this special Fifty Fathoms series from Blancpain. Carrying the heritage of a nearly 300-year-old company, this carbon fiber chronograph combines a bold, modern statement with an indisputable reputation. What is most striking about this watch is probably the jumbo-sized bezel. Like a yellow-striped life preserver, it has a lot to protect. The dial features razor sharp black and red hands and three heavily emphasized subdials. Even the case the watch comes in resembles a heavy duty toolbox with a handle, buckles, and the works.

As far as the holiday season is concerned, the best thing about this timepiece and our others during this sale is same day shipping. Make sure you order before 2 p.m. EST to have your watch shipped before the business day is through!

Get It Before Xmas: Breitling Windrider

This week, we are covering just a few of the designer watches available during our Countdown to Christmas celebration. Order any one of these 500 timepieces before this Saturday the 22nd and we guarantee you will receive it in time for Christmas Day morning. Included in this sale are brands for kids like Activa, Dunlop, and Timex but we also carry watchmakers for more refined tastes, such as-- well, Breitling watches.

Breitling comes up frequently on our blog because in 125 years, the Swiss watchmaker still manages to craft some of the best modern luxury watches without losing a flair for the classic. If you truly forced us, we would probably out the Windrider/Cockpit timepieces as our favorite womens watches.

Do not be discouraged by the unwieldy title and model number. MOP Dial? What is that supposed to mean? Relax, last-minute gift seeker. MOP stands for mother of pearl. Also known as nacre, it is the strong, iridescent material that coats pearls and some mollusk shells. The dial refers to the face of the wristwatch--you know, with all of the hands and numbers. Now that you know the dial build, you might also be interested to know that it is encrusted with 40 white diamonds and solid rose gold. Well, we thought it worth mentioning.

Get It Before Xmas: Tag Heuer Grand Carrera

Christmas Eve is just one week away, and you have the nerve to tell us you have neglected to buy gifts for anyone yet? Great! No really, it truly is, because we can guarantee to deliver you the perfect set of designer watches in time for Christmas Day if you order by December 22, or this Saturday. For the Countdown to Christmas, we have cordoned off more than 500 timepieces from distinguished watchmakers like Panerai, Chopard, and Graham.

If you want to access the upper echelon of luxury watches, you cannot reach much higher than Tag Heuer, and at the summit of the brand is their Grand Carrera watch for men. Designed specifically for those wise guys who scoff at fashionable watches, this model is as tough as it is refined. Sporting a quality rubber bracelet, the Grand Carrera series is built for heavy use. Just show off the dial to your token layman if you want to overwhelm someone with beauty and precision. Between the tachometer, caliper scale reading, and the certified chronometer, this watch provides more details at a glance than any single smartphone app could ever dream of matching. Order today to save 30% and wear the watch before the week is over!
