TIMELOUNGE CHARITY ACTION on 18 November 2024 at PARK HYATT!

CHARITY ACTION Issue #3 in favour of Licht ins Dunkel and PINK RIBBON! TIMELOUNGE is once again demonstrating great social compassion this year and is donating a large number of high-quality watches as part of the Schmuckstars-Timelounge Charity, which is being co-organised for the third time. As in the last two years, the entire proceeds from the auction will be donated to LICHT INS DUNKEL and PINK RIBBON!

The return of the 80s

Everything comes back. At some point. Even my grandmother knew that and the more mature you become, the more you realise: damn, it really is like that. When Rolex presented the GMT-Master II as a yellow gold and bicolour version on a Jubilé bracelet last year, I immediately felt something like my own personal Werthers Echte moment. Only not with gold-wrapped caramel sweets, but with the watches I knew from my childhood. And so I still remember, as if it were yesterday, the picture of TV legend Horst Tappert smiling at me from the cover of a TV magazine with a gold GMT on a Jubilee bracelet.

How deep is deep?

When I started wearing watches at a young age, everything was quite simple for me. If the words “Water Resistant” were written on the back cover, you had to be careful. On the other hand, if it said “30M”, everything was fine. Off to the beach with it and have fun. I wore those watches in the sea for years without a care in the world - for swimming, showering and bathing anyway.

An eternal irritation

Who hasn't experienced this? Travelling by plane from Japan to the USA, adjusting your world clock to the local conditions, but then the shock: the date is wrong! The reason: that darned International Date Line. A circumstance that already caused problems for Jules Verne's hero Phileas Fogg on his journey around the world in 80 days.

A special kind of sea dweller

Every Rolex is special and has its own special story. That's clear. At the end of the day, it's something special that every watch manufacturer's advertising tries to entice us with. But: the Rolex Deepsea D-Blue is - truly - something special.

green even greener

You almost get the impression that Rolex did everything wrong when they robbed the Rolex Submariner LV of its green dial. Or were they putting an end to a trend in Geneva that all the well-known watch manufacturers were only gradually jumping on, a good decade after the launch of the "Hulk"?

And they do exist!

If you want to be popular, make yourself rare. This saying, which my parents vehemently inscribed on the flags of one or two of my childhood crushes, probably reached Glashütte in Saxony at some point.
