So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Titanium Watch

By Charles Tripp

Titanium has been used to build aircraft, battleships and it's even in the International Space Station but did you know that it can also be used to make great looking watches? It makes perfect sense to use the world's hardest known element to build precision timepieces. Titanium is strong, lightweight, hypoallergenic and it doesn't tarnish. And that's why fine watchmakers everywhere are getting excited about Titanium watches.

A man named Rev. William Gregor discovered titanium in the late 1700s. It was named after the Titans of Ancient Greek mythology. Titanium was very expensive to extract and wasn't widely used until almost the mid 1900s. That's when a more efficient technique called the Kroll Process was invented to separate it from its various ores. Since then Titanium has been used in many different applications.

Titanium has a high strength to weight ratio and it also has great resistance to corrosion and these characteristics have made it very popular among jewelry designers. It's also become very popular with watch aficionados

Titanium is a radiant silver metal that looks like a lot like white gold, silver or platinum. But a Titanium watch band will feel a lot lighter on your wrist. And with oversized watches becoming so popular lately, you'll appreciate the weight difference.

Since it's so durable, Titanium has become more in demand for designer jewelry. Its inertness also makes it a great option for people with allergies or those who are going to wear it in places like the ocean or a swimming pool. Since titanium is a non-ferromagnetic metal, they say that patients with titanium implants can be safely examined in an MRI machine. Although I really don't recommend wearing a Titanium watch to an MRI.

Mens Titanium watches are an unconventional alternative to the same old silver, gold, or even platinum watches and they also cost less money. If you are looking for an outstanding watch that you can wear when you're getting all dressed up, going diving under the sea or even to work on a home improvement project, Titanium is what you are looking for.
