Check out the vintage Hermes sale at Moda Operandi

Images via Moda Operandi

Some days, talking about trends and design and the fashion industry just seems a little strenuous, particularly first thing in the morning. Today was starting to feel like one of those days, which calls for some totally gratuitous eye candy. Luckily, online trunk sale pioneer Moda Operandi is currently offering a generous selection of gorgeous vintage Hermes bags, and even though the sale is only open to Moda members, we have all the pictures.

The Hermes pieces range in price from $4,950 for a slightly worn leather Kelly bag to $79,factory direct purses,900 for a rare, pristine Himalayan crocodile Birkin, which has evidently already been snapped up by an enthusiastic collector. The selection of croc, alligator and ostrich is truly impressive and ranges from the expected neutrals to brights like lovely vert anis green, and there are also a few nontraditional bags with a mixture of leather and printed canvas. Take a look for yourself after the jump, or if you’ve got deep pockets, shop the sale via Moda Operandi through tomorrow.

Casio Introduces a New Vibrating G-Shock_376

Casio Introduces a New Vibrating G-Shock ,daytona replica

Casio G-Shock GL-7500HD

I love the idea of vibrating alarms. I think a vibrating alarm
on a
watch makes as much sense as a vibrating ringer on a mobile phone.
Unfortunately, if you want a silent watch, you don't
have a lot of choices. Some options that come to mind are the Tissot
High-T, the Tissot
Silen-T, the Casio
G-Shock GW-400J, and now the newest addition: the Casio
G-Shock GL-7500HD.

The Casio GL-7500HD is a watch intended for water sports,watches replica, the
idea being if your swimming, surfing,watch replica, water skiing, etc., you're not
likely to hear an alarm. Additional water-related features include a
tide graph and water resistance to 200 meters (about 650 feet).
Here's the full feature list for the Casio GL-7500HD:

Vibrating
alarm. Tide graph. World time
(preprogrammed for 28 cities). Three daily alarms
and one snooze alarm. Countdown timer. Stopwatch
with a resolution of 1/100 of a second. Automatic
calendar. Water-resistant to 200
meters, or about
650 feet.

As far as my own personal
G-Shock collection goes,replica watches, I usually don't bother with anything that
isn't atomic and solar anymore simply because I think those are two
very useful features that Casio has really implemented well (see the Casio
G-Shock GW-400J). But if your criteria is less stringent, and
your priorities are a tough, inexpensive watch with a vibrating alarm,
The Casio G-Shock GL-7500HD looks like a very good fit. And it is
readily available in the US for only around $80.

For 2011 Rolex offers a new Explorer 2 to follow up last year's new Explorer. While the Explorer was bumped up to 39mm last year, the Explorer 2 is the Rolex sport watch with a modern size of 42mm in width. That is 2mm larger than the Submariner, and it likely wears better than the 43mm wide Submariner Deep Sea. Also new is the return of the orange GMT hand in addition to the Maxi-dial like size of the hands and hour indicators.

In a 42mm wide case, the Explorer 2 is in 904L steel with a mix of polished and brushed surfaces. While known for its white dial, the Explorer 2 now comes with a black dialed version as is traditional for the line - both in lacquer. Contrast on the dial on both models remains excellent, with the signature large orange GMT hand remaining on the dial. Both dials feature "Chromalight" luminant. The hands are all in white gold. I have had arguments with people about Rolex hands being in white gold. While not all of them are, many of the newer Rolex models have white gold hands. Says it right here in the Rolex material!

The case looks great with its steel on steel fixed 24 hour bezel. It is water resistant to 100 meters. Sapphire crystal is double AR coated and has a date magnifier lens. Inside the watch is an in-house made Rolex caliber 3187 COSC Chronometer certified automatic. It has the time, date,rolex explorer II replica, and GMT hand - and a 48 hour power reserve. Would have been great to see the watch have the glide-lock clasp of the Submariner, but then the Explorer would encorach on its territory.

It has a steel bracelet with an Oysterlock clasp and Easylink 5mm comfort extension link. Not sure exactly what that is yet, but it sounds like a nice microadjust system. Rolex offers yet another watch we all want. Funny how something like "42mm wide" is enough to get me excited in the Rolex context. This and the new Daytona styles are the big news for Rolex this year - the 36mm wide models are looking smaller and smaller,rolex replica!
