Sekonda Watches Party on TV’s Popstar to Operastar

Leave a comment

05 July 2011 – /RTPR/– The party is nearly over for ‘Popstar to Operastar’ contestants Joe McElderry and Cheryl Baker but it never stops for Sekonda watches.

Over the past five weeks, Sekonda has showcased its colourful range of Party Time watches in its role as official show sponsor of ITV1’s singing competition.

In that time, the eight celebrity contestants have been whittled down to finalists McElderry and Baker, who will compete against each other to be crowned the winning ‘Operastar’ on Sunday’s final show.

Although the final curtain will come down on ‘Popstar to Operstar’ for another year, fans of Partytime won’t have to wait that long to see their favourite Sekonda watches return to the screen.

The new series of ‘Britain & Ireland’s Next Top Model’, which commenced on Sky Living on Monday (04 July), will feature the modelling hopefuls sporting Sekonda Partytime watches as part of one week’s challenge.

Sekonda watches’ starring role in Living’s fashion show follows last year’s photo shoot, which saw contestants wearing Casio Baby-G watches and led to show winner Joy McLaren being selected as an official brand ambassador.

Although it is not yet known whether this year’s winner will enjoy a similar deal modelling Sekonda Partytime watches, the brand itself is sure to benefit from another turn in the TV spotlight.

Each Partytime watch boasts a bold, single colour strap with a glittering stone-set bezel, providing a colour for every party any time of the year.

With Christmas approaching, it’s likely that Sekonda will continue its sponsorship of ITV shows over the festive period following annual slots in 2009 and 2010, which won the watch brand even more fans in the run-up to Christmas.

A wide range of Sekonda watches, including the Partytime range, can be viewed at the Watch Hut, the UK’s largest watches website.

Catch the finale of ‘Popstar to Operstar’, sponsored by Sekonda, on Sunday 10 July at 8pm ITV1. For more information on where you can next catch Sekonda on TV, visit thewatchhut.co.uk.

Citizen Watches Ambassador Kim Clijsters Misses Wimbledon

Leave a comment

Jun 22 2011 /RTPR/ – Citizen watches ambassador Kim Clijsters has confirmed that she will miss this year’s Wimbledon tournament.

The injury is the second suffered this year by Clijsters, after the first prevented her from playing in this year’s French Open. Clijsters sustained the new injury during her match against Romina Oprandi at the UNICEF Open in the Netherlands.

During the match, she skidded on the grass court and fell, twisting her right ankle which resulted in severe bruising and a tendon injury. The new injury is unrelated to her previous ankle problem and it is thought it could not have been prevented by the application of ankle tape.

The Citizen watches ambassador has been ordered to rest and will resume training in a month’s time to enable her to take part in this summer’s major US events such as the US Open, which takes place in late August. The event features Clijsters’ major sponsor Citizen watches as the official timekeeper.

Earlier this season, the player had to take time off to recover from shoulder and wrist injuries sustained as a result of the WTA tournament in Miami at the end of March. In early April, she injured her ankle whilst attending the wedding party of a cousin. She returned to the courts at the French Open but her lack of competitive play and training activity showed and she was ousted in the second round by the Dutch player Arantxa Rux, currently ranked 114th in the professional standings, 112 places below Clijsters.

Clijster has so far reached four Grand Slam finals and has won 34 singles titles in her career. She has also won 9 doubles titles with her partner, Japanese player Ai Sugiyama. She retired from the sport in 2007, playing her last tournament in Warsaw. Kim returned to the game in March 2009 initially aiming to participate in exhibition tournaments but returned to competitive tennis in August 2009. A few weeks later she returned to the US Open, the tournament she won in 2005.

Cameron Diaz to be the new face of TAG Heuer Watches

Leave a comment

Jun 22 2011 /RTPR/– Hollywood starlet Cameron Diaz is set to become the latest high profile celebrity to endorse TAG Heuer watches.

Although an official announcement is yet to be made, reputable sources report that Diaz is set to join Leonardo DiCaprio as an ambassador for the popular, prestigious watch brand.

TAG Heuer watches, which are particularly popular in Diaz’s native US, have long been associated with some of Hollywood’s biggest stars; prior to DiCaprio’s current role as ambassador, Brad Pitt and Uma Thurman both featured in TAG Heuer campaigns.

With sources pointing to Diaz being next in line to the TAG Heuer ambassador throne, the company’s reputation for attracting the Hollywood elite is as strong as ever.

Diaz can currently be seen in cinemas in hit comedy ‘Bad Teacher’, where she stars alongside ex Justin Timberlake, and was last year ranked by Forbes Magazine as the third highest-paid actress in Hollywood.

The actress’s box office appeal has spanned over a decade of cinema, from her breakout turn in ‘There’s Something About Mary’ to dramatic roles (‘In Her Shoes’, ‘My Sister’s Keeper’), indie endeavours (‘Being John Malkovich’, ‘A Life Less Ordinary’) and successful franchises (‘Shrek’, ‘Charlie’s Angels’).

Her new role as TAG Heuer ambassador will cast Diaz in a promotional role for the Swiss watch brand. Upon an official announcement, promotional shots featuring Diaz wearing a timepiece will be expected shortly afterwards.

TAG Heuer watches have provided watch fans and collectors with the best in Swiss ‘avant-garde’ since 1860. Many of the brand’s watches have gone on to become iconic examples of watch-making craftsmanship, including the Carrera line and the infamous Monaco. TAG’s long-established relationship with the field of motorsports means Diaz will feel right at home, following her stint behind the wheel of an Indy Race Car in the first ‘Charlie’s Angels’ movie.

Buying an Exclusive Watch Brand – MC Marc Watches

Leave a comment

Marc Watches Ltd purveys expertly crafted yet truly affordable men’s and ladies watches.

Birmingham, UK, February 25, 2011 — When it comes to buying a watch, particularly as a gift, it’s always nice to be able to get something that not everyone else can get hold of. Mark Luton the owner of Marc watches Ltd says “Our Marc Watches website for example is a perfect model of an exclusive online watch store that only stocks our own exclusive MC Marc brand of watches, you can only buy them online you cannot purchase MC Marc watches in stores.”

Mark goes on to say “Pretty much all of the other popular watch brands on the market today can be bought in any jewellery store, and even in large retail High Street stores. This doesn’t mean that these watches are poor in quality, on the contrary, you can get some very nice watches in all jewellers and watch stores on the high street and on the internet; however you will have to search very hard for a truly exclusive brand.

If you have a partner or friend that likes to have things that other people don’t (and let’s face it, we all like a bit of this don’t we?) then buying them an exclusive brand is certainly the way forward. Brands like ours are designed by our elves, quality controlled by ourselves and sold by ourselves, thus ensuring the quality and originality of each and every watch that we sell, minimising the risk of any faults in the watches or mistakes in the ordering process.

When you present your partner or friend (or whoever) with an exclusively made watch they will no doubt be very impressed, and not least because of its exclusive origin, they will more than likely be impressed by the clearly expert manufacture of it too. An exclusive watch is a conversation piece as well as a beautiful piece of jewellery so if you’re considering buying a watch for a loved one then you should really consider approaching an exclusive designer and manufacturer of watches to get that little bit more of a personal touch and a mark of quality rarely seen in mass produced jewellery.”
