The Rolex Submariner might be the most famous watch in the world. Known officially as the “Rolex Oyster Perpetual Submariner,” it debuted in 1953 and has been continuously improved ever since. In the 1950s, you could get one for $150, but the watch now retails for around $8,500.

Prior to switching to Omega, James Bond wore the Rolex Sub. The timepiece has adorned the wrists of countless adventurers, dignitaries, captains of industry, and even actual divers, for whom the watch was designed. It is perhaps the best example of a tough “tool” watch becoming a luxury icon.

Its toolness has never been compromised, however. You could buy one today, wear it to work at the office all week and then beat the daylights out of it on the weekends and it wouldn’t complain. The Sub’s automatic movement isn’t as fancy as some other high-end watches, but it’s basically bulletproof. And Sub’s hold their value spectacularly well (although some critics consider it to be the most overpriced watch in existence). In the past decade, vintage Sub’s have also become highly collectible.

It a true classic of modern horological design, often emulated but never equaled — or surpassed. Here’s what makes the watch so great:

What if I decide to sell my diamond?

Next time you buy a diamond at a store ask the sales person two questions. Will you buy it back and what amount will you pay? That might be an awkward question, especially if you’re with the person that is receiving the jewelry. However, the response may shock you if not entirely dissuade from diamonds all together. In most cases, 99% of most cases, the jewelry store will tell you that they don’t buy used jewelry. After all, selling to people who are in love with excessive cash is much more preferable for a jewelry store. Jewelry stores don’t want upset customers in their lobbies complaining that the $10,000 diamond ring they bought last year is worth $1900.00 today. Jewelry stores sell dreams and that is great until you awake. So the next time you want to buy a diamond don’t forget to ask two questions. Will you buy it back and what amount will you pay? If you want to hear the numbers go to Bancless. Selling diamonds everyday with a buy back price at Bancless. Numbers don’t lie and we want to prove it. Bancless.com

The difference between carats or karats in selling jewelry.

Carat weight is used to identify the physical weight of a diamond or gemstone. Also, carat is one of the four Cs used to determine a diamonds value. The other Cs are cut, clarity and color. A karat is not a unit of weight. The word karat refers to the amount of gold in a particular item. Pure gold is 24 karat or 24KT and 18KT is 75% pure gold.

Pawn shops, the good, the bad and the ugly.

If you have been into a Phoenix pawn shop you probably would agree that many are just bad. Locals use them for various reasons but most would also agree it isn’t because of the atmosphere. A typical visit may leave even the coolest customer a little hot. Here is a story of a customer that needed to sell his jewelry. “The intellectuals behind the counter love to make you feel at home when you enter. Somehow a dead eye stare has replaced a friendly greeting and that’s just the beginning. The awkward moments just increase as you move closer to the center of their domain. I just want to say that I know people who make minimum wage and have a great work ethic and attitude. That being said, WTF is it with these employees at pawn shops? Their cavalier and smug, take or leave it attitude leaves me wondering why I got out of my car.” Life is about choices where you and I, and everyone, must make them day in and day out. So the next time you are in a Phoenix pawn shop and given the ultimatum to take or leave it. Leave it and come to Bancless. Exceptional customer experience, lowest interest rates and unmatched prices. Numbers don’t lie and we want to prove it. Bancless.com
