October is shaping up to be an exciting month at the store, and we have a special event we have been looking forward to for quite some time. On October 15th, we will be hosting our Watch Event, featuring some great names in the world of watches, including Seiko and Hamilton. We are also excited to introduce the Accutron brand to our customers for the first time. Whether you are a dedicated watch enthusiast or simply looking for a quality timepiece that can be worn for years to come, this event will be a great opportunity to see these collections in person and find something that fits your style.
With the holiday season getting closer, October is also the perfect time to start thinking about Christmas gifts. This month we are hosting a Wish List Week, giving you the opportunity to come in, browse the store and add some of your favorite jewelry and gift ideas to your personal wish list. It is an easy way to give family and friends some helpful hints before the holidays, so they know exactly what you would love to find under the tree this year.
If you are considering a custom-designed Christmas gift, now is definitely the time to get started. A custom piece takes a little more planning than simply choosing something from the display case, particularly when you are creating something with a personal meaning or one-of-a-kind design. Whether you have an idea for a special ring, pendant, bracelet or another piece of jewelry, getting the process underway in October gives us plenty of time to discuss your ideas, select gemstones and metals, create the design and complete the finished piece before Christmas.
Layaway can also be a helpful way to spread out your holiday purchases. Rather than waiting until December and facing the expense of buying several gifts at once, layaway allows you to select gifts ahead of time and make payments over a period of time. Starting early can make holiday shopping feel much more manageable and can help reduce the financial sting that sometimes arrives in January. It is also a great way to make sure those special gifts are chosen before the holiday rush.
If you are looking specifically for a gift for an October baby, you’ll be happy to know that October actually has two beautiful birthstones to choose from: opal and tourmaline. Opal is well-known for its fascinating play of color, with flashes of pink, blue, green, yellow and other shades appearing within the stone. Tourmaline is equally versatile and can be found in a remarkable range of colors, including the popular pink and green varieties. This gives you the opportunity to find a gift that is colorful, distinctive and personal for that special someone..
Between our October 15th Watch Event, Wish List Week, custom jewelry and layaway, there are plenty of reasons to drop in for a visit this month. Christmas may still seem a little way off, but getting started now can make the holiday season much less hectic. Stop in, explore the latest watches and jewelry, talk with us about your Christmas ideas, and let us help you make this year’s gifts especially memorable.
