STRICTLY 2 MAXIMUM PER CUSTOMER
The Smiths Everest Silver Jubilee Limited Edition has been manufactured to celebrate 25 years of selling watches on the internet. It is a numbered limited edition of 500 pieces and will not be available again once these have been sold.
The main changes from the regular Smiths Everest are the beautiful aventurine dial and the high quality jubilee bracelet.

Aventurine is a variety of translucent quartz or quartzite with abundant small plate or flake-shaped inclusions. Light entering the quartz strikes these inclusions and reflects from them. This produces a sparkly appearance known as "aventurescence." The inclusions can also impart a distinct, and often beautiful, colour to the material.
Depending on how the light strikes the dial, it can appear to be anything from black to royal blue and produces a glittering effect when moved. Because aventurine is a mined mineral, each dial is slightly different.

Supplied in a specially commissioned two watch travelling case.
All watches are guaranteed against defective workmanship for 24 months from
date of purchase and the guarantee for the first 12 months applies to the
original purchaser only.

really liking TRANSLUCENT QUARTZ or QUARTZITE...looks like AVENTURINE aka VENETIAN GLASS...yup i think AVENTURINE-VENETIAN GLASS-TRANSLUCENT QUARTZ-QUARTZITE are all NAMES FOR THE SAME ...probably a " gemstone "

I can't think of a finer way to pass the tyme than holding my AVENTURINE DIAL up to the sun

I will look forward to learning more one this...just like all the other horo rabbit holes I studied up on...e.g. DAMASCUS STEEL, CALIFORNIA DIAL, JACQUES COUSTEAU,SEA HUNT

is there a mineralogist in the house ?

and always dig TIME FACTORS and SMITHS re-issue british mil-spec now civilian...good components...X1 lume no jacardi

lucky i can not obey the voices 'cause I am in interim housing where all packages are thrown on lobby floor heater-skelter...yikes

-will circle back on this QUARTZITE if I ever win a bidding war with "love note "
 
His store was literally opened for 4 minutes. By the time I entered the payment information Monopusher was sold out and store was closed. Eddie's model is really frustrating and "messed up". Create emotional demand raise item value and create bad feelings. At least with Zelos there is a way to pre-enter payment information but not with Timefactors website. At least I haven't figured out how to do it. Sorry for the venting!

The storefront will open precisely at the time stated, but given the sheer number of people trying to access the store, you may have to hit refresh multiple times on the purchase page. Assuming you finally get through, don't linger. Buy what you want, and quickly. After the deed is done you'll receive two emails - one for the order confirmation and the other for the payment confirmation.

However note that, the payment will only be accepted if and only if Eddie Platts at Timefactors is able to honor your order. Given the precise moment of when your order was placed, you'll know if and when Eddie is able to honor your order after a few days or a few weeks. This is because the number of orders placed for a particular item could exceed the number actually available. If Eddie is unable to honor your order, you'll receive an email for that.

All 600 pieces of the Smiths Everest sold out in 4 minutes on 7th February. More are on order but I don't expect delivery before May 2021

Down on the boulevard they take it hard
They look at life with such disregard
They say it can't be won
The way the game is run
But if you choose to stay
You end up playing anyway
It's okay

The kid's in shock up and down the block
The folks are home playing beat the clock
Down at the golden cup
They set the young ones up
Under the neon light
Selling day for night
It's alright

Nobody rides for free
Nobody gets it like they want it to be
Nobody hands you any guarantee
Nobody

The hearts are hard and the times are tough
Down on the boulevard the night's enough
And time passes slow
Between the store front shadows and the street lights glow

Everybody walks right by like they're safe or something
They don't know
Nobody knows you
Nobody owes you nothin'
Nobody shows you what they're thinking
Nobody baby

Hey, hey, baby
You got to watch the street, keep your feet
And be on guard
Make it pay baby
It's only time on the boulevard
