luxury jewellery and watch brand cartier image
Piccola Yu
You know how she sings about Vi Vi X cuff links in this song. So I am just wondering what is that? Is that a brand of jewelry or something?
Answer
she's not saying vi vi x, but v.v.s. cuff links.
v.v.s. is an acronim for Very Very Shiny stones. It has nothing to do with the clarity or color, but mainly its brilliance. How the light hits the stone or gem and refracts light, causing them to shine with elegance. check out this link. it will give u sum insight to other things named checked in the song. V.V.S is also an acronim for Very Very Slightly Included, its a way of describing the clarity of a diamond. so she's basicly saying cuff link with diamonds in them.
Here are some other things the song name checks.
Audemars Piguet, a Swiss watchmaker
Jacob the Jeweler, a celebrity jeweler
Cartier, a jeweler and watch manufacturer
Hermès, a luxury goods company
Lorraine Schwartz, a celebrity jeweler
Ralph Lauren Purple Label, a higher-end division of the legendary designer's clothing line
Natura Bisse Diamond Cream, diamond dust mixed with cream that costs $235 for only 1.7 ounces
6 star pent suites, only a handful exist in the world such as Crown Macau in China and Dreams Los Cabos near San Jose del Cabo in Mexico
The Amalfi Coast, located in southern Italy. It's an easy trek to the islands of Capri, the Bay of Naples' Ischia and Procida
Fendi, a luxury goods company
The Bloomberg Luxury Accommodation Group, located in South Africa and caters to Hollywood-millionaire types

trying to buy a watch ?
Sayid Forg
i'm trying to buy a watch around 800 - 900 US $
i'm 17 by now and wanted to know what is the cheapest Chopard Model and is it good to buy a low price but a Big Brand or the best model of the low Brand ??
Answer
I have a couple from each instance you are bringing up. On one hand I have a Rolex DateJust and an Omega Seamaster, and on the other, a decent higher end Tremalt. My advice would be not to be terribly caught up on the name brand... because the name brand is essentially what you are paying for. If there is, however, a function that you cannot live without or a specific model that you are craving (which it doesn't sound like is the case), then do your research, however, new models will only be sold in the stores, although there are a few reputable used watch sellers on ebay with thousands of feedback scores (make sure they are all from watches, not fluffed with action figure sales or something!!).
FYI, to answer your question literally, the Chopard happy sport models are the cheapest.
Also, if you plan to spend that cash, please make sure you are buying a timepiece, rather than a nice bracelet with a clock in it. Look for a chronometer, aka mechanical or self-winding movement. This will give and allow it to maintain it's value, although admittently not as accurate and requires service. Movado, Tag Heuer, and yes.. Chopard are indeed some of the culprits who don't necessarily specialize in timepieces, but rather, timekeeping jewelry.
Check out the Omega Constellation line... Oris and Longines are pretty good for the money too, as they don't sell for their retail often. Keep in mind... if you are getting a Cartier or Rolex, you still are not getting the dream of a swiss watchmaker laboring hours over your watch individually... they are mass produced. THe lesser known true luxury watches such as Patek Philippe, Audemars, and Vacherons are more along that line. So, please get something that's worth keeping, but don't do it "just to have one". Most will concur that a 12 dollar Casio will keep better time :)
