For those who love… time is eternity…





Honestly, what can I really say about these watches that isn't clear from what you see. Designer Lego style digital timepieces from French designer JC de Castelbajac (JC DC). It is actually part of his whole future Lego wear lineup. You can see the Lego version of it in the video, and images from the real runway show below. Odd? Sure. Provocative? Maybe. "No darling, leave the Lego baseball cap on in bed, I like it that way." Weird stuff, but it is cool. The JC DC Lego watches comes in a number of colors - six versions to be exact. See them being worn all at the same time all Nicolas Hayek style. The style is 80s, very 80s - but apparently that is in right now. He seems to suggest that the future will be like the 80s. Given what is going on in the world right now, I could use some of that "America is the best place in the world" mentality these days. With the popularity of Lego as well as the positive association many people have with them, I have to say that JC DC did a nice job making something interesting to look at in the least.








Important to me however are the watches. Not sure if they are officially licensed by Lego, or if that is even necessary, but you get the idea just by looking at them. The simple bright colors, and the nubs on the strap all indicate that one special building block. The watches themselves are made with a JC DC partnership with watch maker odm - known for quirky and cool (mostly) digital watches. Look out for their military style dog tags necklace watch.The JC DC Lego watch collection is due out for sale this year - not exactly sure when or how much they will be. Likely in the $100 - $200 range given their "designer nature." The digital watches obviously have quartz movements and large "my first wrist watch" style to them. Not sure about what the functions will be aide from the time. Probably basic stuff like a calendar. Pushers might be on the back of the watch case. The strap is likely mostly rubber and has actual links near the butterfly clasp for sizing. This is preferable over having to cut the straps to size. Over the LCD screen is a colorful bezel that looks to be done in aluminum or some other metal. The JC DC logo below the screen helps add to the fashion worthiness of the watch. I can't help but think that the watches are totally cool. I don't know too much about JC DC, but I do know o.d.m. (odm), and Lego - and I like both a lot. Look out for these soon, where ever JC de Castelbajac "stuff" is sold.

The History of the Famous and 

Colorful Blocks


We all remember growing up with various toys. However, one of the most classic toys that has stayed a favorite of children over the years is the LEGO brick. These simple, colorful blocks offer children a way to enhance their imagination and make their dreams become a reality. Whether it is building a future dream house, a fantasy castle, or trying to build the tallest lego building, kids just love legos.
These are excellent toys not only to be used at home for fun play time, but also in the classroom or after school care facilities to create an imagination filled curriculum for students. While using Legos for science projects or just for fun is great and easy, it is important to recognize the journey these blocks underwent to become a favorite toy choice for American family.





LEGO has been an integral part in the lives of children across the world for many years. Not only do they supply building blocks for children to enjoy fun and inspiring play time, but they have evolved to include other educational tools such as books, building sets that engage children in science, transportation vehicles, and action figures. LEGO has released many products that are inspired from popular movies and shows, including Harry Potter, Prince of Persia, Toy Story, Star Wars, SpongeBob Square Pants, Bionicle, and Thomas and Friends.

Each link in the chunky strap looks like a brick from that classic toy. It has cool invisible buttons that are touch-sensitive and the oversized LED display can be set to scroll the date, time and a message. The backlight reveals the JC/DC logo and it comes in a fantastic box like a Rubik’s cube.

TALK SLOWLY BUT THINK QUICKLY ABOUT TIME

The three important reasons of wearing a watch aside from being able to read the time is: Professionalism, Time Management, and Personality Fit. There are various reasons why a person would wear a watch, but the three previously expressed is what you’re about find out.



Reason 1: Professionalism – Inside the business profession, it is important to have a nice watch. It shows symmetry with the proper dress code. For example, if you are wearing a suite and tie, a fashionable watch that matches the outfit, says a lot about your character. It also demonstrates the type of taste you have when it comes to jewelry. Keeping a shining image goes a long way inside the business world. Sometimes your appearance speaks louder before you can verbally say a word at any given volume.


Reason 2: Time Management – Whether you’re in the business world or living the personal lifestyle, having a watch is the very tool that can help you with time management. It can be used to get you on track by getting places on time. If you’re not a punctual person, then maybe having a watch is just what you need in order to avoid being late to your next appointment. When you manage your time effectively, it looks good in front of other people. It also shows you are reliable and consciences of others. Once you respect your time, you will find it easier to respect other people’s time. I recall someone once telling me, “If you respect another individuals time, you respect their money.” It is true. And when you manage your time, you are able to manage your life in a dedicated routine to accomplishing more and being productive.



Reason 3: Personality Fit – Depending on the watch you wear, can sometimes reveal the type of personality you have. This doesn’t go for everyone, only to some people that fit the part. If you have a high-class attitude, most likely you’ll be wearing a high-class watch. If you’re down to earth and mellow with a humble mind-set, then a casual watch would fit your personality best. It’s all about the person you are and the style and quality you prefer to have wrapped around your wrist. Some people rather to wear their watch on their left wrist, as opposed to others who find it more comfortable to wear it on their right wrist. It’s all up to you and the person you are.
