Luxurious life

"The Indian gold may be a little weak, because it is so intense yellow," says Pamela Baffour-Djan, metallic looking bracelets custody, "but that is because it is at least 22 carats," nearly pure .

She disappears into a safe storage and returns with a jaw-dropping line of high-end loot, all left Borro loan guarantee, pawnshops online. Sort Cartier diamond and pearl necklace, apparently worth € 50,000. It is followed by a solid gold Rolex watch with a face that shines like a huge clockwork currency. 1950 Fender guitar comes next, then a few diamonds thick ring around so much it looks like a miniature pool sapphire has an oligarch. Once symbols of success of their owners, these luxury items in the vault of Borro, the depths of the London Chancery Lane, represent a new type of deposit loan is far from being the poignant lines of wedding rings found in simple pawnbrokers as a traditional year-old Ferrari a used car.

The company pion exchange. Pawnshops were once considered the last resort of the poor, but it has become more socially acceptable for everyone, including the rich, borrowing against the personal valuables.

"Small businesses represent 65 percent of our business, but in the end, we the people ... businessman over 200 employees, "said Paul Aitken, CEO of Borro.

"These are often people who have bought assets in the event was good and now they want to return cash without delay."

The increasing use of pawnbrokers by the rich is not a British phenomenon. Pawngo U.S. online broker, founded in 2011, also found that entrepreneurs are increasingly relying on services to increase loans quickly without too many questions. Offering what he calls a "white glove, five-star service," CEO Todd Pawngo Ellis said he also wealthy clients who want the splendor of past good times guaranteed loans attract.

"We recently approved a loan of $ 125,000 for a client who had clearly once a great time to Louis Vuitton. The customer sent us a collection of eight to 10 impeccably Vuitton handbags, plus a large diamond and some beautiful replica watches. '

While some objects placed with this new style of pawnbroker, such as gold jewelry, may deliberately purchased as a store of value, much less obvious pitfalls of the good life also end up in the coffers, which suggests clients have often taken by surprise by a need for quick cash. Pawngo accept nothing that can not be shipped via FedEx. Unlike Borro, a large cache of art, most of the stored Christie. The company also owns a fleet of Ferraris and Porsches. To protect the identity of lenders, Borro is closed on the works they have obtained, although Aitken mentions the name of Warhol, Picasso, Henry Moore and Damien Hirst as artists whose work has spent time on the inventory Borro. The acceptability of property loans are good news for a change of angle of the pawnbroking business. But the idea that those who are committed to their business and personal finances afloat with the progress of their swiss replica watches and handbags seem precarious. Both Borro and Pawngo say though they have a reasonable, even prudent to offer a service at a time when bank loans can often be difficult to obtain.

"What I hear most often from clients is that business is good, but the money comes slowly," says Ellis Pawngo the. "In general, my clients are entrepreneurs who in the past had a lot of access to credit, banks are now more reluctant. Banks now have to go through many processes and are not really helping small businesses. "

Swiss watchmaking goes high tech

Walking through one of the factories of Rolex Replica, I can not help but be amazed at the large number of manufacturing, processing and assembly of the research is to create a watch. It feels like I was in another car factory, with high-tech equipment and dedicated workers who take Centrestage. Rolex employs over 6,000 people in Switzerland alone, so it is an intrinsic part of the Swiss economy. It is also a watch brand is remembered like no other brand. To get yourself a Rolex watch prestige in the eyes of greedy neighbors.

We were a group of select few had the opportunity to visit three of the four sites Rolex in Geneva. Sandwich Sunny in the morning with a touch of autumn is coming around the interpretation of the long journey ahead. This was the first time one of Rolex Indian journalists invite their factories, and since it is like any other luxury brand watches Swiss like to keep secret his work, this trip was something that fills us all with a sense of anticipation and excitement.

The world of Rolex UK at four locations: the global headquarters of Acacias, making movements in Bienne, casting gold bracelets and cases, les Ouates and creating a plan and set the dials in Chêne-jewel Bourg. Our first stop was at Acacias, where the distinctive green brand logo stands out among the other surrounding buildings. Acacias also where to put the final assembly of these watches takes place. Some of the watches come from the other four locations and trained employees assemble the pieces to create a password, then subjected to rigorous testing of water resistance. After all Oyster watches taken action against one of the best known in the world? I was hoping to see some of the machines do the work in an assembly-style controller, but I was pleasantly surprised by the presence of workers at all stages of the process. This trend of robotics are used only when absolutely necessary, is followed in all areas of Rolex. As far as possible, people use to create their replica watches, and only come in testing machines, alloy, transport and other mechanical functions. Quick hands and agile pieces falling into place. A twist here, a brush and the final product ready to be tested, boxed and shipped to retailers worldwide. Even placing a handmade box, so that you will know that your watch someone's attention.

The next stop was the Plan-les-Ouates, when all he saw, or choose to view the gold! This site hosts a foundry when Rolex create own materials as Everose and other alloys. Ovens hot drops of liquid gold poured down enough. Men Butch hammering in creating gold bars or logs sheets and then cut case bracelet links. Again, the man's hand touched all aspects of the process. Moreover because a large amount of research to create the alloy. Where else can you see a side stand a PhD in Chemistry or sit next material scientist from melting? More like a vision of steroids lab young watchmaker atelier picturesque, this place was by far one of the most interesting. Grapes grow on vines on the scene helped add to the charm too.

But, of course, the highlight of my trip was the visit to Chêne-Bourg, Rolex brand created, and the process of jewel on the entire property. This year at Baselworld, we move to the new line Cosmograph Daytona gemset rainbow. Here, I have to see the gemsetters work on it, but with the precision and commitment of the Rolex name. Edited sapphires, diamonds, rubies and other precious stones using different criteria and in perfect order and adjust the dial. The selection process can be automated, but the site can only be done by hand to produce the desired effect. "Oohs" and "Aahs" toured the group as we watched the smooth model gemsetter the dial to adjust the brilliant baguettes. Highly qualified and well-trained and well-trained employees Rolex is the brand that it is today.

The focus on people extends the brand in other areas as well.
