You have a secret hidden up your sleeve. Strapped to your wristis a miniature masterpiece, composed of hundreds of tiny movingparts that measure the steady heartbeat of the universe. You lovethis watch. And you still smile every time you check it, because youremember that you almost didnt buy it. You almost turned thepage without a second thought, figuring that the StauerMetropolitan Watch for only $29 was just too good to be true.But now you know how right it feels to be wrong.
Our lowest price EVER for a classic mens dress watch. How canwe offer theMetropolitan for less than $30? The answer is simple.
Stauer has sold over one million watches in the last decade andmany of our clients buy more than one. Our goal isnt to sell you asingle watch, our goal is to help you fall in love with Stauers entireline of vintage-inspired luxury timepieces and jewelry. And every greatrelationship has to start somewhere...
Tells todays time with yesterdays style. The Metropolitan isexactly the kind of elegant, must-have accessory that belongs inevery gentlemans collection next to his British cufflinks and Italianneckties. Inspired by a rare 1929 Swiss classic found at auction, theMetropolitan Watchrevives a distinctive and debonair retro designfor 21st-century men of exceptional taste.
The Stauer Metropolitan retains all the hallmarks of a well-bred
wristwatch including a gold-finished case, antique ivory guilloche
face, blued Breguet-style hands, an easy-to-read date window at the3 oclock position, and a crown of sapphire blue. It secures with acrocodile-patterned, genuine black leather strap and is water resistantto 3 ATM.

When Northern Ireland declared 2016
to be a celebration of the countrys
culinary and cultural riches, it ended up
scheduling a full 366 days of foodie experi-
ences and events. That extra day is proof that
the cornucopia of everything delicious about
this country is truly overflowing. Thanks
to its wild coasts, endless green acres and
famously changeable weather, Northern
Irelands beef, lamb, game, seafood, dairy,
fruit and vegetables are among the best in
the world. To best experience the local food
culture, see, taste and talk to the artisan pro-
ducers at one of the many farmers markets.
A great place to begin your Irish foodie
adventure is in Belfast, where talented chefs
have taken advantage of this abundance to
create a local culinary renaissance. Restau-
rateur Michael Deane is at its forefront, with
seven restaurants that have earned him
a Michelin star for 12 consecutive years.
Deanes Meat Locker is almost a place of
pilgrimage for steak lovers; its beef is
sourced from over 100 of Northern Irelands
best producers and then aged in a chamber
of hand-cut Himalayan rock salt bricks
before being grilled to succulent perfec-
tion. The not so carnivorously inclined will
want to flock to OX, a relative newcomer to
Belfasts dining scene acclaimed for its
peaceful setting overlooking the River Lagan
and its changeable feast of seasonal dishes
featuring the freshest produce, paired with
a superb list of artisanal wines and spirits.
Next, a trip to Titanic Belfastwill satisfy your
appetite for adventure. There you can ex-
plore the historic shipyard with its nine inter-
active galleries, and uncover the mysteries of
the RMS Titanicin the city where it all began.
From Belfast take a leisurely drive along the
Causeway Coastal Route, which hugs a strip
of coastline perched between sea and high
cliffs. This spectacular scenery is perhaps
best enjoyed with a visit to The Gobbins,
a marine cliff path famed for its ravines,
caves and natural aquariums. Considered
an engineering marvel when first opened
in 1902, The Gobbins fell into disrepair and
closed before being reengineered and re-
opened in 2015, with 15 new bridges and a
tunnel that plunges beneath the waves.
No visit to Northern Ireland would be
complete without exploring its heritage
and history. The medieval walls of Derry-
Londonderry enclose an ancient city with
a lively heartits population is one of the
youngest in Europe. History, both real and
imagined, comes alive here in attractions like
the Tower Museumwith its landmark exhi-
bitions, and Mussenden, a tiny temple atop
Downhill Beach, which was transformed into
Dragonstone during the filming of HBOs
Game of Thrones.
