Welcome to TIME WELL SPENT Monthly e-zine
Don't under-order. "It is better to have more than you need
than to need more than you have."
What is the suggested maximum storage time for watch stock?
What is the expected lifetime of a watch battery?
Find the answers in the following article.
___________________________________________________________
____________________ FEATURE ARTICLE ______________________
STORAGE: and Lifetime of a Watch Battery
Usually, the lifetime of a watch battery is between two
and five years. It depends on the type of watch and the
amount of energy required by the different functions.
A chronograph will have a higher energy consumption than
a standard watch with 2 hands.
Pulling out the crown of a quartz watch when not wearing
it for long periods of time will stop the energy
consumption of the battery - and possibly save you
75 - 80 percent of the battery's power.
If you've considered purchasing logo watches that would be
distributed over time, but were concerned about battery
usage during storage, we have the perfect solution.
As a free service we can put an easy to remove plastic
stopper between crown and case - so that the watch battery
energy is not consumed. Battery energy is not consumed
until the plastic stopper is removed.
Your watches have optimal battery energy from the moment
they're first worn! You don't have to worry about your
customer having the negative experience of needing to
replace the battery so soon.
However, please note that a battery will lose 5 - 8 percent
of its power a year just sitting unused.
So, how long is the best storage time for watch stock?
We recommend it only for max. 1 year. But it depends also
on the quality of the watch and the storage environment.
Ask us about this when you make your order.

How To Go From Slogan to Ideal Promotional Product...
*TIME for a change* - an ideal slogan for announcing
a new, better way of doing things. Thinking outside the
box - to achieve better results.
Yes! We're talking about the power of slogan.
We know the process: Find a lead theme - make it a
slogan - get the message out and repeat it as long
as it takes until it takes hold.
*TIME for a change*
What would be the ideal promotional product
for this slogan?
Imagine a unique 24 Hour Dial (military Time) watch whose
dial is imprinted with the slogan *TIME for a change*.
The 24 Hour Dial Watch. It's different. It's new and
exciting. It tells time. It's a change.
You too can successfully bundle your unique slogan
with an equally unique watch whose theme drives home
your marketing message.
Save yourself a lot of time and effort searching for the
perfect product that communicates the uniqueness of your
slogan and your product - simply have your very own
unique slogan - *FILL it in here* - imprinted on the
dial of a unique 24 hour watch.
Every time your clients or sales reps look at this watch -
they'll see the Time in the different - unique manner
presented.
Everyone who receives one will remember your slogan and
your product. It works.
See for yourself. Imagine your slogan and...
how it works for you.

Driver, Dual Time International and more.
Question: Would a 24 Hour watch be an effective marketing
tool for a slogan like *Service around the Clock* ?
With a watch that counts all the 24 hours in a day-You bet!
Do you have a slogan? Bundle it - and get stronger results.
