Silly Bands or Silly Bandz have taken over as the #1 most traded item in elementary schools. If your child has less than 200, you need more. Not joking!
The name “Silly” comes from the fact that they are made of Silicone. Particularly hot are the tie-dye Silly Bands and glow in the dark Silly Bands. Look for the rare scented and glitter also. Besides the original bracelets, there are now rings and necklaces.
My 10 year old daughter used her silly band bracelets as forms for homemade window clings. What you need: fabric paint from the craft store, saran wrap, silly band bracelet. How to: Place a silly bands on saran wrap. Fill in the shape with several colors of fabric paint. Animal and word shapes work well. Let dry for a few hours. Stick on your windows.
Enjoy!

Tudor is a very popular watch line. Who wouldn’t want a watch named after Henry the VIII, King of England? He did whatever he wanted. Great show.
The Tudor watch used to be manufactured by Rolex but was split off in the 1960s. Rolex has a higher value than the Tudor, but expect to pay well over $1,000 for either brand.
Here are the most watched Tudor line of watches.

Here’s a beautiful timepiece maker I just discovered: A. Lange & Söhne
This watch manufacturer is celebrating 165 years in business! Isn’t it great to see a business succeed over the long term?
THE 165-YEAR ANNIVERSARY EDITION. The year 2010 marks the 165th anniversary of a historic event: in 1845, Ferdinand A. Lange established his own watch manufactory in the Müglitz valley. He was a man of remarkable modesty paired with an unfaltering quest for perfection. With the establishment, F. A. Lange wanted to take on two formidable challenges of the era: The year 1845 falls within the halcyon days of the industrial revolution. The tremendous innovative thrust in manufacturing and transportation called for unprecedented timekeeping precision. However, the Ore Mountains remained isolated from progress. The remote region was plagued by unemployment and poverty. F. A. Lange decided to build the world’s finest watches and at the same time to provide the people in his native Saxony with an education and jobs. From the A. Lange & Söhne site.

I learned a new word today: fob.
A vintage fob is the charm that hangs on a pocket watch chain. Now, it can also mean a keyholder.
Vintage fobs are highly collectible and can sell for over £260 on eBay.co.uk if the watch is included. Here are the fob auctions with the highest prices.
