REPLICA ROMAIN JEROME WATCH AND ITS HISTORICAL CLAIMS

The great watch maker namely Mr. Romain Jerome woke up in the early hours of April 15, 1912 and announced to the world that he had produced a solid watch out of the wreckage of the ill-fated Titanic Ocean liner which capsized a day before. The Great and infamous Titanic Ship capsized when it collided with an ice berg. This happened on its very first maiden voyage on the 14th of April 1912. Most of the occupants of the ship also lost their lives. In what looked like a dramatic caricature, Mr. Romain Jerome came up the next day and claimed that he made his wonderful maiden watch brand out of the stainless steel wreckage of the ill-fated ship. In order to validate his claims, he went ahead to name his major brand with the same name Titanic which the ship bore.

However, one thing is sure: Romain Jerome actually invented a watch brand. But the issue of the brand being made form the wreckage steel of the ship remains an unverified claim. Perhaps, when Romain Jerome is accosted in the Great Beyond, he’ll explain better.

Meanwhile, the Titanic watch and some other models of the Romain Jerome brand are currently known to be very expensive. In fact the historical claim makes the models very costly. They are going for the average amount of $4700 and above. This necessitated the introduction of the replica models into the Swiss watch world. Since their invention, the replica Romain Jerome watches have remained very unique and cheap. With a meager amount of $280, you are sure of having a model.

In all, solid features also seen in the original versions make up the wonderful replica versions. They are indeed watches to look out for this Yuletide season.
