JomaDeals “Best Deals of 2009” series: a classy, luxury ladies watch to help you ring in the new year. This deal of the day is $349 (77% off the $1490 retail price). Sale ends at midnight tonight (EST). December 31, 2009.
Happy New Year’s Eve! No doubt you’ll be running off to this party or that party or just watching Ryan Seacrest with Dick Clark broadcast from New York in the comfort of your own living room. And as the clock strikes twelve, people around the world will gather to sing that one New Year’s song, "Auld Something Whatever":“Should old acquaintance be forgot
And never mumble mumble light?
Should old acquaintance be forgot
And old mumble mumble sign?”
“For old acquaintance be, my dear,
For mumble mumble la la sign,
We’ll take the pup that was upset,
And old something sign.”
Yes, those are the glorious words sung ‘round the world to ring in the New Year. But unknown to most people is that those are not the original words. Here are the official lyrics:
“Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And days auld lang syne?
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne!”
No wonder no one gets the words right. Half of it is German. At least counting down from ten is easy. And what better way to do it than with today’s daily deal, the Baume and Mercier Hampton Classic Ladies watch. It’s a gorgeous timepiece that was one of the greatest hits of 2009. It’s a genuine name brand watch that comes with a leather strap, scratch resistant sapphire crystal, superior quartz movement, and the JomaDeals 2-year warranty. So enjoy the watch, and print this listing to take with you to your party. Everyone will be impressed that you know the original lyrics, that is, if they’re sober enough to understand what you’re singing in the first place. If they’re not, mumbling will probably be just as good. Happy New Year, JomaJunkies.

ABOUT BRAND
The Baume & Mercier is one of the oldest and finest watch making companies.
In 1592 Native of Franche Comté, the Baume family settled in the Les Bois village in the Swiss Jura Mountains from 1542. Carrying out watch-manufacturing work (name given to subcontracting in watch-making at the time), the Baume's passed on their knowledge of watch mechanisms from father to son.
In 1834, at the heart of a century marked by extraordinary scientific and industrial progress, brothers Louis Victor and Pierre-Joseph-Célestin Baume founded the house of the same name and registered it as an agency in the Les Bois village, in the Swiss Jura Mountains. There was only one slogan: "Accept only perfection, only manufacture watches of the highest quality". To this day, that slogan still stands as the company’s hallmark and ongoing mission. They continue to make watches to this day of the highest quality that are both the envy and the admiration of the timepiece world.
By 1918 the Baume family joined together with the Mercier family, whose watch designs and artistic abilities were exceptional, and this merger began the Baume et Mercier watch company. It was not long before the Baume & Mercier (guess that "&" was put in there for us Americans , the "original" name "Baume et Mercier.") watch company became prominent for their chronographs and precise watch timekeeping mechanisms.
Today, Baume & Mercier continues to produce their branded classic and sporty watch styles in quality timepieces to distinguish itself and surprise with a successful combination of watch making expertise and technological innovation.
