Since their launch in 2006, BlumLux has been on the forefront of men’s jewelry and watches. Headed by brother and sister duo, BlumLux has been awarded the coveted Rising Star, and the National Jeweler’s Top Men’s Designer.

Known for their stylish yet sophisticated clean lines and attention to detail, BlumLux has been making a name for itself in the watch industry. The classic, yet modern look was designed to be worn for a lifetime.

Designer Nick Blum headed off to Switzerland last winter to fulfill a lifelong goal to create his own line of watches. After making his designs come to life, the “must-have” watch was born. The new watch line, Louie Quattro, is the first line of watches for BlumLux. “designing watches has always been a deep passion of mine since I was a little boy.” said Nick Blum.

The name Louie Quattro was derived from Nick’s father, Louis Franklin Blum III. The Louie Quattro was created to represent the qualities that Nick witnessed in his father: Wisdom. Integrity. Strength. “It is our hope that when you wear your Louie Quattro watch, you will be encouraged to become the man you are meant to be.”

The Louie Quattro collection is hand crafted in Switzerland with a 25 jewel automatic jewel ETA movement. Combining the timeless BlumLux style with exceptional craftsmanship provides men with theperfect arsenal to having the perfect watch. Each watch is curved perfectly to fit the average man’s wrist with supreme comfort and fit!

We were very excited to sell our first Louie Quattro!!!  It was defintiely fitting that the first Louie Quattro now belongs to Nick’s life long best friend, PGA Pro Clif Cobb!  Now, they’re even more alike!

We are still on a high from obtaining the Louie Quattro!  We woke up at the crack of dawn this morning because we were so excited!!!  Nick is currently video taping our room… I think he likes any excuse to use his video camera!Let’s be honest, the real reason I’m so excited is to wear my new dresses!  Plus, I have new makeup (thank you Lauren) and a new haircut (thank you Kristen).  I’m wearing one of the dresses that I picked up from Marissa’s in Naples.  Good find Mom!The Sex and the City movie came out today!  I can’t wait to see it!  I wish I wasn’t working all week so I could have a big girls night like the rest of the world!  …Hey Mr. Big, the Louie Quattro would be perfect for you!We’re so excited… I’ll keep you updated!  Nick says, “What up sahns and sahnitas!”

Nick and I arrived in Las Vegas this morning!  We setup our booth in under two hours… record time… we’re becoming pros at the setup!  However, that is not the most exciting news that we have…Our first two watches were hand delivered from Switzerland today!!!  Let me be the first to tell you… They are awesome!  They’re definitely like nothing you’ve ever seen before!  The watches are named “Louie Quattro.”  My dad was Louis III, so in turn Nick would have been Louis IV if my mother wouldn’t have decided on his name.Nick has fulfilled his life long dream of creating his own watch!  He is currently beaming… holding the watch up to his ear, just listening to the movements!  He’s already thinking of a new goal to obtain!  From laminated paper watches as a child to wearing the real thing… I can’t wait to see what he comes up with next!We’re so pumped to debut the Louie Quattro, as well as the rest of our new pieces!  We’re off to bed early tonight… who knows what the rest of the week will bring!  Wish us luck!!!

I hope everyone has a great holiday weekend!

Attention Ladies, it’s finally happened!!!  What an exciting day!!!  I have been hoping for Nick to design a women’s line since we first started BlumLux.  I’ve been dropping hints, even sketching out my wish list, but Nick has continued to just create men’s pieces. 

He definitely surprised me today… by unveiling the first women’s necklace!  Let me tell you, it is awesome!  I CAN’T wait to be wearing it!!!  Finally!!!  We get calls and emails every day for women’s pieces with the BlumLux look… this is going to make JCK so exciting!  Look for the pieces to be on the website in June!

I just got off the phone with Nick.  He just arrived in Paris!  I mean why not go to the most romantic city in the world on the most romantic day of the year?  I’m so jealous!  He said it’s awesome.  He said his brain is buzzing… inspiration from every corner.  Do I sense a women’s line coming in the near future???  I hope so!!!

Happy Valentine’s Day!  It’s been quite an exciting day for BlumLux!  We started off the day with a singing telegram!  The Purdue Music Organization came into the office this morning… they were sent by my mother!  Wow… was I embarrassed!!!  However, I was not shocked when I found out it was from my mother!  No worries, I’ll get her back!  Now, for our big news… IT’S FINALLY HERE!!!  We are launching our online store today!!!  We’re so excited to offer our pieces to the world!  You’ve probably noticed that our line has really expanded!  We decided to wait until the online store launched to unveil our new pieces.  We now have money clips, tie clips, and bracelets!  We also added some new pendants and rings.  Check them out and let us know what you think!  We hope you like our site!  We’ve had a great time working with Kemba and the gang to get it ready!
