eBay and the Department of Industrial Promotion (DIP) today announced the launch of an e-commerce seminar and workshop that will be held on December 17 and 18, 2009 at Far Eastern University Airport Campus in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Titled, “Expand Your Business - Explore World Markets in 2010 through eBay”, it is aimed at helping Thai businesses to take advantage of export opportunities available via the Internet.
Arthit Wuthikaro, Director-General, Department of Industrial Promotion said, “The Department of Industrial Promotion has been collaborating with eBay to provide e-commerce training programs in Bangkok and other neighbouring parts of Thailand. In Chiang Mai, there is a strong supply of beautiful Thai clothing, handicrafts and jewellery which are popular with buyers around the world. We hope that through this joint event with eBay, Chiang Mai manufacturers will learn more about the opportunities that e-commerce brings and expand their sales channels internationally through eBay.”
According to a 2008 survey on e-commerce in Thailand conducted by the National Statistics Office, fashion, jewelry and clothing were the most popular products sold online, accounting for 29.4% of all e-commerce in Thailand.
Oliver Hua, Chief Operating Officer, eBay Greater China and Southeast Asia added, “We have seen positive results since the partnership announcement between eBay and the DIP in February 2009. More than 250 Thai businesses participated in the training programs and have started selling internationally on eBay’s global online marketplace. With US$15 billion in sales generated in the third quarter of 2009 alone and 89 million active members worldwide, eBay presents Thai businesses with a new and innovative sales channel in today’s competitive environment.”

THE OMEGA CONSTELLATION’S BRIGHTEST STAR
Every constellation in the universe has its brightest stars, and in OMEGA’s newly-redesigned Constellation line, nothing glitters more brilliantly than the unique and luxurious Constellation Baguette.
The Constellation Baguette has been created with a strong and vivid visual identity – its dial displays a dramatic supernova structure which emanates boldly from the diamond Constellation star on its mother-of-pearl background at 6 o’clock. The one-of-a-kind masterpiece glistens with 459 Top Wesselton diamonds totalling just over 30 carats.
The “invisible” mounting of the 146 baguette and trapeze diamonds on the dial means that no trace of the 18 Ct white gold used in the creation of its case can be seen between the precious stones.
The Constellation Baguette is not only an aesthetic wonder: it is driven by the OMEGA Co-Axial calibre 8421. OMEGA’s Co-Axial technology, introduced in 1999, has revolutionized the way fine mechanical watches are made. The movement’s Co-Axial escapement reduces the amount of sliding friction in the watch, virtually eliminating the need for lubrication, which means longer service intervals and greater precision over time. The Si 14 silicon balance spring adds resistance to shock and the effects of external disturbances.
Because the OMEGA Constellation Baguette is a one-of-a-kind horological masterpiece, every one of its 459 diamonds has been cut specifically for the watch. As a result, if one of the stones needs to be replaced or exchanged, the process can take longer than it would for a series-production watch. Any new diamond will have to be custom-prepared so that it matches the colour, clarity, cut and carat size of the stones around it. In fact, due to the absolutely unique nature of the Constellation Baguette, no standard replacement parts can be kept in stock – each one would have to be specially created for this extraordinary timepiece.
The OMEGA Constellation Baguette is the most elegant Constellation ever created and expresses the ultimate blend of elegant design and superior watchmaking.
