Why should we be forced to wear what everybody else is wearing? Let's be different!
I don't know about you, but I hate necklaces. But I got one for myself in 1996 because I wanted a gold representation of a symbol that I visualised for one of my columns (check out https://www.balaji.ind.in/ if you want to see this image).
While most of us tech guys don't always wear jewellery, it is nice to know that there are some special options for us. Read on to find out more!
The invaders are here: Remember the classic arcade game that we all played as kids? This is one of the invaders you destroyed in those days. Since killing tigers and wearing their tooth around your neck is not the done thing, maybe you can wear this in memory of all the alien invaders that you slew in arcade games! ($36.99/Rs 1,776) |
Circuit complete: This is a great thing to wear if you are a hardware IT engineer. Each circuit board is unique and they've never been soldered, so you don't have to worry about solder lead. ($19.99/Rs 960) |
The light of my life: Ok, so you can't buy diamonds because of the recession, but that hardly means that you can't shine. This solitaire necklace comes with a tiny LED inside a Swarovski crystal. Makes you both feel and look brighter! ($24.99/Rs 1,200) |
For those with broken hearts: No, this is not an error, the necklace indeed does feature a broken image. Wear it if you are in a 'Vazhkaiye Veruthu Poivitadu' (Tamizh for 'I'm fed up with life') mood. ($19.99/Rs 960) |
Punch the critics!: Ok, so you want to buy one of these necklaces, but you are worried that somebody will laugh at you. In that case, maybe you should buy one of the necklaces and also acquire one of these medieval gauntlets. They are made of real steel and come with mirror chrome zinc alloy finish. Wear one of the necklaces featured here and if somebody gives you a disapproving look, punch him in the face with these gauntlets! (Just kidding!) ($59.99/Rs 2,881) |
