On Sunday, March 12th, we changed our clocks ahead one hour, which means that Daylight Savings Time started and Standard Time has ended. However, the change shouldn’t stop there. The Chase Frederick project, suggests that you should also take this opportunity to NOT only change the time, but your watch too.

Aiming to challenge the paradigm of thinking that an automatic watch is only for the men’s club, the Chase Frederick project, (https://www.chasefrederick.com) is on a mission to change this perception. The luxury time-piece company is hitting the luxury fashion accessories market hard with breathtakingly designed slim, self-winding automatic watches for women. Within an industry where automatic watches are primarily bulk and well suited for men, Chase Frederick hopes to debut multiple designs, with the help of crowdfunding, that reflect vintage aesthetics with a modern, yet romantic appeal. Chase Frederick is headquartered in Indianapolis and run by husband and wife co-founders Angie and Jeremy Zimmerman, who saw a missing product within the women’s watch market. The Chase Frederick Kickstarter will run for duration of 30 days and will assist the company in launching seven different automatic watch designs with a general retail price of under $300. The company has set an overall crowdfunding goal of $20K.
Angie and Jeremy Zimmerman will be able to discuss the following The levels for the campaign and contributor gifts include:
• Contribute $30 or more for a free bracelet (Below)
• $200 Super Early Bird Contributor special for choice of one watch with stainless steel band: Pink dial, Serenity blue dial, or Silver dial. Includes $30 bracelet for free. (Limited to 100 contributors)
• $225 Super Early Bird Contributor special for choice of one watch with premium stainless steel band: Two toned gold, two-tone Rose gold or titanium. Includes $30bracelet for free. (Limited to 100 contributors)

• $250 for choice of one watch with premium stainless steel band: Two- tone gold, Two – tone rose gold, or Titanium. Includes $30 bracelet for free.
• $1250 Sorority/Wedding Pack: Any choice of any six watches. Includes 6 bracelets, with a $30 value each.

“The trend has shifted towards larger watch dials, and this is because many watch brands spend so much time focusing on men and not women,” says Jeremy Zimmerman. “We chose to do something very few other brands do in the watch industry; we chose to focus on creating a truly feminine piece. A timepiece is a fashion statement which should complement your wardrobe, and we felt this bold statement for women should be elegant, and feminine, something women would be proud to wear.”
A self-winding automatic reflects a more classic style with a visual impact. Chase Frederick takes much pride in their first product, a 24mm Automatic Timepiece designed and manufactured with only the finest materials and quality craftsmanship. Every part of the timepiece is the brand’s original design while working closely with manufacturers to flesh out complete engineering specifications, identifying quality materials, processes and techniques that best fit the overall vision of creating an elegant and truly feminine piece.

The International Association of Fire Chiefs and Energizer

Daylight saving time ends Sunday, November 3rd, and marks the 26th year of the Change Your Clock Change Your Battery® program, created by Energizer and the International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC), which reminds people to check, change and test the batteries in their smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors during the fall time change. This message is simple and the habit can be lifesaving. Overall, almost 66 percent of home fire deaths in the U.S. occur in homes without working smoke alarms.

This fall, remember to check and change the batteries in your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors, create, plan and practice a home escape plan and remind all of your friends and family to do the same!

Below are some simple home fire safety tips:

• Practice smoke alarm maintenance for a simple, effective way to reduce home fire deaths.
• A simple reminder from Energizer and the International Association of Fire Chiefs: when you change your clocks, check and change the batteries in your smoke alarms. This can help save lives.
• Test your smoke alarms monthly to make sure they are working.
• Have at least one working smoke alarm on each level of your home.
• Plan, discuss and practice a home escape route with your family in case of a fire.
• Do not rely on your sense of smell to alert you to the danger of being trapped during a fire.
• Do not ignore the chirping sound your smoke alarm makes when maintenance is required.
• Keep fire-starting materials away from children, including lighters, matches, cigarettes, cigars and pipes.
• Use flashlights rather than candles to light your home during power outages.
• Portable space heaters need a three-foot clearance from anything that can burn and should be turned off when leaving your room or home. Carbon monoxide is sometimes called the “the silent killer.” It is colorless, odorless and tasteless.
