When I see or hear the term Stress-Free, a relaxing and soothing day at a seaside Ashram or spa easily comes to mind, complete with sessions of Yoga and Tai Chi followed by hours in the sauna and whirlpool… and topped off with a relaxing deep-tissue message.

It’s not surprising that Switzerland is the leader in premium crafted wristwatches, since many of the world’s leading watchmakers are headquartered in Switzerland, where the art of watchmaking has become a centuries-old tradition since the 1800’s when the nation gained worldwide supremacy in the production of…
