Cog Gunmetal Cufflinks - New Arrivals

This design takes its inspiration from the world of engineering. The ubiquitous and ingenious cog wheel invented by Archimedes. Where would we be without it? This design has a 'whale-tail' backing which is similar in form to a solid, fixed toggle except the rear part of the finding swivels to lie flat against the shaft for easy insertion through the cuff. A must have for those who appreciate the beauty and elegance of engineering applied to movement. Approximately 1/2 " diameter, Rhodium plated base metal, Whale back closure,

He said, however, that Rolls was still committed to UltraFan, a major new fuel-efficient architecture that will power wide-body jets towards the back end of the next decade. CFM International — a joint venture between GE and France’s Safran — as well as Pratt & Whitney are also potential suppliers for the new Boeing jet. Pratt & Whitney recently re-entered the civil market for narrow-body jets and wants to expand to larger ones, but has been hit by industrial problems. In the nearer term, Rolls is still dealing with the costs and disruption of fixing Trent 1000 engines caused by the poor durability of components.

“On this issue we have indeed turned the corner,” East said, although he added that the level of customer disruption was still unacceptable, It raised the Trent 1000 charge to 790 million pounds from 554 million pounds at the half year, contributing to a full-year cog gunmetal cufflinks operating loss of 1.16 billion pounds ($1.54 billion), and allocated another 100 million pounds in cash to the problem, The issue has damaged Rolls’ standing with its big customers, British Airways owner IAG said on Thursday it would order 18 Boeing 777-9s, rather than a competing package from Airbus that industry sources said included the A350, which is powered by Rolls..

“I have been frustrated, largely with the performance of Rolls-Royce, not so much with Airbus,” IAG Chief Executive Willie Walsh said. East, however, said Rolls had an excellent relationship with BA and put the choice down to IAG’s fleet requirements. “I am totally confident we will be continuing to be a major partner with BA for many, many years into the future,” he said. East said that aside from Trent 1000, the rest of the business was performing well, although the large engine deliveries of 480 fell short of its 500 target, in part due to the challenge of stepping up Trent 7000 production.

MOSCOW (Reuters) - A Russian court on Thursday ruled that prominent U.S, investor Michael Calvey should remain in custody pending trial, rejecting his appeal to be released on bail or moved to house arrest, Calvey, a founder of cog gunmetal cufflinks Baring Vostok Capital Partners, was detained earlier this month along with three other executives from his private equity group after investigators accused them of stealing 2.5 billion roubles ($38.09 million), He denies the allegations, which he says are intended to pressure him in a business dispute over a Russian bank where he is a board member..

LONDON (Reuters) - Inmarsat shares spiked on Thursday afternoon after a report by CTFN M&A news website said U.S. satellite group EchoStar was expected to renew its interest in the company “very soon”, and no later than the next six months. Shares in the British satellite communications company jumped as much as 9.8 percent before falling back to trade up 6 percent by 1530 GMT.

(Reuters) - Sunrise Communications’ $6.3 billion deal to buy U.S, cable giant Liberty Global’s Swiss assets, announced on Thursday, immediately hit a snag as a key shareholder said it would shun a planned rights issue to finance the acquisition, Sunrise said earlier on Thursday that it had agreed to buy UPC Switzerland from John Malone’s Liberty Global and that it would finance the transaction with a $4.1 billion rights issue, The acquisition will bolster Sunrise’s position against Switzerland’s dominant mobile and internet provider Swisscom and comes as Malone is cashing out of some of his European cog gunmetal cufflinks investments..

In a potential obstacle, however, Freenet, which owns a nearly 25 percent stake in Sunrise, said it would not participate in the rights issue, arguing that it saddles existing investors with all the risk. Sunrise shares fell as much as 13 percent after the deal was announced as analysts predicted Freenet may not have the appetite for the rights issue and were down 10.3 percent by 1345 GMT. Sunrise said it will pay Liberty Global around 2.7 billion Swiss francs in cash and assume 3.6 billion francs of UPC’s debt.

Jefferies analyst Ulrich Rathe, who called the valuation cog gunmetal cufflinks of the deal “rational” given its potential synergies, said Freenet’s opposition might not be a dealbreaker, Shareholder approval was “not a foregone conclusion” given Freenet’s stance, However, with only a simple majority of votes needed at an extraordinary shareholder meeting, opposition by Freenet may not be insurmountable, Rathe said, Freenet, a German telecommunications and web content provider, concluded that Malone was getting too good a deal..
