Yachtmaster II

Man, a complication, say it isn’t so Hall and Oates! Rolex doesn’t throw alot of punches, but when they do, it counts. Speaking of counts, so does the little beauty above, counts down those Yacht races 0 to 10 minutes, and can be programmed ahead of time! A calibre 4160 movement, all Rolex, make up this new movement landmark. I have not seen the guts to this timepiece, of course, I am eager. Yes, they finally broke tradition and jumped the 40mm mark on this baby too. Proud, I am, proud. I can’t wait to see more, bravo. CTWG

“The Rhine Runs Slow”

 

As I peered down the Rhine river this year I had different feelings than normal.  I had no Hotel (it went bankrupt and didn’t tell me), no travel accommodations lined up, or access to money for a couple days due to European credit card limbo.  Hmmm,  soak it in, said the watch guy, now we know how our immigrant grandparents felt stepping on American soil for the first time, yes broke and desperate.  So with a sharp tongue and a few contacts later I was a ward of Germany (as close as I could get to Basel) for a couple days.  Ahh travel, be a bum not a tourist.
