Detroit Watch Company M1 Chronograph Watch
 As I mentioned in my prior Detroit Watch Company review, I have a soft spot for items coming out of my former hometown. While that first watch dove pretty deeply into the history of Detroit for a connection, their latest has something most current (and former) residents of the area should be familiar with. No, it's not the giant tire along I-94 - it's good ol' Woodward Avenue. From that street, we have the Detroit Watch Company M1 Chronograph.Of course, tying a watch to a road is a tricky proposition. Realistically, it's a clever way to name a new model: just focus in on a prominent landmark, and then go from there. Of course, we have the M1 "road sign" showing up on the case back, as well as the list of cities that the road passes through. As to the watch itself, there is a connection I see in the selection of a chronograph.For those unfamiliar with Woodward Avenue, it is one of the major roads to go cruising on (you can check out more history here). If you read into the history

Should we call Corum the manufacture with five roofs?
Though the definition is often stretched and the term is bandied about tirelessly in marketing, we tend to think of a manufacture as a watch company that makes its watches under one roof. Should we call Corum the manufacture with five roofs? I, for one, prefer their own metaphor of the hand.

INCOMING - something blue
Hello All- So I’ve developed a small bad habit. I evidently love to trade in pursuit of the perfect watch. I own other Rolex watches but have been trading back and forth with DavidSW. I ended up trading my Rolex Datejust TT on Jubilee bracelet (116233) silver dial for a SS/WG Rolex Datejust on oyster bracelet (116234) blue dial. I have to say that I love dials with color on them, and I also wear a ton of blue. This being the case, I am very excited to have it. I also love the WG bezel too. Pics below!
