Maurice de Mauriac Summer 2011 Chronograph Modern Watches
Here is a little watch porn for you in the form of two new Maurice de Mauriac Chronograph Modern watch styles. I have covered the Chronograph Modern watches before but Maurice de Mauriac keeps coming out with upgrades and new styles. The first one here is a version of the Le Mans 53 in black with a case fitted alligator strap - really slick. Next is a stealthier version of the Chronograph Modern with a blue chronograph seconds hand and a cool new woven leather strap - much as was done by Bedat & Co.The Chronograph Modern models come in a variety of styles and sizes that are 39, 42, or 45mm wide. Part of the point of getting a Maurice de Mauriac watch is the customization involved and, ideally, you visit them in Z??rich to do so. Prices for these models are 3,650 Swiss Francs for the Le Mans version and 3,950 Swiss Francs for the version with the woven leather strap.

Over Sized, Over-BLANK... Overkill!
This article should benefit your perception of media and advertising. Today I take issue with use of terms such as "over sized, over stuffed, over...anything." They make me angry! And I'd like you to feel the same way anytime you see or hear them.I recall a few years ago looking to purchase a new comforter for my bed. I kept seeing the same thing time after time, "over stuffed" with goose down. I had no idea what this meant.

Oh for shame, rebellious maker of over stuffed goods. Whatever will the consumer think with their bedding on the verge of explosion?

My collection of 4 - but...
Hi All, TRF has become my daily newspaper, and I thank you all for the passion and insights shared. Owned 20+ pieces in the last 3 years, consolidated down to PP and as follows: 5205 / 5726 / 5712 / 5167 I am not loving the Aquanaut, I do have an opportunity to trade that plus the 5712 and cash for a blue 5960, that would leave the collection down to 3. I am not looking to add many more, but to settle on a well balanced 3 or 4 within the PP stable. So I open this up to all of you for some pearls of wisdom!Warmest regards and wishes,
