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. Is there some governing body of "Sizes and Stuffing Standards" that dictates how much things ought to be stuffed or sized? Where these pioneering comforter makers ruthlessly defying such standards by putting just a bit too much in the offending comforter? Resulting in the dreadful "overstuffed" label?

Hands-On: With the Monoposto, Autodromo's First Mechanical Watch (Live Pics)

You can tell a lot of thought has gone into the details here. 2 OF 23 The Autodromo Monoposto, Black Dial The dial is bright, clean, and easy to read, but the first thing you'll probably notice is the bright red line between 9 and 10 o'clock.

GMT II with 3186 vs 3185
Hi Quick questions came to mind as I was reading another post regarding the New High of the 3186. I don't get it, but it is what it is.https://.rolexforums/showthread.php?t=5906191. Do the Rolex movements have serial numbers/codes/markings on them?2.

Which wrist?
I see a lot of folks wearing a watch on the right wrist. Always thought left was considered the traditional way of wearing a timepiece.
