Slow Going: A Few Days Away From aBlogtoRead.com For The Holiday
The image pictured represents two things. First, the type of traffic environment I will be facing in Los Angeles, and second, that the next few days are going to be slow on aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer. I will be out of town, and thus pretty busy until December 2nd when I return.Its possible I might get to post one or two of the days I am gone, but I like to let you know when I might not be around. There are a few interesting watch reviews coming up that should be good reads, so some of the time spent away will be with the new acquisitions. LTake care, and happy Thanksgiving watch lovers!

Decisions decisions...
Recently I posted an inquiry about choosing between a new style rose gold rubber clad and a the rose gold 44mm offshore. Well, since I couldn't decide based on pics I picked up the 44 and figured having the two would make my decision easier...not exactly!! Now I have these two beautiful pieces each with their own charm but I have to let one go!! Agh!! I'm torn between the refinement of the 44 and the classic look of the rubber clad...this is going to be interesting! Anyway, thought I'd post some pics (I had the boutique mount the rubber clad on a Don Ramon hornback to dress it up a bit). Let me know what you all think! -Carlos

Random Thoughts on New Releases
Agree or disagree, whatever. 1. Basel prediction threads are worthless. 2. My AD said... threads are worthless.3. If you buy a PM Rolex you are now on absolute notice that Rolex will think nothing of killing the market for your watch by releasing a SS version. I think this is a great slap in the face to their highest end customers. Spare me the BS about you knowing its PM, about the subtle differences, about rarity vs. the weird new blue dial PM GMT, etc. Your watch is going to go down in price. No respect for the consumer. None.4. The Black/Brown GMT is awful. Maybe it will look better in person, shall see. Some people have an eye for those colors, not me. Can't wait for the nickname fans to have a go at that one. 5. The SS Blue/Red GMT on Jubilee is super nice. It just pisses me off that I can't go buy one in three months because of the anticipated and intentionally created scarcity. That really pisses me off. There too, we shall see. 6. The new movement! The new movement! Come on pe
