Guer Man Trace Watch Is Wild And Woodsy
A watch like this upcoming Guer Man Trace is easy to make fun of. I mean it is pretty interesting look, and I see all of the artistic merit - I am sure I would even wear one. But instead of us feeling all wowed by its novelty, we are going to be compelled to laugh about it. It does come in a log watch box after all. This little concept brings me back to the early 1990s when one of my favorite cartoons of all time was on, Ren & Stimpy. Of the most iconic elements of the adultish cartoon show was their in-show advertisements of absurd hypothetical products. Do you remember "Log." The piece of wonder wood could do it all. It's Logit is big, it is heavy, it is wood. Log for boys and girls, it is better than bad, it is good. These are some lines from the jingle, can you hear me saying it out loud in a satirical serious manner as I am sure the Guer Man marketing people might. Hear it via YouTube below. The actual commercial is not on there due to copyright reasons I am sure. So what was

Chronomat on its way out
I hear the former flagship watch, the Chronomat is being discontinued along with possibly the Super Avenger. They are pushing the in house movements which is fine but the new watch designs are pretty ugly in my opinion. I have no idea what Breitling are doing anymore.

AT reference number help?
Can someone provide the reference for the AT 41.5mm 8500 with brushed bracelet? I'm not a fan of the PCLs on the newer version bracelet.Also, is the version I am asking about still available at ADs?

New Member & Incoming
Greetings all from chilly Toronto! I'm a new member here but owned a 116710LN for 7 years before parting with it. After a couple year hiatus I've re-ignited my passion for Rolex. A Sunday trip to my nearest AD (suburban Toronto ) to ask about getting my wife's engagement ring reset led to a discussion about Rolex and my new AD friend asking to me to wait here for a minute...I have something to show you. He came back with this:blnr2.jpgNeedless to say I fell in love immediately and brought it home. I'm on day 3 with it and am really appreciating the familiar feeling of my departed GMT but with a totally fresh color scheme.I never joined (or frankly knew of) TRF when I was a first time owner. Glad to have found this community now!

winding backwards
Hi - i read on another forum that you should not wind your watch backwards to set the time. I did this on both my Black Bays when British Summertime ended. They don't even have a date wheel - so is this a problem??ThanksGlenn
