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.

5711 sitting for almost two weeks
Just an observation, went to Tysons 2 Mall in VA in middle of January and saw PP 5177 in white dial sitting on the shelf and last night I saw it again.

Basel 2018 Timeline Refresher
So Basel starts Thursday 3/22 (although there may be a press day on Wed 3/21 at nights?).That's roughly 34 days from now.With a lot of companies, we will begin to see Pre-Basel introductions of new models.With Rolex, not so much.Maybe a few cryptic teasers.When will the information be available to the public?Will Rolex update its site first on 3/22 or will people who visit Basel have to post on our forum to let us know what models are new (even if they post pics weeks later)?
