M¨¹hle Glash¨¹tte Terranaut III Trail Watch
Over the last few years my level of interest in M¨¹hle Glash¨¹tte watch has increased a fair amount. Their sport offerings are getting more cleverly designed, and this Terranaut III Trail is a slick looking casual sport watch that looks like it borrows a page out of the Bell & Ross playbook. What you essentially have is a simple 40mm wide steel watch with two dial and two case options that seems to work for most activity minded guys.What were the Terranaut I and II watches all about you ask? Well actually the collection complete with versions I, II, and III already exist and you can read more about them here. This new version is the "Terranaut III Trail" and adds a model that looks appropriate to wear while and while not driving a Land Rover through the bush. Like I said the cases are 40mm wide and done in steel. Both dials are available in PVD black steel as well. The cases have AR coated sapphire crystals and are water resistant to 100 meters. Style wise the cases are fine. They do

Improving my photography skills

Incoming/oops...
Since I got back into the habit of reading about watches every day a couple months ago I had been seeing the 5712/1A coming up a lot. Many times it would show up in this-or-that type comparisons or polls. Last Wednesday I stumbled across this gem of a post:.watchprosite/page-wf....2513/s-0/pzt-/I had seen and handled this watch twice; once in the store, liked it, didn't buy it and then once at Patek. As I had been reading about it a lot lately, I was trying to figure out why I didn't buy it the first time I handled it. I couldn't remember the reason why.Originally I had plans to travel south and order a couple straps for my wife's new FP Journe however my wife had noticed I was looking at watches from other brands all morning so instead she suggested we go north to the city. To make sure I went she suggested we go to one of my favorite restaurants for brunch.When we first got into the AD I struck out on the main pieces I was hoping to see which were the Vacheron Quai De L'ile in s

Only one yellow gold
I¡¯m hoping to get some thoughts and opinions on this...My collection is full of stainless steel, titanium, platinum, and white gold. I don¡¯t have a single piece in yellow gold (or rose gold for that matter, although I don¡¯t think rose gold works well with my skin tone). I¡¯ve caught the bug for something in YG. I don¡¯t think I¡¯ll end up having multiple watches in YG though. I¡¯m thinking this would be something to fill a gap in the collection, and for when I want that occasional extra pop of yellow gold. I got very close to pulling the trigger on a 116718LN with the black dial. Right now, that¡¯s my front runner. Although I just inherited a 16753 (two tone GMT on jubilee), so I thought it might be overkill to have both of those. If you were to only have one yellow gold watch, what would it be?I¡¯ll go ahead and rule out a DD, since I have one in platinum, and I just don¡¯t think I want another. And, it doesn¡¯t necessarily have to be Rolex.Thoughts? Advice?
