As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

Miles Ahead

Post by The Sultan of SoWhat »

Since I have little ability to identify watches that are not on my wrist, I wonder if anybody here can offer an opinion about the watch that Miles Davis is wearing in this picture.

(Note: I won't ask about the shoes.)

My totally uneducated guess is a JLC Reverso or a Bulova Senator or Academy.

Could it be an Oris?

All I could find is this article that discusses some of his other watches.

Far and wide I will find 'em and I ride 'em
Bricks and mortar get my licks just for kicks
AD or authorized I don't analyze
Retail, wholesale never fail
Online or offline, I find I don't redefine
Too big to fail or yard sale they all hale
Run or hide just for fun deals I find
