CJ Wilson, MLB Pitcher for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, has joined Graham as an Ambassador. He is also the owner of CJ Wilson Racing. This is perhaps a move by Graham to better infiltrate the US Market.

GRAHAM welcomes CJ Wilson

A native of Southern California, CJ Wilson, proud Graham Ambassador and Major League Baseball pitcher, brings a new edge to the Graham family. CJ is the first professional baseball player to be signed as a brand Ambassador for Graham, strengthening the brand’s presence in worldwide sports culture. CJ is also the owner of CJ Wilson Racing, which continues the long motorsports heritage of the Graham brand. The motorsports and racing legacy is a defining feature that drew CJ to the brand initially. “I really like that Graham has connections to motorsports. For me, that sends the message that they’re serious about precision and performance, not just style,” says Wilson, now in his 7th year as a Major Leaguer.

CJ has enjoyed great success in his young career, both on the baseball diamond and on the racetrack through CJ Wilson Racing, the latter of which won the 2011 Road Atlanta race in the SCCA Pro Racing MX-5 Cup on September 30th, 2011. But off the field, Wilson has become a pillar in the community for not only his dominance on the field, but it his charitable endeavors through CJ Wilson Childrens Charities, a Dallas-based organization that supports children with chronic and terminal illnesses nationwide. The Charity teams up with childrens hospitals to inspire comfort and hope by helping to believe some of the stresses associated with long-term hospital stays.

Wilson wears owns several GRAHAM watches and particularly loves the Chronofigher Oversize Diver and Silverstone Stowe Classic models. GRAHAM watches are almost emblematic of CJ’s drive for the perfect balance between performance and style on the field and into his daily life. “The Graham brand is bold- and for me standing out is important. I feel boldness- when combined with style- really sets more personality into each design element.”

On my computer, I have a photo temporary folder where I store my photos initially after downloading them from my camera. Its like an “unsorted” temporary folder before I have decided what to do with my pics. Because I am busy (or lazy, can’t always tell which), photos often sit there for months. Looking through my temp folder now, I see lots of wrist shots, and figured I would throw them up on here for kicks. Seeing lots of wrist shots in a row is kind of a cool thing, so Here it is!

This is a little crazy looking for me, but hey, I’m sure there are many folks out there willing to shell out $ 16,500USD (15,000CHF) for an iridescent watch. Nothing like taking what is already a pretty funky looking watch, and making it funkier!

From Graham:
The multitude of colours is hypnotic. The iridescence of the Swordfish Booster Iris, similar to the most beautiful natural wonders, is eye-catching. Do you know what Iris means in Latin?

Rainbow.

This rainbow effect is not due to pigment but interferences of light. It means that light waves interfere with one another on a surface refracting parts of the spectrum which create the iridescent colors. You have probably already seen it in a soap bubble or in an oil stain on a wet pavement but it results from a high-technological process.

The change of colours is also due to the extremely complex composition of the layers’ oxide. The steel case and components have been placed in big vacuums producing plasma reaction.

This unique coating contains multi-layered structures that provide thin-film interference. The thickness across the surface causes changes of colours in reflected light. Iridescence adds a new dimension to “surface”.

Question by Rachel Zertuche

Does anyone know the location where Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone. Thank you for any info given.

Best answer:

Answer by W
Antonio Meucci was the true inventor of the telephone. He had a caveat on the invention, but couldn’t afford the $ 10 to maintain it. In fact, congress recognized these FACTS in 2002 by saying:

“If Meucci had been able to pay the $ 10 fee to maintain the caveat after 1874, no patent could have been issued to Bell.”

The resolution’s sponsor described it as “a message that rings loud and clear recognizing the true inventor of the telephone, Antonio Meucci”.

ADD:

Actually, Fred, you’re a decade off. Bell first started experimenting in 1873. And he didn’t have success until 1876, in Ontario. So you failed to answer the original question correctly.

As for Meucci (to those who gave me thumbs down!) if you don’t believe me, then you should read more about what actually happened. Here’s a good link that provides a basic summary of it:

http://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&q=cache:a07dTYcpPl8J:gram.eng.uci.edu/~ayanoglu/aicc/Meucci.ppt+Antonio+Meucci&hl=en&gl=us&pid=bl&srcid=ADGEESjB4sG2UIzV0S9OyPGw_UuUxiSfpcKJrzFlcIxV8IiUmtVOClq9gijgEF90kS1WTfkCmWH6tDHcoRoAMr1Ttsj3F2xAcbU-iKNSYkWopHWenR5qWvl5N-fZTaNEGNpah4Kk9RKk&sig=AHIEtbTGcJETIXK_4PZSf-EIFJol1qVFlQ

Learn the facts, and then make a judgement.

ADD:

It’s not rewriting history! It’s showing what REALLY happened! They’re simply recognizing the FACTS! Accepting one story as the truth without learning the whole story, is rewriting history.

Silly Canadians, trying to cover up the truth so they can say the telephone was invented in their country!

ADD:

No, it has nothing to do with that!! Meucci was Italian and did a large portion of his experimenting in Italy. Anyone who knows me knows I am definitely not the “all-American” type. I could care less about trying to attribute an invention to America.

And it has nothing to do with what CONGRESS said, it’s just nice congress finally recognized something MANY OF US have known for years.

Now I won’t deny that Bell invented the telephone, in his own right. I’m not even saying he stole the idea from Meucci. BUT, Meucci DID invent it FIRST. If you read about it, you can see there were a number of reasons why he isn’t credited, but the bottom line is, he got screwed.
