M1-Woodward Avenue is a highway notably referred to as Detroit's Main Street and follows the route of the old Saginaw Trail that linked Detroit with Pontiac, and at the time, Flint and Saginaw.
Woodward Avenue was created after a devastating fire in 1805 and is one of five principal avenues in Detroit devised by Augustus B. Woodward as part of a street plan intended to make Detroit the Paris of the West, by emulating it’s wide avenues.
Woodward Avenue was the location of the first mile of concrete roadway in the entire country and in 1970, bore the M1 designation. Woodward Avenue is synonymous with cruising. As early as 1848, carriage drivers would race up and down Woodward Avenue after the roadway was converted from logs to planks.

I received my 42mm M1-Woodward 1805 Edition timepiece that I pre-ordered a few days ago and it was worth the wait! It is an exquisite watch. The detail of the watch dial and hands are outstanding and the 42 mm case is perfectly styled. It is comfortable on my wrist and the red leather band is the perfect final touch. The red leather storage case is also beautiful. We'll done Detroit Watch Company!
