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.

Re: Incoming! What have you got in the mail?

I've spent the last few weeks travelling with the aptly-named Reise Resolute on my wrist. ("Reise" means "travel" or "journey" in German.) This was the first Kickstarter from what is now RZE watches. The Resolute is a titanium tool/field watch. Mine is the teal version....

Re: 2021 New and Upcoming Releases!

Yep that is a cracking watch but priced too high for a punt imo.

USD 200 lower and I probably would have gone for it.

Blue or white are the winners for me.

Re: Show Off Your New Watch

Just received this Mido Ocean Star GMT, a true traveler's GMT which allows you to directly set the standard time's hour hand. 8-) I haven't even removed the stickers yet so sharing pics from another source. https://www.watchdavid.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Mido-Ocean-Star-GMT-black-orange-02-19...

Re: 2021 New and Upcoming Releases!

I see an increasing number of new releases incorporating colors and modern design cues that are more likely to appeal to a more youthful audience (when it comes to strapping a watch to your wrist youth is a condition of the mind) than your more typical staid WIS crowd. Whoops! With consideration to...

Re: Quick Look: FANOS Osimiri

Thanks for this - very glad this got funded. Anyone else here a backer? Re. Influencer damage, how frustrating, especially when it impacts subsequent reviews. I don't know enough about the practice, but is there any accountability for damage caused whilst the watch is in their possession? Or any cos...

Re: Complaint of the Day

Complaint(s)of the day: import duty and VAT being charged on a second-hand item. OK, fine, maybe. But then duties and VAT calculated and charged not just on the value of the item, but also the shipping cost and insurance cost (bought and taxed in another country) as well. Oh, and then the additional...

Re: PREORDER: Kickstarter: Fanos Watches - Osimiri 500m Titanium Dive Watch

Hmm. Funding seems to have stalled somewhat. [mention]FANOS Watches[/mention]: have you considered asking the previous reviewers to let their followers know the kickstarter is now available? Two video reviews of the prototype are from last year and the third from January. The watch may have fallen o...

Re: Incoming! What have you got in the mail?

Been looking for one of these for a while - Cincinatti P-40M Limited Edition Blue. With international shipping, it ended up being rather pricey compared to RRP, but hey - it's a discontinued watch and I've had watchrecon / watch patrol alerts for months with no hits, so decided to go for it. https:...
