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.

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

They look great, a nice cohesive design BUT...

It looks like the dial producer only put a single notch to apply on the 12-marker to the dial as multiple variants pictured have misaligned markers.

Me too. The lume is very cool.
I wish that watch were 38mm?

The twelve-hour bezel looks great. The lume pipe can be in any position without concern since that bezel likely relies on friction rather than a clicker, I'm guessing.

I need another watch like I need a hole in my head but I may bite, since they're in Washington State.
Just my $0.02 USD as always.
