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.

SUCCESSFUL: Kickstarter: Ferro & Company - 356 watch

Post by TheJohnP »

This isn't the first auto inspired watch, but it's the latest to launch on Kickstarter.

Ferro & Company have a few releases under their belt, so don't foresee any issues for anyone who wants to back this project.
Their new 356 watch is inspired by the Porsche 356

Early bird pricing for the ETA 6498 handwound watches is $600, retail will be $900.
Decent savings.

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
