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.

$272 TechnoMarine 7750 chronograph arrived. Movement is decorated, so not even the lowest grade.

NAD, how do you get “Sold as a special offer” on eBay while the item does not accept offers?
Do you email the seller to negotiate price?

The Ball Black Rock is my grail, and $1360 is about as cheap as I have seen it ever. I know absolutely nothing about World Of Watches. They say they offer 30 day returns so I guess if they sent a dud at least I'm covered for that. Timepiece.com has it for the exact same price, so I'm assuming they are the same company doing business on different websites?

World of Watches and Timepiece are both alternative sites for Jomashop. Same company. The only difference is that Jomashop usually has better discount codes. In this case try GOOGLE50.

Yes, I think that is what it means. If you send a message to the seller, they can reply with an offer even if the listing itself does not have offers enabled. Just don't lowball them. Nobody likes lowballers.

Just a quick update on my CPO Hamilton Dodson.

I reached out to Ashford last Tuesday regarding the condition of the watch. That is to say... it doesn't run. They never answered my email sent to their official customer service email. Reached out again 3 days later. Still no answer today.

So I said *#&# it and disputed the claim with my credit card. 20 minutes later and I have my refund.

It's a shame. I really like Ashford for what they are. I had no problems with the brand new Certina I bought there. But why the hell can't they check their emails?

In either case, maybe they'll finally respond now that the credit card company is disputing it. If they never respond and I get to keep the watch (can't return it if I never hear back, right?), maybe I'll use the money to repair it and enjoy it. But right now it's a $205 paperweight.

I had a bear of a time trying to return a watch to Ashford when they sent me the smaller ladies version of the watch I ordered.
Had to call and talk to two different people before they finally started working with me about it.

Keep an eye on other sites. These have been down to about $1200 recently. Very cool watches, but they don't seem to be selling.

Edit: I definitely overstated this. This is not a site-wide code but there are some good deals on select models. See the CWS posts that follow.

A crazy good deal from Certified Watch Store. Get ready for a new watch. I tried this EGDVDAY code on the Hamilton Jazzmaster and it took $100 off, so $270. Not bad. Remember to choose 2 day air shipping.

That's weird. I'm at work so I can't investigate much but it's working on my phone. 3 for 3 so far.

Worked for me. Pan Europ for $552

EDIT: Might just be certain brands? Tried it on an FC and it didn't work.
I wish that watch were 38mm?
