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.

For this project, I would like to launch my very first watch that I had been inspired by Frank Muller. I had incorporated some of my idea into this design as not many people is suitable to wear a squared-design watch. All the detail of this watch was based on my many years of experience to come out with a high quality watch but with a affordable pricing.

The VorTex is available either in black or white.

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

I think if the numbers had been made a little smaller I would have went for one. Just feels too crowded.
