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.

I decided to do something a bit for my AliExpress 11.11 Sale video.
I thought I'd focus on watches that I own and recommend, that I don't think get enough attention.

This one is certainly cheap in the 11.11 sale. It’s very cheap for a PT5000 watch.

Like you, I think the logo is mediocre. I’m not really one for sterile dials, so I’d have to factor in a new dial into the price. The lack of AR coating is a negative too.

I’m pretty sure this Tandorio is just an unbranded Heimdallr case. The case back and flat spot on the case where the crown sits is a giveaway. Same with the Bliger that have also popped up on AliExpress and eBay recently.

If they made the bronze version with a sapphire I’d consider it. They all seem to be a bronze with mineral configuration, unfortunately.

Yeah it's the cheapest watch I've seen with a PT5000 movement in. Some AR coating would definitely have been appreciated.

They did a good job on it didn't they? Especially considering its their first attempt as well.
