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.

Dub, I'll bet you were still wearing watches though. [emoji3]
Wish you a speedy recovery, and I don't mean the speedy on your wrist.
Get well soon!

[emoji23] My awesome wife brought me a watch unasked when she first visited. She even picked the Nereus because it had an elastic Mankey strap she thought would be easier to take on and off. Used the bezel to time when morphine time was.
Feeling much better and thanks for all the well wishes [emoji106]
Alright Legion. I talked to Glenn, and it seems like we can't have the red colored seconds hand on the logo. Well, here is his whole response.
"For the 62MAS order, I just checked it with our team, here are something I want to make clear:
1. Sorry we don't have orange paint, is red color ok for you?
2. The hour, minute, second hands inside the logo, they are too close and too thin, we need to have more space between them, also make them thicker, and they are too tiny for printing in 2 colors, because to print 2 colors, we will need to print it twice, and we need to handle the printing position very precisely, but since these hands are too thin, we'd better print them at one time, in one same color, please see whether that's ok with you and if so, which color do you like, white or red, thanks!
3. May I know what's the order quantity now?
4. Please let me know which dial color do you like to have, and do you like them on stainless steel bracelet or rubber strap, thanks!"
So just a couple final decisions and then I will start a new thread announcing the watch run and see how many people we Can get to commit.

As for the watch, I'd prefer blue dial and bezel, but I will defer to the consensus if we can't pick and choose what color dial. Bracelet will be a for sure for me.

It's not clear from Glenn's response - do they need the small parts of the logo to be thicker even if we print one color, or is it good to go as one color?

After reading it several times, I *think it means we are good to go for one color on the logo. We will still get red for the "Man On Time" part though. I think we should be able to do a mix of both blue and gun metal, but I will reach out and confirm.
Also, the bracelet seems to be $20 more than the strap. You can always buy straps, but can't easily or cheaply replace that stock bracelet. Seems most were in favor of that option anyways, so I say we go bracelet, but am open to any objections.
Lastly, @Sussa, can you do me a favor and pshop the all white logo on these more current pics? Thanks in advance. I want to have a final design before I start a seperate thread to gauge interest/commitment levels and try to get that info to Glenn.
Here you go, [mention]Dub Rubb[/mention]. I also changed the "ManOnTime" text to be a truer red because, if I'm understanding correctly, we cannot choose a Pantone color to make it orange-ish red. If I'm wrong, happy to adjust.
