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.

Baltany has some nice-looking watches. Unfortunately, for me at least, they all seem to be 36mm wide.
Perhaps this one might be of interest to you then.

I've just received my Sugess S419 Chronograph, that I ordered during the 11.11 sale. I'm really impressed. This could be one of my favourites already.

Reef Tiger **** Time Homage.

Here's the link to the watch, strap and my reviews. It's an older review for the watch, so forgive the quality.

Here's a more recent video showing the watch, asking with others I took away with me on my holiday.

Surprised it took this long for me to see a MoonSwatch knock off from AE.

Maybe I've just missed them.

I've not seen that one, or heard of that brand before either. I'd personally rather go for this though.

Of course, just surprised it took so long to get to a plastic version.

They also have been on sale since this summer on the Bay for about $40. Search for ‘large dial planet’.

Yup, I received a couple of knockoffs. The cases are some sort of coated metal, and apart from the incorrect movement function, somehow crappier strap, and amateurish printed box, they are way heavier than the authentic MoonSwatch I have.
