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.

PREORDER: Brand Direct: Imperial Watch Co - Royalguard 200 **LAUNCHING Oct. 25 @ 2pm ET**

Post by TheJohnP »

This one has gotten a fair amount of discussion in the MoT Discord.
Partly for the fact this is a 99% copy homage of a vintage Eberhard & Co model.

Either way, preorders for this model will open on Tuesday, October 25 at 11:00 AM PT / 2:00 PM ET

Preorder price is $350
Regular price will be $450

Additionally, the first 25 buyers will receive a free custom leather strap featuring the Imperial logo.

With a heavy nod to the vintage skin divers of the 1950s [MOSTLY THAT EBERHARD & CO - John P], designed to be sleek, elegant, and more wearable timepieces for the gentleman diver; combined with the precision, quality, and attitude of the modern-day dive watch, the Royalguard 200 aims to bring back that stylish and timeless look while adding modern-day functionality.

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

Being someone who doesn't mind homages, I absolutely love this.
