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.

My new Orient RA-AA0813R19B. I'm calling it my Kamasu Rootbeer!

First post here. Great place you have. Recommended from a friend.

I found one in stock from a dealer in Italy. Ordered on the 3rd and arrived this afternoon. This is gorgeous in the sun. I've ordered a Nomad Burgundy band for it. I received watch #1108 of #2000.

Wouldn't that colorway be more of a sarsparilla?

Either way, congrats.
Nice pick up.

It was a birthday gift. Not a watch I had my eye on but my wife picked it out and it’s a stunner in person!

Not perfect, might/should have a service, but got it cheap enough to not worry about the servicing costs.
I'll post more when it arrives next week.
Arrived back from service.

Took a gamble on a "for parts or restore" Titan Edge.

Running fine. Didn't even need a new battery, just a different strap.
Though I'll need to find one that's thinner.

Picked this diver up last week. Most than impressed. It was new in box and I couldn't pass it up. Found an authentic Promaster rubber band for it too.
