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.

This arrived today. Wearing it on a NATO until I resize the bracelet. Very happy to own one finally. This picture is not doing it justice haha

Well, [mention]ManOnTime[/mention] got me switch up watches. This was a pleasant surprise in my mailbox. On loan to see if I like it. I've had it on for all of 15 minutes and definitely love it. I put a Manky Apollo strap because why not. Extremely well executed and the size doesn't bother me at all. Chrono is mesmerizing. Looks like this one is on the list.

Re: WRUW
Bonus pic. There's a watch guy at work. I've seen him wear an SKX, Ironman, Eco-Drives and I occasionally ask him about his watches and vice versa. Today he was wearing his high school graduation gift.....a brand that's been on my list. A two-tone Ebel......pretty retro and very cool. I like how their modern stuff retains some of this look too.

Re: WRUW
Appreciate it!
I particularly enjoyed how [mention]Dub Rubb[/mention], mid-recommendation, convinced himself that he needed the Poljot Okean. A beautiful watch by the way, despite what his wife says. Also, I think I'm going to try the Mondia chronograph one of these days.
Living a comeback montage.

Big fan of Barton silicone, I think they are pretty versatile

Re: WRUW
They are, and even more so once broken in. The oldest one I have is around 2yrs with no visible breakdown, so I am not sure how to gauge it's life span.Stretch44 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 19, 2020 10:06 pmAre they pretty flexible?

Barton has also made it really easy for you to give them money as they have many styles with basically any width you want, and five buckle colors to choose from.
The 2nd keeper also has a notch so it stays in place at the end of the tail.
Easy 5 star product.

Re: WRUW
That orange would also probably look pretty good on the PVD version, just sayin'Stretch44 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 19, 2020 8:10 pm Well, @ManOnTime got me switch up watches.
