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.

Trying to catch the light-play on the dial.

Taken right before I got stuck in an all-day meeting today. Image

Tap. Talk. Buy another watch. Repeat.

Sounds awful. As a consultant I was always the one who had to prepare how the meeting went and what was accomplished, so it took a week and then everyone else just walks in like it’s a day off and is bored all day while I’m stressed out. I hate those days.

Got my special edition Monster thanks the the MoT crew.

My only negative is this awful pin and collar design. I’ve seen a lot of cheap Seiko bracelets, but just pushing a collar down on one end without a definitive resistance is hokey and not reassuring at all. I don’t have a microscope to see inside the link to know the collar is all the way down, but I can’t feel a ledge pushing in the hole with my tool, so I guess (hope) it’s secure.

Anyway, beautiful watch and gained 3 seconds over 20 hours, so it’ll probably end up around +1-2 per day which, nobody can really ask for better. I’m happy, and the dial is beautiful as are many Seiko dials.

Thanks MoT squad for your deals!
