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.

1. That’s awesome!
2. I almost suggested that you try it on a diver recently...sorta like a hint :D.
3. It is not even remotely considered stolen because you are still the man and have had a lot of stuff going on. When people vanish...that’s a different story :(.

I wore my dad’s watch today as I try to do regularly. Watches that belonged to family members are always compliant in my book, but just to be safe here is an Old Fashioned 8-). What I do for you people :lol:.

Hope everyone’s weekend is off to a great start!

Thank you again for this opportunity to try this out. I still have one or two more I want to try it on before I send it back, but it has made me want my own. And also that flat link speedy bracelet Stretch has.

Family watches are indeed always compliant. It's an unwritten rule, but now you are in the know. You're dad had great taste too! I feel for the poor children who's dad's are buying invictas on cruise ships because "this $1200 watch is on sale for only $600!!". They'll be lucky if ma and pa at least splurged on an 8926.

We gave that watch to him as a gift...you know, because I like watches :lol:. My wife said that it was $60 at TJ Maxx, which goes to show that you don't have to spend a lot for a nice looking watch.

Field watch, cat, and grandpop's WWII watch compliant. Switched up and am finishing the night with my Oris. Really can't believe I even considered selling it.

[mention]Dub Rubb[/mention], if you want to try out the Uncle Seiko flat link or Forstner flat link, let me know.

Seiko Saturday compliant. I think Seiko may have gone a little overboard with the new Tuna.

That's the new MoT MegaJumbo XL Tuna. I told them the embargo didn't end until Monday! :evil:

Interesting dial color. I'm not sure I've seen a dial that shade before.

This is so funny.
I think it gives you great wrist presence - not sure that strap colour is the right one. LOL!
