Sign Up! Unless You Can't Wait 'Til October

Post by Piloten »

Not everyone may like this but I think it's the coolest thing since one of the members posted up pics of . . . well, never mind, still a sensitive subject for some.

I like one hand watches. I hate not having some indication the thing is running. Ferro watches of Vancouver (Canadian, eh) have solved that little problem . . .

OR a standard 6498 if you prefer.

It's even one of my favourite whimsical cars. $499USD pre-purchase for a modified bulletproof movement. A great car. What's not to like?

I like it, I like the concept, like the movement. Dial is a tad too busy for me, but overall it's a nice piece. Hope they do well.

Gives me a bit of a Doxa Ultraspeed vibe, but yeah, it's gimmicky.

And shazam,.the deposits are being taken tomorrow. These guys have always done the kickatarter thing, (and made an appearance on the old HF if you recall), so my fifty bucks is likely safe.

Now comes the "did they get enough deposits" week. We will either be asked to pony up or get our deposits back...

Well then....

I can admit when I'm wrong. After months of asking, I sent the following shittygram

"Sorry to have to ask a hard question but I have a hard question. The 356 series is now a year past the first anticipated delivery date. Do you have an actual update?"

The... terse.. .reply

"Hello and thank you for reaching out.

The 356 watch production has finally ended and are on their way to us. We should have them within the next couple of days. As soon as we receive them, we will pack and ship them and e mail tracking numbers to all backers.

Thank you in advance for your support and patience.

With kind regards,

Bob"

To the point....I guess

Well, congrats. Interesting looking piece :)

On another note, this seems to be a very serious company, at least when it comes to tracking/advertizing/marketing; when you go to their site, the browser tries to connect to 35 sites/domains. Just WOW!
