OWC News - 2019-04-19 OWC is Back

Post by foxint@foxint.com.au »

2019-04-19 – OWC Back

Hi All,

As you know, I lost the plot when Dad contracted cancer and totally lost it when he married a non-resident for residency reasons 2 days before he died. According to Australian Law after the marriage, I lost all legal status and as my lawyer said I was Donald Ducked.

We made an illegal trip to Sydney with a removal company and took all Dad’s stuff to Orange. The bitch sent her lawyer and filed a suit against me for illegally taking Dad’s stuff and making a claim on the estate – she was technical correct. After much legal stuff, letters to the Immigration Minister, my State Member, my Federal Member etc…. we had her on the run. Eventually, with immigration on her tail, after she realised that Dad had no money, his flat was rented, he had no savings and his pension stopped the day he died, she backed off.

Back to normal and I have many bridges to repair, credibility to rebuild and apologies to make.

I have reset the clock, and all starts from now.

• I have a new industrial designer as my previous guy had an affair, his wife kicked him out and now going through a divorce (so not the most reliable guy now – but he may return).
• New CAD drawings are in the process of being made
• A redesign of the Diver and a New Dress Watch
• I have new movement #1 – Top Grade with Premium Regulation (from my understanding the only thing different to a Chronometre is the COSC certification).
• These will find their way into the NEW Snowflake (see below). A limited release of less than 100 watches (may be more). No options – what you see is what you get. First in best dressed (I am taking orders and deposits now).
• Trying to squeeze in a new watch travel box – but again the past events scuttled many of the negotiations. As you know Mr Chan and Mr Wang what the order for a zillion there and then.
• Pray for some luck.

That is the plan. I hope I can achieve some of these in 2019. As a sweetener the New Snowflake comes with some surprises.

This enough drama to make a movie from.

I do hope that you are now back to quiet waters and will be able to continue with the things you really like to do.

Thanks guys.

The bitch is quiet, and I have no idea where she is. Hope it stays that way….

I am hoping by Mid-May the New Snowflakes will be slowly coming off the line.

It will be a limited release, so if you want to secure one now, let me know and I am taking a USD100 holding deposit – PayPal – foxint@foxint.com.au

Hope you have a good break – we call it the Chocolate Festival…. ha-ha.

Hi Guys

Thank you all for your friendship and support.

Quiet Sunday, trying to avoid WWIII with the girls. Perhaps too many chocolate easter eggs

Some have been asking, and I will get back to you. I re-did my spread sheets - yes I love my spread sheets more than I really should.

New Snowflake with SW-300-1 Top Grade Premium Regulation, with a "Special Surpise" inside that will only go up in value....USD1,449 - price good for those who place an order and a USD100 deposit (PayPal - foxint@foxint.com.au). (With the current Puzzle Box)
