As of this morning, I only have 12 gray dials left. I expect to be SOLD OUT over the next week or so. I still have 35 black dials left.

Best,
Todd
No surprise there, the gray is a looker. If you haven't already checked out the Hexa F74 dial, Todd - it's a great example of a gray dial
Yeah that's nice. I like this shade too.

That's a good looking watch, K. You referring specifically to the dial or subdials?

I was thinking the main dial, but those sub dials are cool too.

What shade of gray were you thinking exactly, Todd? I imagined a sunburst gray but what's the designer have to say?

Ralph, I am working on the actual dial as we speak. I hope to have a picture or two to show over the next couple of weeks.

Let your product and CS speak for you and the rest will come. You already have your BradyStraps backing and some folks know you for the Bombfrogs as well. If you truly were some bullshit artist, you wouldn't be welcome here.

Honestly, I saw that thread and thought it was total b.s. and that's what led me here and to pre-order the watch. I was always a fan of the Bombfrog, still am.

WUS is owned by a bigger group now, correct? Perhaps owner-management got wind of what the mods were up to and didn't approve of their approach.

Good thought. To my knowledge they've never backed down before.

Most likely what happened, and I'm glad. The new owners know that if the mods keep pissing off members, they paid Ernie a ton of cash for an empty forum.

Am glad they reopened the threads.
That was silly and neither of us had posted anything wrong or misleading or inappropriate Nor are we affiliated with the brand from a business perspective.

You should also be given the opportunity to state your side of the story.

BTW, keep the WUS bashing to the RR. Let's keep this thread clean for Todd's updates.

Who are you? It's like spouting off about a hamburger that you ate, while standing at a bus stop, to people that don't know you...no one is going to listen!

This watch brought lots of FNG's over from WUSsy. I doubt many will last.
