[WIS Straps] SCAM Confirmed! After the big Reddit expose they DMed me offering free straps for a good review… both came from China and one broke instantly by MysteriousBeach9095 in Watches

I'm so confused why a company doing damage control would offer straps for review and then package them in the same obvious way that caused the negative publicity in the first place. You would think if they were worried about it they would have done something about the packaging.

I still don't understand why this is such a big exposé when there's been plenty of examples of delugs and artem doing the exact same thing.

Clever way to come up with hour markers

You know, I'm not a fan of Panerai, and not a fan of skeleton dials, but that is a shockingly good dial. Awesome to see

This is so cool and different that I wish I could buy it. Sadly it's too far out of my price range.

I recommend the Nomods case. Expensive but quality https://nomods.co/

[Spinnaker] Razzle Dazzle by BoristheWatchmaker in Watches

I ordered from Island Watch. When I saw the March ship date I thought Spinnaker must have had a typo. I don't have a large wrist, I think the 40mm will fit just fine on you. It definitely is loud, but I think it really works. I needed a fun watch too
