mwc2 the afterlife

Most of the established mods left, i heard, unhappy that their free labour was being used to support a profit making commercial company.

My last post said about how their moderating was bizarre - deleting all the posts poking fun at the spammer, but leaving his adverts up. I didn't get anything from WUS but I did see the thinly-veiled threat on MWC2 that debating their mods was a way to see your days numbered. I could see it going downhill, since Ernie left the new mods are on a power trip.

well hope they turn up here there was some good ones but then it will always change when it goes from some one who does it for the love of watches then when a company takes over. if I had been a mod doing it for the hobbies I would have been happy but putting the effort for some faceless company to make money then hell no I'm out there saying that would not want to be a mod anyway to lazy and opinionated to be one haha

Agreed. Nothing against forum moderators or WU S but there was no need to kill our thread after 30,000 posts without at least being polite about it.

So my Brathwait is still for sale. If it sells them Seiko Solar or Gigandet I reckon. I like this one, similar to the Tudor Heritage Chrono I like

there a lot of nice gigandet designs and good prices too!

[Richmondmike]

Has anyone actually bought one? Wonder how they compare to Seiko s and accurists I the same price bracket. I expect the bracelets will be trash like most high street brands In that range.
