I'm still waiting for mine. How long did it take to get it? They mentioned up to a month to row a boat to the US from China.

Did you ever notice that for most pictures of a watch in an ad etc. that the time is set at 10 after 10 regardless of local time? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

So you stole that picture from an ad? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

How do we know your watch is even running? Maybe it's sitting on your dresser on tiny jackstands.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)
