Cannon you are on a slippery slope right now with one foot out the door and another on a banana peel:D...open discussion is one thing but as you took offense to opinions of the Ocean7 which were both sided you replied with outright speculation on brands that were discussed here the same as Ocean7...difference is the owners of those companies came on in response as gentlemen and never even as much mentioned their competition as you have ..not to mention chastising a member in good standing for his opinion! and furtermore how about telling us your username on WUS Ocean7 fora so we know who you are instead of joining here under and assumed alias???:shock:

Cannon.......................welcome to 3T and thank you for your comments. Not sure who you are or if your comments have a vested interest or not...I would hope not. To find that you are surprised to read criticisms of Oceans7 or any brand on a watch forum surprises me and arouses my curiosity. Your post sounds kind of like a marketing spiel, et al!
There is praise and criticism a virally every brand on every reasonable forum (although one runs the risk of being flamed, if not banned, on WUS for criticizing Oceans7). Read the criticisms of Rolex, ZENO, Hamilton, et al....along with the praise. Different people have different opinions.
I, for one, did email Oceans7, with a question. The curt, condescending reply (yes, it was quick), was what actually turned me off on the company. That opinion could change, as did my opinion of ORSA based upon improved performance.
That said, hopefully, you will take this post in the light in which it is intended, and, unless your sole purpose for posting was to point out how wrong we might be, we look forward, we look forward to continued contributions from you on a variety of threads.
Hello, well I will introduce myself again since my first post was deleted. I am new to this forum but not new to watch forums. I own or have owned many watches discussed. They include Doxa's, Kobolds, Ocean7's, Orsa's, Bathys, Timefactors, Everest's, Damasko's, Sinn's, Zeno's etc... I have shared my opinions on watches I have owned on many forums. I share the good and bad. I have no vested interest in Ocean7 or any other brand. However I do have a problem with individuals who bad mouth or put down watches or brands based nothing more than on speculation. I decided to post in this thread originally because I took offense to people posting personal opinions as facts. I have learned through private messages that because I mentioned brands whose owners are friends with the owner of this forum my post was deleted. It's a real shame that an open discussion can't take place here.
Ken, I personally would love to read the email that was sent to Ocean7 and their response that turned you off on the company. Any chance you can share it?
