B1gdee05 Appreciate the link. Definitely not a watch for me; too small, and too run-of-the-mill from a design and features perspective. No idea what prompted or inspired its creation, save the possible exception of catering to the slender wrist crowd. I have nothing against those so afflicted, but I take exception to the few among them who insist all watches cater to their wrists. Functionally, it’s supposed to be a “Diver”. By design a diver should be oversized, not undersized—it needs to be read under water, in low light, and occasionally, where life and limb hang in the balance. While a 38mm watch might fit perfectly on a 14-year old girl’s wrist, and be read easily enough with her eyesight, it would serve no purpose on my “manly” 8 1/2” wrist, nor could I likely read the time with my equally manly, middle-aged-plus failing vision. To be blunt, in my opinion divers under 42mm are predominantly fashion watches whose manufacturers are merely hopping on the diver watch bandwagon (Rolex Submariners included). Feature-wise, and for $290, the Excition MKII seems to be an “also-ran” that’s easily beat by any number of offerings from my favorite high-value, low-price watch company: HEIMDALLR. Their watches use ceramic bezels, coated sapphire crystals, and preferable SEIKO movements (rather than Miyota). From a value perspective, many of Heimdallr’s best watches are priced WELL under two-hundred bucks, and are available TODAY, with none of the “maybes” and “here-today, gone-tomorrow” issues inherent with Kickstarter offerings. So, from my point of view, and speaking as a guy who owns a dozen or so SEIKO Divers, and at least 3 (maybe 4) Heimdallrs, I don’t see any reason to get excited about the Excition MKII. PS: did I mention I like Seikos too?

Drop rainy75 Shipping to Australia

I have filled out the payment and contact form for the WOBKEY Rainy75 Mechanical Keyboard and typed in my correct address but when click "continue to shipping", it comes up with "Your order cannot be shipped to the selected address. Review your address to ensure it's correct and try again, or select a different address." If anyone knows whether it can be shipped to Australia or how to solve this issue, it would be greatly appreciated.

Drop Keyboard Club Questions

Hello everyone! I'm looking to join DKC, but I have a few questions. The first day of November has already passed. Will I still get the coupon for November immediately after signing up today (Nov. 10)? What is the definition of Mechanical Keyboard products? Will the coupon apply to desk mats? I believe it should apply to everything listed under this category? For orders under $79, the coupon will be converted to a percentage discount. Will the percentage discount apply to all mechanical keyboard items in an entire order, or it can only be applied to a single mechanical keyboard item in the order? Thanks in advance!
