international watchman straps?

Recommended Posts

Anyone bought straps from international watchman?

Price seem very good but MSRP/actual price is probably invicta type marketing.

They do seem to a a little bit too good to be true... Best part is their web site - circa 1995...

I remember reading good things about them but don't recall where. Website really is back to the future.

I called them a few weeks ago and they seemed very friendly & efficient. I believe they are listed as a TD on one of the other rep forums.

Interesting, I don't see them as TD on RG or RWI but I didn't spend all day on those sites either.

 

Looking forward to see how Edwelly makes out.

I received a reply to my inquiry to IW today.

 

Very interesting site but what a lousy website.

I think you have to call. Guess low prices come from not having a fancy hi tech web page for placing orders....

I called and spoke with a woman. She said after my first order, I could email future orders.

UPDATE: If you have been to there web site: http://www.internationalwatchman.com/home.html - you have noticed there is no way to place on order online. So I called on Friday 04/15 and spoke with a nice young lady. I told her the 3 straps I wanted and make sure they all came with at least a basic buckle which she assured me they did. She took my credit card info, told me my order would ship out Monday and we were done. Today still nothing. Now keep in mind I am less than 5 hours from their location. So far, I am not too impressed. The ordering process was 'iffy' at best and not getting any tracking info is not a good sign. The good news is that my CC has been charged so I got that going for me :rolleyes:

Sorry, I meant Friday 04/15. I edited my post to reflect my stupidity.

Hey Bro,

 

Did you ever get your order from this company; if so give us a review of what you bought?

Still waiting... I think it has gotten 'lost' in the mail. If I do not have it by Monday, I will ask the place to send another order so I should get at least one of these :)
