Although I have blasted ShopNBC in the past, I do enjoy your broadcasts. I'm sure I will be buying from ShopNBC again sometime in the future. Invicta is simply the best "bang for your buck" in the watch industry. P.S. I would have bought my new Invicta Abysss through ShopNBC had they not sold out . . . « Last Edit: Feb 13, 2005, 4:47pm by mcquillian »

Any word on Winders. I'm holding up to see what you come up with. I love the new Pro Driver. I believe I'll be adding that to my collection soon. Thanks, David Link to Post - Back to Top

David, I am a huge fan (and owner of one) of the Everwell winders, and John Rigano is a SUPER great guy to deal with. He is a member here as well as a sponsor, I would highly suggest emailing him and seeing what you can grab. On the flipside I have worked with Lior at SWI on a new line of high end/budget priced winders that should make their debut at ShopNBC in the next 30 days or so. From singles up to 6 watch winders... and they are all in exotic woods. Joined: Feb 2005 Gender: Male Posts: 500 Location: Minnesota
Honestly though I can't say enough good things about Everwell and John... you can't lose either way. =============================================== ===== Thanks Bryan! I won't comment on the other forums but I am happy to say that I have been treated very well here even after going in to be the watch guy at ShopNBC. I like to do now what I have always done... provide as much information about watches (Invicta in particular) as I can, and use my contacts to benefit those who would like to know about upcoming models and events. I did this before joining ShopNBC, and enjoy the chance to continue to do so without being labeled. « Last Edit: Feb 14, 2005, 12:26am by jskelton »

Hello Jim, Most of here knew who the real Oompa was anyway. I think Jskelton has a nicer ring to it. BTW what's the backstory to the old handle? I can understand the Lupah part but the Oompa always had me stumped.

Jim I always enjoy watching you and ShopNBC. I usually just watch the late show due to the family commintments and activities during the day. Great show last nite, especially that Sapphire Ghost and the LE Speedway/Daytona. May be one in my future. Karl Link to Post - Back to Top

Dude, I am already used to calling you Oompa. I refuse to comply and you can't make me Maybe I should start calling you Oompa/Tom/Jim like your buddy TimO does Boston Red Sox 2004 World Series Champs!
