    Well not too convinced about that, there are some things I haven't tried, that I'm sure I wouldn't like!

    Thanks I'm sure I will, you too.
    Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.

    Back in the 1980s Wang Computers (remember them?) had a European office in Germany. Apparently if you phoned them they answered "Hello, Wang Cologne"

    There, got this thread back on track. Wang -> Wristers -> Mornington Crescent

Would they continue to Wristers of London and checkout or just move on?

    Cockwomble_luke, with friends like you (and Ant) who needs enemies?

    Reading this thread about Wristers of London, I will not be using Wristers of London to find me a watch.
    There are other dealers with better customer service than Wristers of London, who would call prospective customers names? Very childish by Wristers of London
    Nope definitely won’t be using Wristers of London.
    I note that nobody else on the thread apart from Clock Bait Luke has used Wristers of London.
    To be fair the chaps behind Wristers of London haven’t called anyone nonce or any other names. Their self-appointed spokesman, clockbait_luke is responsible. He has allegedly checked with Wristers of London before replying to this thread, and I’d hazard a guess that Luke’s actions weren’t quite what Wristers of London had in mind if/when they ok’d that Cockbait could speak up. One message he claims to have forwarded on their behalf and that message contains the following section:

    Thanks for reading

    Wristers of London
    (...)
    If we assume Cockwomble wasn’t lying about it and it’s actually from the very Wristers of London, it is the biggest crime they’ve committed on here. Everything else is Cockbit Luke’s own doing, if we disregard his blatant lies about the mystery Ant being behind the Instagram nonce insults.

    The main problem now for WOL is the word nonce, through this thread and the link posted (where it originated) algorithms will link Wristers, London, Luke, Clockbait, Nonce and other associated words.

    Overtime, anyone searching deep enough will see the word nonce linked to the company name, that will then generate the person searching to probably click on it making it a more current keyword.

    The WOL guys obviously like watches and photography like many of us here, I’m sure over a pint we would all get on and could probably talk for hours.

    Unfortunately the communication slid into the mire and here we are..

    I think it is older than that profession.
    It can be applied to any conservative risk averse group

    Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night wondering how it's going for Wristers of London.

    Or for Clockbait?

    Thoughts and prayers for both of them!
    Someone who lies about the little things will lie about the big things too.
