The Asian Watch Forum Chicken soup for the WIS soul! This is a forum established to discuss all Asian watches as a primary focus (both Japanese and Chinese) as well as other watches from the least expensive to the most expensive. This will be lightly moderated and the idea is to have fun and share your knowledge and experience. Discussion of Homage watches is fine but please do not post pics of/or discuss fake watches. There are many subforums here and they can be found using the drop down menu above. A golden rule here is to attack the post and not the poster. This forum operates on moderated posting so if you are a new poster you might have to wait a few minutes until your first post is approved. Therefter though you will be able to post without any delays. O.T. discussions are fine but serious topics like politics and religion should be discussed in "The AWF Cafe" subforum. Any questions or concerns can be addressed to: mark.adeney@sympatico.ca
