Ronin Posted June 7, 2024 Report Posted June 7, 2024 Anyone know if there has been similar crack downs with the trusted parts suppliers? Another end-of-an-era??? -Ruby, site login disabled and “suspect” replacement site— well…seems suspect. -MinhQ , unresponsive as well. -Yuki retired. -Phong still up/around from US, but selection is hit or miss and $$$$.

Ronin Posted June 7, 2024 Author Report Posted June 7, 2024 Yep, sites are still online in both Ruby/Minh's cases, but zero comm's or order fulfillment's. 🤷♂️
oldtools Posted June 8, 2024 Report Posted June 8, 2024 Yuki's site is still active. You heard he was retiring? https://www.yukiwatch.com/ETA*Submariner-5513-gloss-dial-p595789838

However, Yuki does appear 'back' under the s-timeasia domain and regained control over yukiwatch domain. The Ruby "alternative" site however seems sketchy. It feels like it is running on someones old Pentium in a closet somewhere. LOL. I am always skeptical of copy-cats, etc. The fact Ruby's original site is still accessible but not "Login-able" nor responding to emails gives me pause, especially on the new copy-cat site. 🤷♂️
