Agreed on the traffic -- unfortunately, it appears that watch collecting has been a major casualty of the worldwide economic downturn.
Almost all of the watch sites I visit have far less posts than two or three years ago.

I need to post here more often, but I spent most of the last 15 months on an assignment which kept me overseas (with only two or three watches and nothing but a phone camera). It cut down on my posts and I am not as habitual about Zowie/Omega as I once was.
