Anyone else subscribe to Revolution Watch Magazine???

I saw an issue online and was intrigued.

http://www.revolution-press.com/

The mag comes out of Singapore. It's basically Watchtime meets GQ / Vogue... Lots of eye candy / thick mag - advert heavy.

At any rate, did not realize they publish 4 X a year. Subscribed way back in May of 2010. Got two issues at once after a long delay....and then nothing.

Just emailed them....but wondering if anyone here - Sing members? - knows the scoop on this pub.

I subscribed around the time that you did (May 2010). I recall that it was a complimentary subscription relating to a promotion and did not have to pay. I have yet to receive a single issue. I forgot all about it for months and then emailed them. Now, about one year later I have not received an issue and about six months after that email to them I have not received a reply.

Oy vey! Thanks for the info.

I recall having to email to get the issues I got...but then, no mas.

Well, live and learn.

Watchtime is nice and reliable. Much more conservative tho

I pick it up at the local bookstore. Not bad actually. Some decent interviews and information. Great photos too....Jocke, you getting this?? hint hint! Aside, the magazine is a bit pricey but worth the read. I donate all my old issues to the nursing home and hospital here.

I've read a couple issues in Delta Skyclubs and it seems like a good read with a variety of articles and pictures. No experience with subscriptions though...

I was given one magazine when I bought a watch. Not a bad read.
