Either the author is confused, lying, or Pulsar is making the 3502 again.

Hi,
I think they took the text and picture from here:
http://ledwatchstop.com/store/pulsar-watch-sport-3502-mint-p-108.html

And the watch itself comes from Barbie9.
Seiko isn't involved at all in it.
The "journalist" get confused...

The guy who wrote that article doesn't know Jack. He even thinks "NOS" is the name of the model. Do i really need to say more? :lol:

POS(not "parent over shoulder).....good for cleaning up in the smallest room of the house. :o But what can you expect from a site that doesn't list the writer(s), no FAQ/ABOUT/CONTACT page,nothing. Probably all computer generated using Wikipedia and Google. :P

Plain BS. Not a single sentence is correct. The "article" is anonymous (as Ed mentioned). The worst thing is, people not knowing the facts might read this and believe that "Pulsar's parent predecessor was the famous Japanese corporation Seiko" etc. etc....
Anyway, it's good advertising for barbie9's 3502s on ebay (is he the author? :wink: ), and perhaps even good for LED watches at all.

I saw this guys article a couple weeks ago and emailed the site administrator (contact info via Whois) and mentioned that he used our photo without asking.....and that his facts were BS.

Still no response from the the site.

It doesn't give readers of the site much confidence when this extremely poorly researched article appears, but I did have a little look around, and there's some interesting, although mostly gimicky, stuff.

Anyone for
transformers that turn in to trainers?

I get the impression it's an amature, one man band, website. I just wouldn't base any purchases on the information written there.
The other day, my computer beat me at chess. It was rubbish at kick boxing though.
