Default OT, Ryan's Ford Pocketwatch

Is it just me? I tried to 'check-it-out', and came up with almost nothing. It leads to a site for the pocketwatch, but I don't find ANY info. Is it mechanical? electric? how many jewels? movement type & description? how about price? when available?
All I see is a place to insert an email address to 'get-on-the-list".
Have I missed something?
Ryan, you've gotta be kidding. Or, please point me to the info?
I offer this topic for forum-police deletion.

I don't think Ryan would put those ads on his front page if it was not legitimate. Although the name "Shinola" does sound a little hokey a$$ All the info I clicked on came up okay for me.

I had the same results Bob. Maybe it not finished in production. The watch
does not show Ford logos etc. It seems to advertise "Shinola" more.

Its not a Ford product so it will not have the Ford logos. If you read about it its supposed to be made in honor of Henry to the same quality he would have wanted, at least thats how I interpreted it. Judging by the prices of their other products its not going to be cheap. Their logo kind of reminds me of the old Studebaker logo.
