I scanned my PC and found 52 issues, all JAVA exploits designed for remote monitoring / access. I would recommend doing a comprehensive virus scan on your PC.
It's too bad the site is all flash. I usually hit these sites from my iPad, but no such luck.

There have been 2000 visitors in the last 2 days on ravenwatches.com. My website is very elementary html and the blog is basic Wordpress, it did not crash your computer.

Came before noon via Expressed Mail.
Packaging is great. Could have been drop-kicked from Kansas and save on postage.
Cool water-tight canister to plunge over Niagara Falls, or used as a floatation device during a plane crash.
Extra spring bars -- for when the original ones break while wrestling alligators or fighting zombies.
Internal packaging, snug and tight for one watch, rubber diver strap, Zulu strap, business card, and dated warranty card. Content sure to survive a drop-kick to the moon or the belly of an alligator.

Watch is cocooned inside layers of protective plastic.
Pretty darn substantial watch. Has good weight, but not overwhelming. Very nice feel. Holding the Raven is like holding a roll of quarters for a sucker punch.
Next to the Kingston. There are very obvious differences, notably the size, but I'll save the details for another post (if there even needs to be one, as they're different watches).
The dome is incredible, like warm ice. It's tall and big and eye-bulging... You can start a micro-climate inside it and support life through climate change.
Nice case back. Clean and sharp.
Some initial thoughts:
As has been discussed, this is a big watch, and although it follows the design cues of the classic sub, I consider this a design exercise for modern wear. It is substantial and will make a 7-inch (or larger) wrist very happy. And for those with tiny wrists who enjoy wearing large watches, this is a good choice. The case and construction display quality craftsmanship. The stainless steel bracelet is incredible! A wonderful part of the entire package.
As for me, with my puny wrist and my aging taste, I'm unsure I can wear a 42mm anymore. I should have learned my lesson several flips ago. I'll keep it in the plastic for a few days and decide if it has a home with me or with someone who has a larger wrist. Too bad, because I absolutely love the design of this Raven. Well done, Steve!
Best,

Life is short. How sad to have realized in your death bed that you've worn a crappy watch as a "daily beater" for most of your days.

Johnny,
That Kingston hasn't been worn since the 18th!? Safe queen? Wear it or sell it to me! (seriously, sell it to me...)![]()
Congrats Johnny!! It looks great, you should definitely wear it a day or two, give it a chance. I'm loving the bracelet. Thanks for sharing.
One more day til the big arrival for meI may have three landings tomorrow
I'll also add that I've browsed the Raven website several times the past few weeks from my home PC and laptop, from my work PC, and iPhone. I was able to access it without issues all times and have had no issues.
