    :-) glad somebody noticed. It's been optimised for phone and tablet browsing being as an increasing number of customers are using them.

    Loads up quickly which is always a plus point.

    Looks good, another big tick.

    Easy to use.

    Can't fault it.

    It looks great, both on my Win 8 desktop, and my iPhone.

    The watch info section is new isn't it? Great for those new to the sickness

    An improvement over the old one in anticipation of some new releases? :-)

    Looks fine, Eddie. I don't use an i-phone or tablet so don't personally need the optimization for those but obviously many will. Speaking only for myself, though, the one thing I miss from the just replaced former frontpage are the sequential images of various of your current and past TF watch models. I think that simple presentation likely might have served to well and immediately illustrate the uniqueness of Timefactors for newcomers on their arrival to your site. Rollon

    Nice to see more websites moving with the times and eradicating mouse over events and drop menu's to cater for the mobile devices that are rapidly taking over the world.

    There is nothing more frustrating than a website that you literally cannot navigate on your mobile phone, because every screen tap just brings up a zoomed view of a non responding menu bar....

    Why are the product range names contained within coloured circles arranged as a grid by connecting bars?
    To my eyes this implies a hierarchy and is at risk of causing confusion to the unfamiliar - which is the last thing a buyer wants.

    It's an image map to make it work better with touch screens, the previous fly-out/drop-down menus are almost impossible to use on mobile devices. You could also argue that the drop-down menus imply a hierarchy.

    Righty-ho.

    I often use a Playbook for web surfing. It is very slow with some websites, but I've got to say, the new Time Factors site simply flies on it and is very easy to navigate too.

    Between Trooping and getting the Merc ready to go back I have not been on line for a couple of days so I just saw it. Looks good.

    I like the Main Screen but the Page for "Watch Range" http://www.timefactors.com/watches.htm looks like a Power Point Presentation :( *ugly*

    Best Regards

    I though my computer was messed up again then I found this thread. I tried the site on my iphone and runs very well there! Nice job Eddie. The cookie warning is a little annoying though.

    I thought it was a tribute demonstrating Eddie's love of Brussels...



    Love the new site by the way, much easier from the ipad

    I like it overall but the watch range page design is a bit bizarre.
