A LOCUS AWARD FINALIST FOR BEST FIRST NOVEL
Award-winning author Chen Qiufan's Waste Tide is a thought-provoking vision of the future. Translated by Ken Liu, who brought Cixin Liu's Hugo Award-winning The Three Body Problem to English-speaking readers. Mimi is drowning in the world's trash. She's a waste worker on Silicon Isle, where electronics -- from cell phones and laptops to bots and bionic limbs -- are sent to be recycled. These amass in towering heaps, polluting every spare inch of land. On this island off the coast of China, the fruits of capitalism and consumer culture come to a toxic end. Mimi and thousands of migrant waste workers like her are lured to Silicon Isle with the promise of steady work and a better life. They're the lifeblood of the island's economy, but are at the mercy of those in power. A storm is brewing, between ruthless local gangs, warring for control. Ecoterrorists, set on toppling the status quo. American investors, hungry for profit. And a Chinese-American interpreter, searching for his roots. As these forces collide, a war erupts -- between the rich and the poor; between tradition and modern ambition; between humanity's past and its future. Mimi, and others like her, must decide if they will remain pawns in this war or change the rules of the game altogether. An accomplished eco-techno-thriller with heart and soul as well as brain. Chen Qiufan is an astute observer, both of the present world and of the future that the next generation is in danger of inheriting. - David Mitchell, New York Times bestselling author of Cloud AtlasBinding Type: Paperback

Top Class Watch
Color: sliver band blue face-G5885G
I really love this watch, its very bright in the night, it was very easy to set the time on it, I also love the weight of this watch, it's definitely of top class quality, thankfully I didn't need the tool to adjust the band because it fit perfectly fine, plus the quartz system is working quite well, hasn't missed a second since I set it. Time keeping is amazing. Overall, I love this watch so much, I'm thinking of buying the black face one as I bought the blue face one.

Tracking Process & Quality of Product
Color: Black Watches for Men/Black Dial-2870
I don't know where to review the tracking process so I will do it here. I just love the fact that they list stop by stop where your order is. I ordered this for my son for his graduation present and was very excited to give it to him. I was able to see how many stops the driver had before he got to me which allowed me to not only have a better idea of its arrival time, but I was also able to enjoy a buildup of excitement as it got closer and closer.
As for the quality of the product ~ both my son and I are very impressed and more than satisfied with the watch so far. I was very trepidatious as so many items, especially jewelry items, look stunning, gorgeous, beautiful, high quality in the pictures online and are nothing short of utterly disappointing when you get them. This watch renewed my belief that there are honest sellers out there. I will say that we just got the watch today so this is purely about the initial presentation and look of the watch.
So, the packaging was super nice, high-end quality. Each piece (bands, watchface) were separately wrapped in nice, thick plastic to protect from scratching. The boxes (box for watch & slip cover outer box) were great quality (you know, so many companie's packaging falls apart at barely a touch, which makes me wonder about the quality of what's inside). Thorough, grammatically correct (mostly) directions included; also had tools for taking out links along with fairly easy to follow pictured & written directions. We did have to use a separate pin with a head (like tailors use to mark hem points) to push out the pins bcz the one included bent.
One thing I really appreciate is that the company said they are there anytime and to please let them know of any issues. Usually companies do all they can to make it as hard as possible to be contacted.
I couldn't stop looking at the watch! It DEFINITELY looks SO MUCH MORE expensive than it was! And the workings move like a Rolex (smoothly), not jumpy like the workings of normal watches. Even my husband remarked on how "Rolexey" it looked. I ordered the all black watch.
Again, we've only just gotten it, but if the initial presentation is any indicator of its performance, WE'VE GOT A WINNER!!

Good looking cost effective
Color: Gold Silver Stainless Steel/Blue Dial-2870, Color: Gold Silver Stainless Steel/Blue Dial-2870
Good for the price. Looks nice from a distance. Feels heavy. Is a bit noisy when you walk. But value for money.

Low cost watch returned.
Color: Gold Silver Stainless Steel/Black Dial-2870
I returned this watch the next day after receiving it. It was very attractive and I hope it would work as advertised. The watch came in shrink wrapped plastic that was very tough to removed. I feared damaging the watch. I set it then tried some of its features. The stopwatch worked but it did not reset to the zero position properly. The 24 hour time indicator was off by one hour. The rotating bezel had black lacquer on it that was tender to the touch. A fingernail could have damaged it and a very small nick had already started out of the box. If everything had worked properly I would have kept it for the money spent. I guess you get what you pay for so I am now shopping for a higher quality watch.
