Watch Company Issues The Absolute BEST Response To Gillette
Chicks On The Right ^ | January 20, 2019 | Hannah Bleau

If it seemed like they were lumping masculinity in with harassment and bullying, it’s because they were lumping masculinity in with harassment and bullying. Masculinity is toxic! I’m willing to bet they lost a ton of customers over that little stunt. This is the best response I’ve seen yet. Egard Watch Company took Gillette HEAD on.

1 million views, 19K up (vs 1K down) and TONS of promises to buy the watches (including me).

Gillete has been manipulating YT — They have been deleted negative comments (although mine appear to still be there) and SOMEHOW causing the thumbs down numbers to reduce (although it is still 2:1 against). When this whole thing started it was 10:1 against.

“I’m willing to bet they lost a ton of customers over that little stunt.”

I’ve been using the Gillette Mach whatever for decades now after using the Gillette Trac II for years before that.

Just got back from Wal Mart a few minutes ago...I bought the Schick Quattro Titanium razor with extra cartridges.

Even if they apologize I’m through with them...they made a fatal mistake.

My daughter works at the Costco returns & membership counter. This weekend, the #1 returned product was Gillette products. More than just razors cause everything with the Gillette logo was being returned.

“the #1 returned product was Gillette products.”

Gillette waited until after Christmas “dad-gifts” buying to release it’s anti-male ad.

Their watches aren't badly priced either. A wide range of options ...

I have a special event coming up with my son. I think I may know what to get him ...

Gillette better WATCH OUT!!!!

Men are shaving less. And we have a ever-growing array of alternatives to Gillette, such as Harry’s, Dollar Shave, and store-brand products based on those Korean razors.

Now Gillette has given even their die-hard users a very good reason to DITCH their products!! PHOOEY, PHOOEY, and PHOOEY again!!!!

I’ve watched this a couple of times and I’ve teared up both times.

It sure can do that! It’s a strong ad that doesn’t need to tear anyone - much lass an entire gender - down to make it’s point.
