Mariner Watch Under Fire

A number of disturbing advertisements appeared on Mariner Watches social media pages last week. The images portrayed women being forced to drink alcohol and in sexually suggestive positions. in response, of course, the Internet went crazy on social media. I yet another ad featuring a man wearing a Mariner Watch grabbing the throat of a woman.

People were so offended that the company then disabled its Twitter and Instagram accounts and even their website. Mariner Watches then posted a statement they describe as an “apology” on their Facebook page.
