LE 51-100 shipping soon?

Post by carman63 »

Consider this a rumor if you wish. But, I emailed Margaret to see if I could get both a SS bracelet and the leather strap, but have the SS bracelet mounted. She replied, and asked if I wanted her to call me or use PayPal to pay for the watch, as (her words) "they should be ready for shipping quite soon now".

Perhaps Hans can verify, but if this is true then it's good news :D

Edit: Never mind. Sounds like due to the shortage of ETA movements these have been delayed until May/June. :(

I have been waiting patiently and will continue to wait patiently, but would it not be appropriate for Christopher Ward to inform his customers of the watches progress and the likely dispatch dates, rather then information being spread through rumour control!

Others and I have received an email regarding the situation including when they expect to receive the movements (mid-May) and dispatch the order (end of May/first week of June).

Have just managed to acquire Forum LE #64 owing to a cancelled order and it appears delivery will be in July, but as I am not in a hurry it doesn't bother me.

Given this delay I guess there may be one or two more come up for grabs from cancelled orders??

A good stroke of luck for you. It will be worth the wait.

Congrats to you.

I hope that Hans got my PM and if any more people cancel will have a chance at getting this watch! :)
Have - quite a few
Want - not too much

I've been waiting and waiting and waiting. Frankly, I've lost interest. If they call me, I may still be interested, but I suspect that they've simply forgotten.
