Heard they’ll only keep it for 30 days?

 

I suspect if you pay for it (credit card # over phone, etc.) they will hold it for you as long as you need.

 

Yea, I'm hoping they aren't going to be inflexible about this. Plenty of ways to manage this.

 

When I got the call from the Boutique, I asked if it would be OK to hold onto it for a week or two since I'll be out of town on the weekends when I could take the 2-hour drive, offered to pay in full as well... they said they'd hold it for any reasonable amount of time unless I wasn't returning their calls, at which point they'd assume I wasn't interested. They're not inhuman, they know we've been excitedly waiting for them for a while and they're going to work with you to ensure you're happy.

 

I am not the ony one haha

 

My email notification said that due to the demand there is only a 1 week hold period before it would be re-allocated.

 

I got my email this morning, as did several others in the FB group, sounds like this will be a big batch.

 

Still no email and have a sub-200 number, must truly be random.

Really don't understand why it is random though. When in manufacturing do you ever not make something sequentially.

Oh well, kinda getting used to the long wait!

 

I got the email this morning as well, even though I heard from the Boutique last week.

 

The OB emailed me a couple hours ago, so they received word as well that is will be in transit soon.

 

I received an e-mail from Arthur more than a month ago telling me that my watch will arrive in two weeks time. But it has been more than a month and still no call from my Omega Boutique. I even called up my OB but they are clueless about the arrival of my watch. I'm all chill and relax but I think they have a problem with the logistics. By the way, my number is 5xx.

 

Which country are you in as some countries receive bonded goods by air and some by shipping container due to security and government regulations
Know several South American countries that all bonded goods are via shipping containers.

Actually I already e-mailed Arthur on the 3rd week after not receiving it. He e-mailed me asking if I already received the watch by that time. But it's all okay, waiting is part of the game. Maybe they have a logistic problem. I check my email now and I received the email from Arthur last July 13 informing me that my watch will arrive in two weeks time.

 

Manila, Philippines. Always the last to arrive here.
Some Limited Edition models even don't show up here.

 

Good to see two mythological items in one shot !

 

Omega just found the missing ST container!




Problem is its at 5k feet deep in the Mariana trench
