    I did manage to snag a few for myself and my son and one spare - I got the notification in the middle of the day Monday, and ordered.

    Got an email Tuesday that they can't ship to my UPS Store mailbox where I've paid for a box for the past 19 years, and it's also my CC billing address and my verified and confirmed PayPal address. I got this box so someone can sign for my packages and not have them stolen off my front porch, as well as have patients send medical record releases after I retired without giving them my home address.

    The Tuesday email said that if I couldn't give them my home address they were going to cancel the order. I called them Immediately and gave them my home address and asked them to ship it via Postal Service, since I have a locking Postal mailbox with a bigger box that the mailman can place packages and put the key in my personal mailbox. They said it would ship DHL but use Postal to make the final delivery.

    On Wednesday I get an email with tracking from FedEx that it will be delivered next day by 8PM Thursday, which means now I can't leave the freaking house all day, or risk having 3 of these watches disappear from my front porch. Maybe my Ring doorbell will scare off porch pirates...

    I got one of these but they are seriously overpriced. Specially the color ones.

    I got the black silhouette Mickey

    Love that second one down where he's holding up the 2! First Mickey watch I've seen I would be confident of wearing.

    Hi
    Thanks a lot @leatherstrap for having a proper look at the watch. It looks really big in the picture, and I cannot/do not want to wear bigger than Speedmaster size.
    And maybe a bit expensive with a chinese movement?

    I bought my daughter a Timex Mickey Mouse watch, it actually looks like Mickey and cost a fraction of the Swatch one.

    This was a gift to me from family, so i do not know where it came from. Has a Japanese quartz inside. It wears well.
