Overflow, so I'm waiting here in Utrecht......
I got my confirmation at 0812 so you can probably add me to the overflow list as well :-(
Postie arrived in the pouring rain very appropriate i thought but she was less than impressed can you pop me down for number 35 please! just snook in the top 40!
![]()
#008 arrived in Belgium yesterday :)
I have 21, its situated in West London.
Hmm...postman been and gone. I can only assume another person is doing the rounds with larger items...if not, it's looking like tomorrow.
It's open...I've got number 37 which is very apt as it's a birthday present for myself (will be 37)! :D
Number 33 for me in Caversham Berkshire.
Sorry chaps. Wrong fred!!

PS. JustaHunch...
I ballparked East Midlands as Rutland, but got you in the middle of a Water Reservoir, if you have a more preferred location, just shoot me any reference that will work in Google Maps. If you're cool with that, no worries!

Number 13 here in Hayes, Kent.
Cheers
Redhed18,
I belong to the last group "Its in the mail group".
I've received the SAGE confirmation e-mail at 08:57.
Does it mean the watches are going to be shipped the next days?
Regards,
Gatt
Hi Gatt
Sorry the "Its in the mail" group was just my own tongue-in-cheek list of people indicating they were expecting a shipment.
I have no official information on orders - just jotting down what people post here on the forum :)
I will rename this to "Patiently Waiting" or something...
For reference my own shipment to Canada went like this:
Ordered Oct 22, and received three emails same day from:
Sagepay = Your order from Timefactors has been processed successfully
Eddie Platts = Time Factors Confirmation Email for order...
UPS Quantum View = UPS Ship Notification
The watch was in my hands two days later. :)
My payment and order confirmed yesterday
now patiently waiting for the UPS note and delivery to Singapore [first Asian / tropical PRS 82 ? ]
I dont plan on diving with it .. even though I do quite a bit of diving out here.
48 just arrived in Manchester
A couple of hours ago my (paid) order has been canceled. Without any previous warning or request.
Explanation: wrong shipping address.
Actually, 1 (one) digit was missing from my Postcode. I replied immediately sending the right Postcode. No answer.
I understand everyone manages his company the way he wants, but this is a really weird way to deal with customers.
I'm more sad than upset.
Anyway, another customer in the waiting list will be happy now.
This isn't the full story though is it? The name on the credit card is not the name on the order and the address was incorrect. I think you'll find everyone runs their business in a way which minimises risk.
Eddie
Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".
With all respect. As I wrote to you, that is the name of my wife. And she has the same address of mine. Obviously.
This is the full story.
One email from you and everything could have been solved. One email.
Bit of an over-reaction. A little understanding of Eddie's or any other small business, and the fact that he ships these watches himself would mean you could appreciate that if someone gets an order wrong it's not the owner's responsibility, and he probably doesn't have the time, to go chasing you. I don't know of many businesses that would chase a customer, rather it's up to the customer to get their information right. Something tells me you have an unconscious tendency to get satisfaction from acting as a disgruntled customer and complaining, which in this case has prevented you from getting what you originally wanted; the watch itself.
You should know that there is probably another batch of these being released next week.

Whilst i feel for the chap from Italy having his order cancelled i'm afraid Eddie is 110% correct in his actions Our Eddie would never deliberately cancel an order without good reason perhaps an email or PM to Our host would sort out the situation.
Fifty-Threeeeeeeeee for Meeeeeeeeee
It's a beauty. Nice one Eddie :)
Hi
i rreceived an email with inside an UPS quantum view Nr at 11:00
Since then nothing change on the UPS site this implies:
