Latest email from Timefactors is that the lug gap is 20mm.

I really want one of these having followed the development for years now but I'm off on holiday in a few days and I don't want to order and sweat on where it is while I'm away.
Bugger.
But from this very thread...https://www.timefactors.com/products...n-timer-prs-56
Note the "22.0x18.0mm" for the bracelet.The movements have arrived.

In other words, unless Eddie has had a last minute redesign, it looks like the lugs probably are 22mm and the timefactors.com website has just got the wrong lug width.
Itching to get one of these, but don't fancy my chances on Sunday. Out of interest, does anyone know if TF accept American Express?
Thanks
I see that Eddie or Dave have corrected the website: It now shows 22mm lugs. :-)
I emailed the gaffer for clarification,

Ah, well done. :-)

I am not sure why you couldn't take my word for it. I did have all 3 versions for a few days. All cleared up now anyhow.
I picked the wrong time to pop out, didn't I...

Well I thought you were right - you actually had them in your hand.
P.S. great review

Good luck to everyone timing their mission today. I wish for all going for one to have quick and snappy internet; may your fingers be even quicker and snappier.
Success!
all 3 types available 4 minutes after store opening
Yes, I have an order confirmation email for a SS bezel.
Me too, I think. Confirmation Email received, anyhow.
:) Same old centre minutes fan club!
Did you go ss or ceramic Dave?
Cheers,
Ben

Well if the confirmation email means I was successful then a ceramic bezel is on its way!
Got a confirmation email for the ceramic bezel, order completed about 2 minutes past the hour. I hope you all had similar success!
Ten past and they are all still showing, is it really just the three handers that people get frothy about.
Was going for stainless, then changed to ceramic last minute! Anyway, order confirmed so ceramic it is..
Touché
Bloody Commander to wait for now...

Well, the PRS-29As and PRS-29AMs that were in stock have sold out, so perhaps so.
Perhaps chrono buyers are weird outliers! ;-)
I was going to buy a Sinn EZM at one time- glad I didn't now. No DLC, no date, smaller, thinner & cheaper- Perfect! Thanks Eddie.
It wouldn't be the first time I've been spoken of in such terms. Store finally closed 14:17.
I had the clumsiest possible experience. But it came with a happy ending, much to my surprise…
- Added to cart
- The site then requested my log in details (I thought I was signed in already. Oops.)
- then I had to click that I was not a robot, after which I ham-fistedly selected numerous images of buses from a matrix
- then I manually entered my credit card details: long number, expiry, security code etc (I thought these were already saved to my laptop. Oops. Again.)
- finally the pay now button - phew. All done in 1m 45s - felt somewhat longer I have to say.
I went for the ceramic.
I've ditched all my chrono's but thought the Mission timer might just scratch an itch..

Nope :-(
Excellent news! And long since suspected.
Same here, I had everything ready but Revolut declined the transaction and I had to go through some hoops to get it completed. Done in 5-6 minutes, was surprised to see the store still open at around 14:15. Went for the SS bezel by the way, it looks monolithic.
Neither, DLC for me. It just looks too good not to, and is different from all my other Centre Minute chronos (umm, err, all 5 of them).
Darn it. Forgot the store was open today.
I'm very interested in the stainless steel bezel so looking forward to the real world opinions.

I'm sure there'll be more available at the next opening.
One can hope...

Hey everyone.
Yes they’ll be some available next opening.

Excellent, I did something so dumb and missed it.
Out of interest, what was the breakdown between the three types sold?
Ceramic Bezel sold quickest, DLC then stainless. There wasn’t too much between them.

Thanks.
This gives me some hope!
If anyone has a DLC one they don't' bond with in the meantime....
Sunnie
Any who "really" want these they better get them at the next opening because the PRS-40 Chrono reorder has already been delayed so god knows when these will be coming round again. I can easily see them trading well above cost. I saw a report about China that in some areas they are closing down factories (for x days of the week) in order to keep supplying energy to the domestic sector.
THIN is the new BLACK
