    That’s strange

    Maybe I’ve got a dodgy link to it?!

    Thanks for letting me know - not working for me. How strange.

    I’m still not getting an option to buy. Maybe the site traffic is very high or something.

    Not having tried to purchase on the site before I take it that when it is open you then get the option to buy whatever you are after?

    I opened the shopping cart, then when it said:

    “Your cart is currently empty”

    I chose

    “continue shopping”

    and then it let me add items.

    That's correct. When you open the item's page there will be an "add to cart" button. I just accessed the site from the link at the top of this page and it appeared to still be open as I was able to add a strap and remove it.

    Thanks. Tried that as well. Also tried safari instead of chrome, but still nothing. I’ll try again later and see.

    I couldn’t see the add to cart button against the straps I wanted, but I was able to get it to work using the method described above. Strange.

    Thanks, it wasn't until I opened the site on Huawei store the the 'add to store option came up.

    Ordered a Baby Dreadnought, a bit different and a rugged watch for normal use, funny thing is I didn't like it when I first saw it.

    I just placed an order at 19.38 for a Nato to go with the watch I ordered at 14.03. There seems to have only been 37 orders placed in the time between my orders.

    Well, that was a very pleasant surprise! I just ordered five straps on a Sunday evening. Reminds me of the halcyon days when the shop was always open.

    Thanks Eddie

    Wow, they were the days when you could just order a PRS-29 because you fancied it….

    Maybe people had better things to do at 14:00 on a Sunday?

    Wow, just ordered 2 straps at 9.15 pm. The luxury of an open store at this hour. Amazing!

    As I understand it, it stays open until the maximum number of orders Eddie can deal with is reached. As there aren't any new releases then maybe ordering volumes are down.

    With no new stock, ordering was slower and therefore open for longer. A number of customers reported problems when using Chrome, I'm not sure why because Chrome worked for me.

    Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".

    Chrome was fine for me too Eddie. These glitches do happen. Anyway, get off the forum and get my straps posted ;)

    I actually came on to see if there were any alternatives for the TF braided Nato... hadn't even checked the store, just assumed i had missed the opening window. Saw this thread and placed an order with no issues just now!
