Really great to see the sub hour open time and demand Eddie.
As others have said - health first, watches second.
However, if I can tease a little, glad to see you are learning from the steel sport Rolex supply and demand model :-)

I was refreshing back and forth frantically from 13:52pm. I managed to get straight into the shop when it opened bang on 14:00pm.
But due to my bank being such a pain, my order didn't go though until 14:10pm.
I've worked out that Eddie was recieving around 4 orders a minute, so my order would be around order number 40.

I've been testing this model out for Eddie and I can honestly say this is the best TF watch ever.
I've hardly worn anything for the last two months.
It's been swimming, fishing, motorbiking and more.
It's been worn with suits, t-shirts, jumpers and nothing at all.
It looks best (imho) on a brown perlon but it works on pretty much anything.
I know two people who have bought one after seeing mine ("mine"? Yeah, about that: Eddie, it might need a more extended test, not sure about it long-term, etc etc. Hahahah.)
You know what to do. ;-)
Unless you don't like a perfectly-proportioned, legible, robust, accurate, versatile, tasteful, timeless classic. In which case, this isn't for you.
Well, mine has just arrived.....more to follow

Any real life pics ?

I've not bought one yet, I was busy Sunday but your pictures and enthusiasm for it has made it go from that's quite nice to I think I want need one.
Thanks....I think!
Looking forward to seeing some pictures of it in the 'wild'
Well I've got to say Eddie you have certainly knocked it out of the park this time.
Unbelievable.
Thanks.

WOW,that just looks everything i hoped it would be.You must be delighted with it.My order went through at about 7 minutes past 2 on Sunday so i guess Eddie will get to mine late this week according to the large number of orders he got.
very nice, not too flash and size looks good to me
It really is as great a looking timepiece on the wrist as it was in all of the pre-sale pictures. The rivets on the bracelet add a subtle extra dimension to it and the clasp is the perfect size for the overall look, though my wrist may need a trim to appreciate it fully. The crown functioned smoothly and the second hand is quite mesmerising against the light background.
Delighted I certainly am.
That's looking pretty good.

That looks fantastic, I got my order in very early but will have to wait three weeks before I get home and try it out, bleeding work always gets in the way...

That still looks blooming perfect! Nice to hear such positive comments too. I like riveted bracelets, real or not, so it’s good to know they look subtlety good in real life.
I really, really must make sure I’m not at any family do/shopping (except for watches)/walking the dog/or in-fact, anything at all, when the shop reopens!

Shipping may have to slow down for a few days, it looks like I came back to work too early. Woke up this morning with backache and a killer sore throat.
I managed to ship to normal levels for 2 days but it was too much, better to slow down than put myself out of action altogether.
Apologies for the delay.

Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".
No rush Eddie!

Best to rest and take it easy Eddie.
Hope you feel much better soon.

Quick snaps, on Model 2 Worn and Wound
All the best Eddie, thanks for shipping such a great watch so quickly when clearly not well

Suits a brown strap
This and the white Everest look outstanding. I was only going to buy the black Everest as I already have a white dial Seiko SARB but I’m tempted by a white dial TF watch too. The white Everest on a strap could be quite dressy I think, not as much as the SARB but I want something a tad more casual.
That tan strap on the Expedition looks superb.

Received my conformation of despatch today so looking forward to receiving mine tomorrow 😀
The 16 mm taper is lovely on the bracelet and unlike the studs, but for for me it's made for leather

Looks superb on the leather strap.
Had a feeling that these white dials were going to end up in the "both" category rather than "either/or" ... Damn ... :-)
For those who have taken delivery... any qualms with the size of the rivets on the bracelet? Do they protrude as much as images suggest? Might they catch on things?
Thanks!
Not trying to massage the Boss's ego but I think its utterly fantastic that given Eddie's health issues He's delivered 2 new outstanding timepieces quickly very impressed by the Expedition particularly.
