Nothing in spam either.

Eddie stated that he had received 661 orders (message sent after 1430)
He also stated that the system had over-sold by:
~ 69x Everest blacks
~ 11x Everest 40mm, and
~ 8x Air Ministry.
So that 661 - (8 + 11 + 69) = 573
I assumed £325 per watch (I know the AM and Willard are both a touch more expensive, but there were only very few AM left in stock), so:
573 x 325 = 186,225
&
573 x 10 = 5,730
Tempus non expectat virum et aestus.
Eddie also posted:
"Ordering opened at 1400 hrs UK time today and closed at 1430 hours. Ordering will re-open when all 661 orders received have been shipped and notification will be sent out via the mailing list. Quite a few of the orders are multi-watch orders and they take longer to pack, I estimate that there could be 40 days shipping to clear all the orders."
I changed the font colour concerning multiple watch orders.
There were 661 orders but there's really no way to know how many watches were ordered, especially because at least one person ordered only straps, further confounding the issue.
Those who ordered the Baby Willard are in for a treat to explain I had the watch sitting on My bedside table it had been exposed briefly to daylight yet at 5.25AM I looked at the dial and I was still with My 50 years + eyes,to tell the time this was around 9 hours after a brief exposure to sunlight to Me that's utterly incredible.
I'm a bit confused now as to what emails I have received.
I have the email from sage pay but also an email which looks to have come from eddie platts - timefactors email confirmation email for order ref.xxxx
would this be the email from romancart that is being discussed or something different ?
You are both correct.
Thoes are the 2 email's you get.
I might also add the money that's been taken from you're account may be released back to that account and re-taken when the order ships. So don't panic if you see you're bank balance come back up because it doesn't mean the order has been cancelled.
It happened to me on my last purchase. Just make sure that you don't spend it lol. Sent from my SM-N960F using TZ-UK mobile app
So I've just got a message that my order didn't make it in time. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
I suppose the next batch of Eversts will be available no sooner than next year, right?

That's an incredible pace! But now I'm starting to shake a bit in my boots. Sagepay email at 1403 and RC email at 1405. For the 36mm Black Everest.
Real bummer got an email from Eddie my order didn't make it this time :(
Yes I did from Eddie and Sagepay that my orders & paymnet has went through, then this morning saw an email from Eddie to tell my order has been cancelled, I was really disappointed despite been waiting for over 4 mth, and I don't think the next order will be this year.
On Sunday I got my order in at 1408, the site was not accessible till 1402, I don't know how much more quicker I need to be..... 6 mins all gone insane...
WOW....that's just insane, it looks like anybody could get the order cancelled even if their order went through immediately after 2pm, I got both emails through at 14.02pm but who knows what will happen.
Ordering was unprecedented on Sunday. To put it into context, the value of orders received in that 30 minute window exceeded my entire annual turnover 8 years ago.
Eddie
Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".
That's both amazing and terrifying at the same time. But overall, a huge success!
I'm just really hopeful that we'll get some additional possibilities this year to snag the Everest. I can only imagine, but it probably gets harder and harder each time for you to meet the demand, and in timely manner, Eddie.
Just got the UPS email. Shocked at how fast the turnaround is, I was expecting a few weeks. Should be on my wrist tomorrow before lunch!
My order ends **7644 so maybe tomorrow I'll get the dispatch notice. I can't remember ever looking forward as much to getting a watch as I am about the 36mm PRS-25.
Thanks 👍 I'm 641 so crossing everything for tomorrow
*8182. Didn't realize I was so pokey.
I know that means a lot of work for you Eddie but congrats and well done. This just shows how good your watches are and such great value. I didn't get an order in for the new dial version of the Everest but congrats to all who did. I am saving my pennies for the Navigator which might be available by the time the store is open again, fingers crossed.
Excellent news, particularly in the current climate. Even the disappointed purchasers received a little cardio workout for their efforts.
