I suspect there was a PRS-25 fest happening today!
Hopefully order secured for a gilt dial - I checked back after placing the order and at 14.02 it looked like Eddie's quota had been reached.

Uff, that was fast..but no surprise.. Fingers crossed for a glit dial.
That has to be the quickest opening and closing of a online store ever lol...
Well my first go at the new format but I think I'm in, though the cart button didn't switch for me from stating order fulfilled until 14:01 despite numerous re-freshens.
Tail end order by the looks of it with no. 1353
I think I managed to get a gilt Everest.
Anyway I saw people posting their order number and I saw #1193 and #1550: was it not supposed to be just 200 orders?
Hopefully squeaked in with a Commando, order ref 1287 on the confirmation email, so fingers crossed.
Both the Original and Gilt dialled now showing as sold out on the site. That was some burst of activity on the Everest pages.
If the system was only restricted to 200 sales then it’ll be interesting to see what the distribution is!

It's a waiting game now. I'm Order 1463 so fingers crossed
It was planned like a military operation today.
I have #1524 confirmed at 14:03 for a black dial. It's like déjà vu all over again.
Ha 1354! Fingers crossed

I thought the new platform was able to stop orders at 200 and not let anymore through , so Eddie doesn’t end up having to cancel any ?
Missed it due to me having to put my billing address in. Had everything pre saved to auto fill and that with the billing address being different to my actual address messed me up ☹️ Does that mean there are no more gilt or regular dials Eddie for the next opening? Or will you have some more available?
I hope the orders placed will be valid.
I have bought an Everest - Non gilt.
I'd hate to get an email later saying otherwise.
It would also be a pain and loads of extra work for Eddie too.
My order seem to go through all right, and is showing on the site (no. 1466), but I didn’t get an confirmation email. Should I be worried?
500+ orders in 5mins... very busy!
Looking forward to some incomings of the gilt Everest.
It’s on the way to Singapore!!

There's a thread running on Watchuseek casting doubt that I took 567 orders in 3 minutes last Sunday.
https://www.watchuseek.com/threads/s...ctors.5279096/
All the orders are numbered sequentially, the first order on Sunday was #1186 and the last order was #1752. This makes the total number of orders 566, not the 567 I stated and certainly not the 597 posted on WUS. A good number of orders are for more than one watch.
Can people post their order numbers to show that the spread of numbers bears out my statement?

Just followed the link Eddie posted and while I only skim read a few posts I would disagree with the comments from my own experience. Fairly new to this forum and TF but have been more than happy with how Timefactors work and the support I've received if and when needed.
14:02 Order #1353 for two watches
Still waiting patiently for notification of dispatch but I am 163 on the list; 'Don't Tell Him Pike'
I'm not a subsciber there but I do hope that those of us who are can go and have a word with that guy 'thegamblershand':

He doesn't think that's 'slander' - and he's correct. But it is libel.I don’t believe the numbers given out in terms of sales to be the honest amount sold.

#1309 for Everest black dial at 14:02
Order 1287, also 1402Z, PRS-47 Commando.
I love how they start the thread with: "Hey everyone, this isn’t meant to be said in a detrimental way to timefactors [...]". Then what?
From the thread OP:
"That’s good to hear... after hearing people’s thoughts and opinions I’m happy to say I have maybe been proved wrong and my initial questioning of Eddie and Timefactors was me being too presumptuous. 566 orders is a hell of a lot. I guess Eddie would do well to hire some help and manufacture more pieces. But that’s his decision to make."
Point taken
#1435 clocking in. PRS25 Gilt dial
1249 here with black dial everest.

Order #1524 confirmed, Everest black dial.
Thanks, Eddie!
This Shopify screenshot shows cart activity for the top 3 products. Although it says it covers 14 days, you all know I was only open for 3 minutes in the last 14 days. Of course, not everyone who had an item in their cart was able to complete the transaction. As well as the top 3, the "Baby" range and others also sold well with at least 20 people ordering 2 watches and one person ordered 4. I don't exaggerate the number of orders I receive.
