Thats why I get things delivered to my work address...Just 9 hours of work now until I can go home and fondle !
Ordered on Sun at 12:01, got a call from the missus this morning at 08:00 :
"A Package has arrived from Sheffield . . . from a Mr Platts"
Now that is a speedy delivery.
Just 9 hours of work now until I can go home and fondle !

I have a late start today but not received anything yet. Im interested to know what number I got :lol:
I reckon mine must be the first to hit.
It couldn't possibly have arrived any sooner.
:lol:
I dont have to leave for work until 11am so the postman has been and ive taken delivery of my PRS3 #3.
Heres a few real quick pics, also an added extra which I wasnt expecting in the box, Cheers Eddie :lol:
:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
Postie has been and nothing for me today, hopefully tomorrow.
Did you guys that have received watches get despatch notes yesterday?
Be aware that due to the fastidious way Eddie packs the watches it will take him a while to get through all the orders - my PRS50LE took a week to arrive, some people got them after a couple of days...
Got mine, #7/50. Blue. No pics yet but it's good, lads. It's heavy and good. It needs a link taking out for my wrist so it'd fit an 8" wrist easily.
I was surprised to find the blue bezel is metallic. The AR works really well. Bezel and dial colour match until you angle it into the sunlight (such as we have on this rainy morning) when the bezel glows.
Crown and setting work smoothly.
Whilst it isn't of major importance to me the bezel doesn't quite line up on the 12, always a danger with a 60-click one. The bezel is smoother in operation than the one on the 18Q.
The extra U-boat quartz was quite a surprise; made me laugh. Nice one Eddie, thanks.
I did get a dispatch note yesterday.
Thought I would try it on the only 22mm Nato I have,
I might put the Orange strap on the Submersible u boat style watch, which is a whopper at 55mm inc the crown.

I'm not as think as you drunk I am.
So the first 'in the wild' pictures are out there! Looks fantastic, I must say. especially on that NATO.
Now that 55mm quartz is quite something..
A quick question. Did you guys get an order conformation from Timefactors when you placed your orders on Sunday?
I placed my order but didn’t receive any conformation
:scratch: :scratch:
You should have received an email from sagepay and one from Eddie Platts.
When Eddie sends them he sends a despatch note email.
Check your spam folder.
Looks superb :D
Eagerly awaiting my blue one... no dispatch notice received yet though :(
Nothing for me :( but I did leave home at 7am.
Scared to phone the wife to see "...if a parcel has arrived..." I am trying to keep this one under wraps !
I guess I will just have to wait and see.
Saying that, i didn't erceive a dispatch email but did get an Eddcie confirmation at 12:03pm on Sunday :D
Good to see the first couple appearing in the wild. I didn't get my order in until Monday morning, so I suspect mine won't arrive until the end of the week at the earliest, but rather looking forward to it now! Haven't had a bright coloured dial for a while now and it'll be nice to have something cheery on the wrist.

Skating away on the thin ice of a new day
My first post.
Congratulations to all the new owners, as usual they look even better 'on the wrist'.
It was my Birthday on Sunday (a BIG one) and I had been waiting for these for ages having missed out on other limited editions for various reasons, particularly the Dreadnought and vowed it wouldn't happen again.
So, what happened at 1200 ? I sat there and couldn't make up my mind on the colour ..........................................for 24 hours :drunken:
I am officially a moron............. :cry:
Wow Dreadnought - you must be the longest of lurkers!! Did you get a PRS3 in the end?Originally Posted by Woodruff

Bu**er!
Orange #4/50 arrived 20 minutes ago ...
I was little confused as I saw the other watch first when opening the case!
Quick and dirty wrist shot (I haven't attempted to resize the bracelet ...)
Maybe Eddie is processing one colour a day... Orange yesterday...
Blue next monday....Originally Posted by Jonmurgie

grrrrr... arrrrrgg!!Originally Posted by mr1973
As I said on the last page, my Blue came today. #7. Can't get pics out just now though, annoyingly.
Received a delivery this morning.... of a card from the postman to say he "tried" to deliver a Special Delivery package. He couldn't have tried very hard, because I was at home :evil:
Never mind. I'll pick it up on the way into town tomorrow. Nice to see some pics of those that have arrived though ;)
That looks wonderful. I like the new wider bezel and the dual indication on it, works!Originally Posted by gee-whizz

Costume jewellery. Ouch!!!
Still awaiting my dispatch email nevermind the watch :(
I dare you to ring him and ask!! :lol:Originally Posted by Jonmurgie
'All good things come to those that wait' and judging by the photos, the PRS3 looks very good indeed. Looking forward to the first on-wrist photo of a black LE...
Need pics of blue - alas I won't have mine in hand till end Oct :cry: :bounce:
blue #25/50 arrived at it's port of call............. :twisted:
oooh, you lucky man !Originally Posted by Jeroen
I hope mine is at home when I get there :D
You know what comes next !
PHOTOS PLEASE :D
Wow!! Those pics are amazing!! The watch case looks amazing! I love the way it looks on the wrist. The Orange dial is very nice! As usual they look way better in the wild then in the professional photos.
Looks great with the Nato or the bracelet 8)
I am drooling :compress: :colors: :thumbleft:
You guys in the UK are lucky!! I have to say I like the hand set better in real life as well.

Where are pictures of the blue version?
Where's my blue one?!! :twisted:
I had a despatch email yesterday....got home in eager anticipation...I've been stuck in a meeting all day and not been able to phone home...asks the Missus "Has the postie been?"
"ooo yes",she says,"but i was just sitting down for a coffee so i ignored the doorbell.Here's the card he stuck through the door."
.
.
.
currently not on speaking terms. :evil:
^^^^ :shock:
Call the lawyers, people have died for less!

Now come on lads, need to see some more pics! You can't still be at work :twisted:
Anyone received the black dialed one yet, love to see a shot of it.
OK,ok,ok............. one quick and dirty shot... (bezel not aligned, lighting is crap....)
Now you're just showing off Jeroen :twisted:
Thanks for the photo, it looks great, I can't wait for mine.
Nothing when I got home, not even a visiting card from the postie !
...but, got my dispatch email from Eddie through. Hopefully it will get here tomorrow.
Just need to persuade the wife to hang around home (I should have had it delivered to my work address :roll: )
Yellow #4 has safely arrived.
Perfectly sized watch.
It's adjusted and on now as I watch the Darts on Sky.
Absolutely smitten.
Martin.
Blue 4 here - the bracelet was a PITA to adjust, but now its on my wrist it loks great. Nice and solid and a god size.
My advice is to take the bracelet off the head before unscrewing links.
Much easier.
Cheers,
Martin.

Pics later as I've been doing some pond work while waiting for it to arrive.
Eddie, you will definitely break some hearts around here if you don't do another blue series.
Is that size a special order? :)Originally Posted by cmcm3
My blue is at the Post Office...
Well - if the watch fits... :lol:Originally Posted by Jaunty
