Black Bay Black stock out?

[vincentvega01]

I placed an order with my go-to TD for a Black Bay Black. Prior to placing the order we exchanged emails and he confirmed that the watch was available. Today he notified me that the maker has sold out of the current batch.

My question is has anyone else recently run into this with the Black Bay Black? How long between batch production?

The TD can refund me but since I've already paid the $15 WU fee I'd much rather wait for new stock on the watch.

I think there is one for sale here m2m . Probably save a few bucks that way as well .

I hope they are running out because they are moving to the new one with riveted bracelet and shield logo!

I hope they will come back in stock. I've checked with several TD's and it does seem they are out of stock for the current batch. Even if they do update the BBN to the newer style I hope they still make a few runs of the older style as well.

Does the factory still have stock of black bay red/burgundy?

 

[vincentvega01]

Yes. Both Marvelous and Chazingtime confirmed that the red is still available.

I received the black bay blue from chazingtime not long ago, amazing watch. not sure why I didn't consider it sooner. modernized version of a tudor classic (the blue tudor submariner).
I don't think the new riveted bracelet looks very nice, seem they are trying to hard on the vintage looks with that.

I orderd the Black Bay Black beginnig of June ... paid and waited 2 weeks before I requested an order-update ...
Was told they wait for the new Batch as the watch is currently sold out ...
That took me another 2 weeks of waiting and it was still not available ...
So I choosed to get a refund and asked the TD to notify me when stock is available again ...
Re-sent my request beginning this week and got the answer "It´s available in limited quantity" ...

but I strongly believe this answer will turn into a "sorry out of stock again" after my payment ... so I quit.

To be honest I find that unless the watch has been out of production from the factory the answer will always be "in stock". Even if they are waiting for the next batch from the factory.
That's one reason I prefer using PP, any cancelled orders and refunds I get refunded the exact amount I paid and don't lose any money due to exchange rate changes and service fees.

Hello.

I have ordered a Black Bay Black from intime, despite having already read this thread. So I will let you know the progress.

Payment was received earlier today (1st July) at 9:37am

Intime sent me an email to say they have ordered stock from the factory which usually takes 3-5 working days.

We'll see what happens.

Any update [MENTION=110690]Tayste[/MENTION] ?
I checked back with Chazingtime yesterday. The reply came last night. Still out of stock on the Black Bay Black (Red Triangle)

I must be lucky, my dealer managed to get me 1 of the BB black, telling me that factory is all out of stock now.

Good for me since I dont like the new design of the dial with the shield logo and I can foresee that factories are making that instead of the current BBs.

I was trying to decide between black and blue today. Sounds like blue was the right decision. Hopefully there are a few of those left

Not heard anything further yet.

As for deciding between black and blue, I was in a similar spot. Except I considered the red too. I really like the red one but in the end I guess red isn't what I'm looking for in a watch. The blue is more 'me', particularly the silver on the hands and markers. Blue is probably my favourite colour, especially dark blues.

But in the end the black bay black is what I envision in a watch. Im really into the faded yellow text with gold hands and markers. And the case isnt gold

 

[beastie456]

Still out of stock. I'm assuming that there is another updated version in the works but I prefer the "smiley face" and Tudor Rose rather than shield.

 

[JungleJim88]

I don't think the blue is in stock either. Ordered last week and haven't heard anything back yet. Had to send my gen SMPc back to Omega for warranty work so I'm anxious to get it

Yep I checked in with Chazingtime yesterday and they confirmed that it's still stocked out

Same here. Ordered the blue 2 weeks ago from Sead but nothing yet.

I received QC pics from Intime yesterday for the Black Bay Black. Looks good! It is the design with the curvy text and Tudor Rose.
