This could take a while at times. Did you verify with Elliot that what you ordered was in stock?

Good point - I did not verify with Elliot, but figured VSF submariner no date and Cartier Santos shouldn't be too long of a wait (at least the submariner shouldn't be).

Not rushing of course - just providing updates when I remember to!

I wore my VSF Sub I got from Elliot tonight. It's an extremely popular watch, so they sell fast, and supply is slow to the dealers most of the time. I'd ping him on WhatsApp or Telegram to see if it was in stock or he had to order. If he had to order from the factory, you're probably in a line. It's an interesting process, but you'll end up with it on your wrist soon enough :)

Thanks ! That's a great idea. I'll shoot him a message later. Great to hear you got a VSF sub too - how do you like it?

I have a 124060 and a 126610 LN from VSF, you will be blown away at the quality and how they wear very comfortable on the wrist for a 41mm watch.

I have a gen 126610 so it was great to compare and it's so close it's unreal

I have just got a gen sea dweller 2 tone a few days ago so might try a clone of that and see how it compares
