7/4/24: paid $50 deposit for pre-oder, gave my info, and waited
7/12/24: received QC photos and videos

9/24/24: Watch Arrived!!!

it's unfortunate that the process took so long (while it seemed so seamless for other people), but I do really appreciate Ctime for being very professional about it and made the whole process easy
