Could be Time of year also,
My first order also and Just had 3 watches not received and returned to steve by the carrier. Looks like I could be waiting a long time. still have 2 watches left on order since mid last month and no QC yet.

Steve seems like a good guy and honest, he’ll keep you informed. Hope it goes well

Thank you so much for your reply.
I did enough research before I make purchase and decided to order from Steve due to people's review and great quality of QC.

I was planning to order more from him but since my first order is taking way too long, I don't know what to do in future.

I really hope everything gets sorted so I can order more from Steve.

Hello and congratulations on your purchase :)

Some watches simply take a long time to get QC pictures for, unfortunately that's just the way it is. It depends on demand and production volume.

It's completely normal and unfortunately you just have to be patient. Sometimes TD will offer you to switch to another factory or another type of watch if the waiting time is too long.
At least that is what I have experienced.

Thank you for your patience and support, non-stock styles depend on the factory's ex-factory time which is also uncertain, sometimes it is very fast and may take a long time, which is out of our TD's control. If you wish to get your watch sooner, then please prioritize the stock models, but of course if you like a particular model, it is worth the wait.
