I reached out to Andrew and asked if the rumor was true that he had a few "new old stock" Daytona 116500 noob v4's still in stock. He was quick (4 hours) to reply to my email and said that "I have these but they are limited in stocks". I emailed back saying I'd like to buy one, and he instructed me to do the purchase on his website. I did so and selected crypto for checkout. Within minutes of checking out I got another email with instructions on the wallet address on where to send tokens. (He accepts both BTC and USDT). I sent my funds in BTC and as soon as the transaction posted to the blockchain, I emailed him with the hash of the block in which my transaction was included. He took less than a minute to confirm the funds were received. So far so good. I'll update with progress on the delivery. But so far, Andrew has been very responsive. I'm impressed.

Andrew emailed me QC photos 3 hours ago. I'm impress with the quick turn around. I assume the speed was because he had the watch on hand since it's "new old stock" rather than an order from a factory. Here's a link to the album.

Update: Andrew just sent me tracking information. Shipping time is estimated at 14 days which seems reasonable from China to Canada. So far the time from my order going through (Sept 8th) to shipping information sent (Sept 15th) has been almost exactly one week. I suspect this quick turn around is due to Trusty Time having literally having had the item I ordered "in stock" which is unusual in the rep world. Nonetheless, I'm impressed with Andrew's speed of execution. Now I just have my fingers crossed that there are no issues with the package through customs.

Update: Order arrived today (technically last night). Very impressed with the speed of the transaction. Only 14 days from order confirmation to delivery. But this is a somewhat exceptional situation since Andrew had the watch I ordered "in stock" and didn't need to order it from the factory. There were no problems with customs (both China export and Canada import). The declaration slip stated the contents as "measurement instrument" which is technically correct (the best kind of correct). Looking forward to order my next rep, and I'm certain that it'll be from Andrew at Trusty Time.
