For this pre order you need to pay immediately?
Or wait with the payment until they are ready to ship?

 

[Bonesey]

You only secure a piece when you've paid.

Ordered and paid btw I think only 200 in this first batch because of movement limitations so get them quick.

 

[trailboss99]

No bloody way! I'm waiting for V2 at least.

 

[Bonesey]

What flaws do you see that warrants a v2?

opcorn:

Please NOTE: We do NOT have an accurate release date at the moment, so please consider before placing the pre-order, we will announce the release date in about one week time. The wait could be less than one month or more than one month depends on different situations, I will explain more on the forums later.


Happy to collect the cash but no idea of release date:facepalm:

 

[trailboss99]

And this surprises you because . . . ?

 

[sharrkey]

Doesn't surprise me at all has become the normal now, I just don't agree with it!

This is the art of marketing!
They sell it the same way Apple is selling their new releases. Even better!
They were building suspense for the whole year showing the parts of the watch.
Now they're collecting money from the fanboys! If puretime had a PureStore physically there would be queues standing in front of it for the whole month!

But come on guys. If the only limitation is the asian eta movement there will be more stock very soon

 

[Tonyy]

I agree with TB. I'm not shelling out money until I see a true finished product and not a mock up.

I don't mind waiting.

 

[Alex_P1]

Bang, and sold out!

Looks like it'll be V2 for me, I snoozed and loosed...

 

[sharrkey]

Over 300 pre orders not bad at all, I did read a post on Repgeek that gave me a little chuckle:hehehe:

300 pre-orders for 200 units? How does that work... Or do I know already!?

Could it have been this one:

Yeah, i dont believe that for a second. Notice we haven't heard for Angus for at least 12 hours..... He is probably too busy getting himself off watching real time sales on his computer. I can see it now:

Angus is in his private office down the hall from accounting. He is got his laptop on and he's looking at the sales figures in real time.

"Jesus Christ'' he thinks to himself as his eyes gaze at upon the numbers. Suddenly finding himself aroused, trousers drop to ankles. Angus shuffles over to lock the office door. In a hushed voice he moans, "Oh god, oh god, 420 orders in 15 hours......oh god" Clicking refresh and, "f-ck me, 218 payments confirmed....oh god.".

While thrashing away, he quickly calculates that these confirmations don't even include PayPal payments, echecks or WU.

"F-ck!!!", he thinks, "I am on pace to hit $60,000 plus in gross black bay sales alone in one day. F-ck!! think I am going to cum''. Splat!!! "Jesus, where did I put the tissues".

After tidying up, Angus calls his chauffer to let him know that it is "Time to hit the bars and celebrate mutherf-ckers!!!!!"

If he is a true gentleman, he might even call ZF to see when they are going to get that Pelagos rolling!!!!

It's normal to oversell or overbook a pre-order. Of the 300 orders placed, many won't pay. Othesr that pay may want refunds. You need to take enough orders to ensure that you can ship the 200 units promised. It's possible that a couple of people get f-cked, but (more likely) Angus has more than 200 to sell. A little faux exclusivity never hurt a buying bandwagon. The guy definitely knows what he's doing. He had us to the point where we are begging him to take our $310 dollars for a product that's not even close to being finished if we want to be honest. I bought this as a birthday present for myself (February) since I know there isn't a snowball's chance in hell he is going to ship it before Christmas.

There has to be more than 200 pieces. Maybe only 200 were allocated to PT but I'm sure the other TDs will get some as well. Watch companies in China don't produce anything in less than 500 pieces so while the movement may be limited, it shouldn't be limited for long as there are at least 3 different manufacturers of 2824 clones. Angus is a great marketing guy, one of the best in the business...

 

[straycat]

Paid and confirmed. I've been tempted to pull a trigger on a gen for over a year now. Can't be bothered waiting any longer. I don't care if it's not perfect just send me the damn watch already! I'm counting on you for this watch Angus.
