1. Payment successful on 1st September
2. Email acknowledged payment and updated my order status to processing 4th September

Email at ordering sets out timelines of 4-12 days

Today is 11th September so sent email just to enquire on the progress of QC pics. Very quick response from Andrew highlighting that VSF Factory is only releasing watches once every 2 weeks so they have delays to their timelines.

I followed up asking what that means from my QC pics timeline (Assuming that my order would at least be in his hands by the 14th or possibly 18th?)...But no reply on that one.

Will keep you updated

Andrew responded promptly again...relied that "we will have to wait for the next batch, which is expected to be this week or next."

So need to cool down...relax

Still waiting for QC pics...unsure if the model I picked (PO 39.5mm) is particularly harder to get? Emailed today to get an update so...hey ho, my wait continues.

Just so I keep the thread updated...got my QC pics yesterday. Look great. Just waiting on tracking now ..

This gives me a little bit of hope...I placed my order in mid Sept and the last message was just a vague one saying the factor shut down to avoid raids and haven't heard anything since but maybe/hopefully they're just backlogged.

What did you order? Apparently my order 39.5 PO was a little more unusual. Got tracking now but nothing much has changed in 3/4 days as I think it is moving through the system and probably won't trigger anything until Royal mail receive it. ... hopefully after the weekend it will start to appear on the radar.

Anyone got experience of how long delivery should take...got tacking details on 8th ...but website is saying they are expecting my order. That is 7 days...

Anyone aware of timescale after they dispatch obviously goes through China and then UK customs before tracking becomes active I imagine?

I had a similar experience with my first order (I'm in the US)...it said they were expecting the package for ~10 days with no tracking updates but then it hit LA and started updating and took ~ another 7 days for me to receive it. I'm guessing it will probably be similar/maybe a little longer (I don't know all of the specifics but it sounds like they have to use some kind of weird triangle shipping for Europe)
