Let's all stop masking the truth.
The reason why Lucy takes so much time is that @C Master has first pick on all her sourcing...and he takes 99% of them

I seeeeeeeee! That explains the massive bottle neck for the noobs.

So in reality, Lucy actually does deliver 100 watches per week.

The problem only is that 99 pieces go to @C Master and for the single remaining piece, the NHGBR (Noob Hunger Games Battle Royale) is on!

Oh hell, yes, it's a record! Absolutely a record. 😳 No doubt.

Shortest waiting time ever with Lucy!

Kidding aside, she is notoriously slow, but will get you a nice, hand-picked piece. If you have patience for 4 or 5 years.

😆

OK, enough with the puns. Keep pinging her from time to time (but don't fill her up her inbox with 5 messages per day), go to her TD section and complain there. Highest chances that she'll see it. I don't believe she frequents the new members area much. She'll eventually get to completing your order. But you really picked the worst possible TD for speed priority. By a long shot... She has other qualities like an extremely accommodating QC service. Like it was said above: it's a TD for the experienced hardcore connoisseur, less for newbies.
Thanks. I appreciate the reply. I had just about written off the money to experience. I was starting to sound like one of those poor souls who keeps sending money on the back of a letter that tells them that just another £750 will unlock the lottery win of $30m. “It will happen this month”. But maybe, just maybe, you are telling me there’s a chance (can’t find the GIF but we all know it)

Your money is not lost.
If you ordered using the correct contact details you will get your watches, eventually, but I understand your frustration.

Drop an email asking for an update and set up a thread in her buyers review section.

ive ordered from a few tds. from my experience Jtime was my favorite td. was a bit more expensive tbh but provided the best QC and was helpful. he provided very fast shipping. Also I am picky with rehaut crown alignment on my rolex reps which is why i will stick to jtime now.

Yes thanks. The money was confirmed as received. One watch was good to go but second affected by shutdown. But this was all months ago and since then nothing. But I’ll hold tight. Thanks again 👍

Guess you'd never purchase a Gen , since that's a common flaw.

"Doing your homework" pays off.

When we tell newbies to study the reviews and then do your pick, when they ask us which TD to pick, we do not just say those things to fill up the forum with content.

Well, okay.... That too. But those words also have a some meaning behind them. 😅

It's really not a big secret that for a purchase with Lucy, you need a lot of patience and balls of iron. 10 minutes of casual reading time in her section will give you a pretty good idea of how long you MAY have to wait, but also that you will receive a perfect piece because she goes that extra mile (for which she needs a lot of time 😁)...

While I respect Lucy and her skill, I would not recommend her to someone new. She would drive him crazy with the wait...

...and the guy will be posting desperate threads all over the forum 😂

OP, I understand that you want to minimize your risks but this is an answer you will have to find yourself over time through multiple purchases.


PS: and please, don't ask which factory makes the best 1:1 AAA+Swiss
PS2: that's @C Master
I'm glad this thread mentioned that Lucy, while a very detail minded TD, is not for everyone. Patience is certainly important, and more so with her. I just don;t have enough patience for her. Personal issues aside, life happens, for me personally there are other TDs that seem to provide excellent service in under a year.

Just to let you know I’ve received my Santos and my GF over the moon. Hopefully the Deep Sea of same quality. One down, one to go! Thanks again 👍🏽

Seems to me that every noob should read through the new posts section at least once before he even thinks about ordering from a TD. I snagged a sweet little bluesy for a song yesterday. It’ll be here in a few days and no waiting on QC pics.
