I did initially but wound up canceling the order to buy something else that came up. I do think these are beautiful though. I would buy the one in cali, but seller shows ship here $50 + customs. If someone here buys it and wants to ship to me I will reimburse.
Edit: It is now up to $100, more than I would pay for the vintage version.

Wow, this went for $152! Considering that in their day these were low-end watches, that is pretty amazing.watchpalooza wrote: ↑Sat Jun 06, 2020 4:53 am If anyone who went in on this wants to pick up the original to match, Olde Town Jewelers in Santa Rosa norcal has this: https://www.ebay.de/itm/293596623016

Recieved, and responded to a message this morning asking for a shipping address. Looks like some are starting to roll out.

Question for those who have already received your Wolbrook... did you receive tracking info prior to delivery or did it just show up at your doorstep one day?

Got notification from DHL about a shipment about a day before getting the email from Wolbrook.
Both emails were a few days before it arrived.

Still waiting for shipment notification but I also ordered the BoR bracelet so the whole thing will arrive later.

Didn't know of a better place to put this. Someone on reddit is selling their mechaquartz version. Asking $195, which seems fairly reasonable to me if you missed out. They are now 199 EUR on the website.
I wish that watch were 38mm?

Woot woot. I am guessing you ordered an extra bracelet as well? That's why mine was shipped in a later batch.

No, unfortunately I didn’t add a bracelet but I went with the “professional” model which were shipping out last.pdsf wrote: Woot woot. I am guessing you ordered an extra bracelet as well? That's why mine was shipped in a later batch.
Let me know what you think when you get it. I’m totally a bracelet guy but am going to give this expansion look a try first.
