Another Quick update:
Not sure if I mentioned it before. The first batch of production is going to be about 30 watches ( I have been pushing for 50, but I don't have the answer yet).
(Delivering in about 30 days)
When I send the "payment" email to everyone, the first to pay will get in on the first batch. I really don't know how else to make it fair. I can't supply everyone at once. So some will have to wait an additional 30 days (approximately of course, we are dealing with Germany
)
The second batch will be approximately 30 days later.
I am currently waiting for the "Quantity" that can be supplied for the first batch. Then the email will go out. I take Paypal, and Credit cards (for those of you without a paypal account)
I will post the "number" once I know it

Like 1-30 first, etc? No.
They can supply X amount of watches on the first batch.
I pick the numbers. (based on who pays I guess, I don't know how else to make it fair)
I think it is a matter of supply with the ETA movements.
So if I say, send me number 6 (
), 12, 24, 33, etc, that is what I will get first.

OK, I'm fueled up..
Here are some more pics, since I can't stop looking at the damn thing
First pic, you can kinda see the texture to the dial. So Cool!
Black second hand...white tip.....hmmm
YUMMMMMY
some pics the hands and redline look a tad bit off in color. But they are the same.
It's just the pic.
The hands, redline, and exclamation background are exactly the same superlumi.
Custom made for this piece
Not blowing smoke, they made the color.

I think it is better to have 30 people get their watches that they reserved.

I could be mean and show it with the white second hand 
Email going out tonight about 6pm PST time.
30 of you will have your watch in about a month. (RKD and James are included in the 30).
I will post on this thread when the payments have been received, and the first batch is spoken for.
Then I will do the same on the next batch.
Hope everyone is happy with this process, I just don't know what else to do.

Since there was less controversy about the back, the numbered backs have probably been done for some time now.
Selecting the numbers (if Laco will cooperate) for the first 30 that pay does seem to be the fairest way. They simply pick out the appropriate back and put it on the finished watch.
