Thanks to Shawn and Durate, there were quite a few '928' dial watches running around at Frenzy over the weekend. A big THANKS to both of you for this successful project.

If you only got one email, then I only sent one watch. I don't see one for you in the batches waiting to go to Duarte. What was the model of the second watch?

You're welcome, Gary. Hopefully you guys generated some interest in another run of dials and we can do this again next year.

You'll definitely receive an email when it's on its way to you. I'm sorry it's taking so long, but I promise you that I'm getting them turned around as fast as I can. Watchmaking isn't Duarte's livelihood, so he's working on them in the evening and getting a couple done a night.

I wasn't looking for the 928Seikos but did manage to snag SeanR

AHHHH! The mystery is solved. I've had an 'extra' SNK809 here for weeks, and I could not match it to an order. I'm so happy you spoke up.

I'll put it in the next batch out to Duarte.

I had 2 watches on one order from Amazon also and only received one watch. Thought you were just getting everyone at least one watch before sending more. I went crazy and ordered at total of 3 watches and a face. Have received one watch and one face to date.

All the others were matched to an order. PM me the order & I'll double check!

Shawn,

Any updates on who would be receiving their watches next. I ordered two but I'm in Australia, so I thought maybe you were sending the international orders last.

Thanks, my orders as follows.

ID :8 Ordered June 8, 2014
Seiko SNZJ13 delivered June 11

ID :79 Ordered June 21, 2014
Seiko SNZ613 delivered June 26

Thanks
Dale Rogers

Okay...

The most recent batch got back from Duarte on Monday (sorry, I was out of town for a couple days), these are going out to you today:
  • Matthew Hill
  • Anthony Davis
  • Dave Lomas
  • Stefan Damstrom
  • Charles Adkinson
  • Arnoud de Vaal
You should get an email from the USPS when they're accepted at the post office.

These are going to Duarte today:
  • [*]
  • [*]
  • [*]
  • [*]
  • [*]
  • [*]
  • [*]
  • [*]
  • [*]
  • [*]
These should be back to me in a week or ten days.

I know this is taking a long time, and I understand the excitement. I very much appreciate everyone's continued patience and indulgence.

Further updates as events warrant.
