I think this raffle is the better course to take. Well done, Richard.

Thanking all for your interest, it’s been a very encouraging response to the raffle. Once I have had an okay from admin I will post a link here. Alternatively, links will appear tomorrow on all the CW and Tribus Facebook groups. Also, I’ve had a very kind offer from Mike and his team to share the raffle on their Instagram pages.

I hope you will be OK to put the link up on here.
Otherwise I will be counted out as I don't use the others listed

Are tickets still priced at £5? I think the green one is the one to have but I unfortunately arrived too late!

@Richard D
I was a little surprised when you said you weren't going to run a raffle, but it was your decision.

I suspect a lot of watch you tubers who have praised the BC, such as Andrew Morgan would have possibly added a shout out to a charitable auction, which would help get the sale completed.

Aiming for a relatively modest sum, below £10000 is not being greedy at all, and I am sure many/most of us would be pleased to buy a ticket or two for a good cause.

All the best!

I wanted to improve the odds of winning the watch as as much as possible. Hence, only 1500 tickets. This raffle serves to raise money for the NHS but also delivers a lovely watch to somebody who many never have had the opportunity of owning a Bel Canto.
