Just got notice that mine has shipped, but being overseas it isn't slated to get here until next Thursday.

Cheers,

I bet it was a steal with the exchange rate. :thumbup:

No update on my watch, unfortunately. Fingers crossed they were just too slammed to get all 250 out in one day, and mine will be forthcoming in the second wave. Otherwise, I missed out on some good deals this morning for no reason.

Join the club. I was also hoping to get shipping info today but nothing of the sort so far. Well, tomorrow is another day :)

Hang in there— I just received my shipment notice this morning, so it should arrive next week (US).

I like it, and it is a bargain, but I don't think it's for me...

Hey @jtc,

Why do you say it isn't for you? I agree the Tudor has more "presence", but isn't that the purpose of a "stealth" watch to fly under the radar?

Cheers,

M

Oh— how lovely in the flesh! I have that same Pelagos, but I think the C60 is sufficiently different. There’s a brutishness to the Pelagos that really highlights the elegance of the C60. I’ll be interested to see how the C60 looks on a bracelet when mine comes, but I can see myself ordering one of those straps as well.

Thanks for sharing a pic. I look forward to seeing more as our friends in the UK start to receive them today.

I will reveal a little "secret" that I had been privately mulling over, but I will probably not take up, so someone else might well be interested, and can take advantage.

There is actually a great looking and somewhat similar C60 Abyss on sale in sales corner for less than the cost of the graphite. Even if you bought a full priced Gunmetal bracelet, it would still come out less than £640, including the existing hybrid strap. :D

I was going back and forth on whether to buy the graphite. It’s a great looking watch, and I still kind of want it, but I’d have to sell my Abyss to make room. I wasn’t willing to do that. The Abyss would be a great alternative for someone who wants something like the graphite, but with more stealth and a nice pop of color.

Mine arrived today! Very impressed and the grey is really nice.

Here is a comparison against the abyss, and the abyss prototype for those of interest. Now, can i justify having all 3 :-k

The case is gunmetal PVD, with a DLC caseback.

You are duly and officially justified.
