I was made aware of this in the early hours of this morning and was made aware of the one which sold the other day. I will point out that the one the other day only had one bid.
I am only guessing but I feel this might be someone chancing their luck. My reason for this is that back in late 2017 there was a Tudor watch made for the Royalty Police officers. Only 75 were made and cost roughly £3k. Very recently one was sold at a Sotheby’s auction for £44,100. Hence my belief a tiny minority of people want to try and cash in.
As I said this is only my own thoughts.

As a current active officer in the Met, even though not in RaSP, I wish there was the option to buy this, I would purchase it in a heartbeat. There is a new one for a certain SO coming out soon from CW which I have seen and wished I could've got. Please CW if there is ever an option for me to buy his I would love to buy it, happy to provide credentials privately.

It's definitely worth reaching out to customer services to enquire about stock, you never know what they may have. After a tip off on here, I was able to buy a C60 Sunrise that wasn't on the website, and must have been a return from the original release batch.

From my experience, it was more fruitful to pick the phone up and speak to someone in the sales team.

Welcome to the forum / asylum.

The point here, I believe and am sorry to say, Parvan is that you are seeking a Sold Out and oversubscribed Bespoke Edition CW watch from two years ago.

You may, of course, try CW but I severely doubt they will have one and even if they did a sale would have to be sanctioned by the Project Instigator who I expect would have a validated wait list anyway.

Your best bet is to be patient and keep an eye on the secondary market.

Thank you for explaining to @PavanSingh, Guy.
If only I had seen this yesterday as I was only chatting with PF yesterday afternoon 🤦‍♂️.
Have PM’d @PavanSingh to see what I can do.
