That's exactly what I did. Most importantly (for me anyway) is that it got the price below the $800 customs threshold, so no fees and associated delays in shipping. Mine is expected to arrive Tuesday!

How I wish I had known this earlier
There was a blue and a green left last time I checked. Are they gone?

What color did you select?
Green on bracelet
I've been in the market for a green sports watch for a while now. Hope I like it.

I had both blue and green. I only kept blue, but the green was very pretty.
I'm fortunate I was slow to check my email. I haven't seen any models yet that would tempt me from using funds that are set aside for another priority. Some of the early listing would have encouraged my to pull my wallet out.

This is the only one that would have tempted me but I was travelling for work for a few days so missed the whole sale. Really like the steel/orange vibe!
Well done to all that secured something they were after (not just the deal - Downers rules) .
Been checking the sale quite often but haven't found anything to buy. I was hoping for something newer without the Christopher Ward text at 9 o'clock but may just have to buy a normal watch for normal money.
Makes sense for the sales to not be as good over time as the brand "levels up".

C60 Chronograph is a current, Swish only logo, model.

This is true but I can't get my head around a dive watch with a chronograph - but at least the hour hand doesn't totally obscure the subdials like the Tudor version.

Are you thinking of Tudor's Snowflake hour hand?

Early morning tap at the door, but both of my orders just arrived!
I know you wanted the Swish version, but I have exactly that C63 GMT and I think it’s such a beautiful watch. I hope you wear it and learn to enjoy it.
