Don't worry @Bahnstormer , @goodbarista is a legal professional (and a good one at that) so can get out of any bother.
I’ve been wanting a 36mm 12ti since they were released. I passed on them in the prior sales, but this price is significantly lower and I couldn’t say no. I’m hoping the condition is halfway decent.
I’m thinking this will complete my collection and I can live in stability. For a time.

What colour did you go for Alex? Honestly, every watch I picked up on Saturday seemed to be in great condition. I couldn’t see anything with my naked eye to make them not look new. Hopefully yours will be the same.

Thanks for the info Kev, I’ve always had good luck with nearly new, so sounds like this might not be too different!
I went for the blue. I’ve seen the purple in person and I like it a lot but the blue will be wearable more often.

It's strange to see the Bel Canto Dragonfly in this sample sale. They originally sold it during a regular sale, then retracted it, explaining it was a mistake because it’s a boutique-only piece that shouldn’t be sold online. And yet, here it is again, available in this new 'sample' sale.
If their reasoning was that boutique-only watches should only be sold in person, then wouldn’t that same logic apply here? Especially since they also held in-person sample sales—shouldn’t those have been the only place to offer it?
I wonder what it feels like to be the last watch left 'on the shelf' in a sale or sample sale. The poor Twelve 36 (Ti) Nardus Green now sitting there all sad and lonely.
I post a few watch pictures now and then to a little Instagram account - 16 followers and counting!
@timepieces_and_bags not quite, I see a C8 Flyer available as well, for UNDER $400 USD. What an incredible price for someone out there who can handle 44mm.
Maybe if I like the 12ti in blue enough, I’ll pick up the green to keep it company? Someone slap me for talking nonsense…

It was greyed out when I looked so I assumed it had sold and the website hadn't been updated.

I think it is the Ghost Of Sales Past and is not actually a real listing...frustrating for me as my almost 8" wrist could handle it.

I think that is what was happening yesterday when I was putting 12s in mine....
