My account page tells me it is on „pre-order“ status?

Wow that was certainly far quicker than I expected as they must have plenty of orders to post out. My Eve Dune still says preparing for dispatch. Very intrigued to see what condition of yours is like when it arrives

That says "out of stock", but the add to bag button is working. I suspect an order would be cancelled, and in case, I don't actually want a black 300. :D

So it has just arrived and I can't see a mark on it! All the packaging is as per new, protective plastic on the clasp and around the watch head, warranty card signed 25th March etc.

Fingers crossed everyone else's comes in such fantastic condition.

Maybe not that many compared with the sale. I thought there were 350 watches in the UK, and 150 in the US so most likely rather smaller quantities than a normal sale.

Hey, everybody. I'm new here, accidentally discovered the site on March 25 and saw a sale, liked The Twelve 40 (TI) Aurora Green. Decided I would think about it for a day, saw it sold out the next morning. Was extremely disappointed. Can you tell me how often these sales happen (roughly)? And is there any chance that someone will return this watch and it will go back on sale? 😅

^^^^ @artem.krotkin - Welcome to the Forum / Asylum.

The current / recent 'Sample Sale' is the first of it's kind, so we can't offer any idea as to how frequently they happen.

However, CW usually has Sales in January & July with 20% discount off Nearly New pieces and 30% - 40% on Clearance / Retired models.

These are usually quite frantic, as only one or two pieces of any given model are offered, and stock gets snapped up pretty quickly; as it was in the Sample Sale. Basic ethos; snooze you loose!

Chance of a return and resale? Possible but slim.

@Bahnstormer_vRS Thank you for such a detailed response.
I was lucky enough to stumble upon a site with the first sale of its kind, I wish I'd had enough to buy something I liked after all.

Saw the last copy of c1 moonphase 40 for around 1800 euros today, but The Twelve is too much in my heart.

My ordered been cancelled out of nowhere with no communication from CW? Will have to contact customer support ASAP. Assume this means I shan’t be getting the watch?
