Well that was quick! Nothing I wanted especially but I want to see what "pool blue" looks like.
I'm still not motivated to sign up to Bel Canto, I feel a showroom visit might be the trigger there. For me the C60 Elie is still a keck of a watch but I've resisted any urge to add a non-GMT variant.
I shall keep watching to see what else gets added to the wares on display.
C60 MKI, MKII, MKIII: "some",
C6 & C60 Kingfishers,
C600 Tritechs,
C63 "some",
C65 "some",
C4, C40, C8, C9, C3, C5, C20 & 23FLE
Some other brands

Read my recent post on how to purchase a Trident Pro 300 (over $800 even on strap) by paying in pounds. It gets you under the $800 limit if you are willing to use a credit card that does currency conversion for you but does not charge a fee. It works for several watches and many in the sale.
Exactly what I did. Paid with a no fee card and in Sterling.

So weird. I got my first email about the sale around 3:30 pm European time and then I just got a new email now about the sale. what`s the point of emailing over 1 an hour after the sale started ... hmm

I've often found it interesting to select ALL the SALE FILTER tick boxes, check the number of available items then uncheck and sometimes the two numbers end up different. Right now with the boxes checked there are 84 items and with all filters cleared 91 items!

Same here. Got my first email notification at 4:04 pm GMT, over an hour after the sale started.

On the USA site, it appears they are selling off NEW dunes and TP300 green for 30% off and they are no longer listed in the regular catalog.

If you want one, now is the time to get it.

It`s official, all Bel Cantos are gone now

I was not expecting to see a Dragonfly Bel Canto there, but once I saw it there I wanted it so much.
Hope they release new batch of Bel Cantos, preferably Dragonfly ... that`s the only watch I'd buy

Thank you to those who posted the link to the sale as I had not yet received the email when the sale began. I was able to purchase the watch I wanted -- 36mm Morpho Blue Sealander on the Bader bracelet.

Me too.
I like Pool Blue now but will I like it in 1 year? 5 years? 10 years?
Same reason I passed on the green TP300.

Sucked in by the hype and c*ck*d up when it mattered😞
I wanted a Black 39 Sealander and a white 39 Sealander GMT. One on leather (or rubber) and one on a bader.
Check and double check YES!!!
White sealander on black and orange rubber £548 in the bag, rush to checkout and jobs a good'un.
Next black sealander on a bader - £682, in the bag, rush to checkout, deal done. Party time.
Then I realise my mistake.....it was a white sealander auto, not a GMT😲
Instant message to Customer support to cancel the order, but now I don't have enough to order the GMT! (and yes there were at least two!)
Damn, Damn, Damn. It could have been perfect.
Obviously I did save on the Black sealander, so it's not really a disaster.
I think I got too carried away in rushing to the checkout and should have triple checked before hitting the button.
Fingers crossed that some more GMTs are added later, after I get my refund.

As much as I would have liked to pick up a Dune or C60 trident 300 40mm I just could not justify the spend having picked up 2 lovely watches just before Christmas, even though the sale prices were decent. However, a 20mm Blue Vacona strap with Bader deployment clasp for €45! Yes please!!!!
C63 Sealander GMT Hunter Green
C7 Rapide Auto Black/Red
Lots of other watches of all shapes and sizes!

Picked up a Sealander 39 GMT in black. I've been eyeing them up for a while, so decided to go for it. Was tempted by a Lumiere but held fire.

I posted in the other thread

I got the email timed at 3pm UK, but wasn't home until about 4:30. I snapped up 3 great half price straps. I will look at the watches that are hanging around. I prefer 40mm plus, and there's a few left.

A few limited editions and an opportunity for some to pick up on some savings over new, but nothing that takes my interest.
I was hoping to see a limited C63 'Sunset' GMT, but nothing yet...

I can't help but think that the C65 Dune would have flown off the shelf if the lume were white.
