A nero on bader bracelet Bel Canto just listed so who is going to get it?

Otherwise it seems to be lots of 36mm and 38mm stuff from last week.

Dang, got a cancellation email today. On Wednesday I ordered a new Dune while they were listed briefly. The confirmation email came the next day. Now today, Monday, the order is canceled. Disappointed? A little. Not a disaster, however. I figured the Dune line would get much attention in the sale. Apparently the stock got too much attention. :)

Now to confirm the refund.

Sorry to hear that happened to you.

Unfortunately this is another reminder of how unsuitable their eCommerce platform is because it should not allow orders to be placed if their is no remining stock. Inventory counts are sometimes off but still not right.

If they have not already, you should ask Customer Service for some type of accommodation (i.e. discount on something else) for their mistake.

My haul came in.

Canvas strap indeed in "nearly new" condition. Unused but some cosmetic marks present. Fine for my purposes! Threw it on a San Martin for now, exactly what I was looking for.

The black cordovan strap has the CW logo on the deployant clasp, unlike the pictures on the product page where it is blank. Haven't decided if that bothers me or not. I was planning on using with my Morgan Aero but now considering moving that on entirely so maybe I'll just include it. Not sure.

that's not great. I'm kinda expecting to receive similar because the "Check an order" form does not recognise my details

I have 6 CW cordovan straps in various colours and sizes. All were tapered, and all had an unsigned clasp, just branded on the underside. The one I bought in the sale carries the CW logo, but it's not too much and I won't be returning it, but I prefer it without. The absence of the taper is perhaps more of an issue. The taper from 20mm to 18mm adds a touch of elegance I feel.

When I place my order there were both Marine Blue and White Sand options available. I went for the White Sand with a Bader.

Restocked at 10 AM GMT with 75 items (72 in GBP) and still the unavailable C8 is there to taunt me. :) No Dunes at the moment. There is a Nero Bel Canto and some bronze offerings for some lucky buyer.

White Dune up there now.
Has anyone seen the black or green steel ones during the sale?

I have the same bronze model on order, still being prepared for despatch 6 days later. No complaints about still waiting. But on the assumption that on the scale of Nearly New there’s ’indistinguishable from new’ to ‘will show signs of wear’, I’m hopeful (particularly in the case of bronze models) that at CW Towers they’ll apply some logic of assigning the ‘better’ pieces to the earlier orders. Or is that wishful thinking?
