I checked mine yesterday.
No change to the above. Its left Chile but not arrived in UK.
Perhaps the flight went down in the Bermuda Triangle.

Guy, I got an update on the tracking....it's now on a Sopwith Camel passing over the Azores as I type
Seriously though, I guess if it only left Chile just over a month ago, with the festive period, covid, Brexit and our normally fairly slow customs process, maybe not that surprising that the three of us have yet to receive anything.

Oh well I guess it would be worse if one of us had received our order but the others hadn't. Hopefully they arrive before Black Friday 2021!

This just dropped through my letter box.
Difficulty is, I've forgotten what I ordered and for which watches!

Good news Guy, hopefully mine and Lindsey's won't be long behind yours.
I honestly can't remember the exact style of strap I ordered either although I recall the colour

It doesn't really matter. Much better than being lost in transit. Result.
Hopefully the others will turn up in the next day or so.

New strap for me from Martu on my C60 Apex.
Heavy padded, blue Donegal Tweed.
Not sure its absolutely right with the Tweed being woven from thread in three, maybe four, shades of blue plus black and the odd fleck of red and oatmeal.
I've got a different watch I intend to try it on though.

It's actually a decent match Guy (90% perfect from the two pics above IMO )

My Correos Chile package also arrived today, albeit been to busy with work to look at it. I hope Lindsey's has arrived too.
Nothing yet. Will let you know if or when it gets here

My martu strap has just arrived. Delighted with it, as I was the last time I bought from Andrea.
