baglc1 Posted March 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 Does not tell me much. Only thet they will let you know when is ready. That could be in December. who knows. Dear Colin: Thank you for your email. I was able to locate your pre-order on the Yatch Master 16622 and then transfered to the Pre-Order on the Sea Dweller 16600. The Sea Dweller 16600 was originally planned to be completed by end of this month; however, due to the delay we faced on the Submariner 16610LV project the Submariner 16613 and Sea Dweller 16600 are now facing a push back. We are looking to complete the Sea Dweller 16600 by end of March. Shipment will begin than to our customers who pre-ordered in the order it was received. Meanwhile, can I please have you complete the following information in the exact format provided. Name: Company: Address: City: State/Province: Zip Code: Country/Nation: Land Phone: Cell Phone: We truly apologize for the delay and the lack of communication during this extremely busy period since we have 3 on going projects. We understand the wait can be frustrating but believe me when I say this. We are doing our best to complete the project while maintaining our quality and precision. It will be worth the wait! I am 56 on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panerai153 Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Just for reference, when did you place your order? I'm probably 2056!!! Thanks. At any rate, judging from past projects it will be worth the wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoJo35 Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 Anyone want my preorder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 Anyone want my preorder? This reminds me... when I was still young and single I was bouncing in the most popular night club in town. It was very good door and of course the tips and earnings were huge. Of course it was the most desired place for all bouncers in the town. That was long time ago, before Darth Vader and the Emperor Palpatine... before the tax nazis got involved, and when it was still individual, "freelancer based" unorganized business. Well... when I felt more like partying I used to sell my Friday and Saturday shifts to other bouncers. Money for nothing and chicks for free. PS: Friends, of course, got my shifts for free. Your offer is very generous... I'd offer it to a good forum friend first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvn Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 i can't believe you cancel your YM preorder. I would have take your place. I think WM9 YM is better than SD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chefcook Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Guys I hope the wait will be over soon. During the wait I have aquired a lot of parts for the Sea Dweller: Gen He valve, gen crystal, gen bezel insert, gen crown, gen crown tube, gen spring bars, gen divers extensions (both S and L size)... I want that watch now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panerai153 Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Chef,looks like you are ready!! That's going to be one sweet watch with all those mods. I can't wait for mine either. I'm pretty far down the list so I'm sure my watch is going to be a while coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pollux1 Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Personally, I have no prob waiting, especially once my watch receives BK's treatment before shipping. The wait is just part of it and considering the quality I'd rather it was done right than receive a work in progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chefcook Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Hehe, I even have the bracelet tool that came with gen sea dwellers eBay, RWG, gen forums and a local watchsmith were the sources for those parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panerai153 Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Well Fellow SD buyers in waiting, I just got an email from George. looks like there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and it isn't a locomotive!! Here is the response to an email that I sent him a few days ago. Dear Sir: Thank you for your email. We are maintaining the project completion date of end of March. Once the project is completed we will be assembling and testing the first batch or orders. This watch due to it's more complex nature, would require longer assembling hours. Shipment will slowly be made out in the order it was received. Right now we are estimating a late April to early May shipment date on your batch. Please let me know if there is any question and I'd be glad to assist you. My order was placed directly with WM9 on November 11,2009, so I would hope that folks who ordered in late 2008 to very early 2009 would be getting there watches in late March or early April. Lets hope that they are back on schedule and all the gliches have been worked out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panerai153 Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 @member X I'm not!! I hope by mid summer maybe July or August. I have no idea how many Pre-orders he has for this watch. I think BK said his was around 250, so even if WM9 has another 250, that's 500 watches to be assembled and prepped/packed and shipped,a daunting task, and one that isn't going to happen overnight.

chefcook Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 I think George / WM) once stated that he had about 2300 pre orders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
