    Has anyone had this sort of communications with him recently ?

    That simply means that he's dealing with many people at once and there is only one rule....you pay = you have the watch. Fast people are the winners : )

    No many businesses can boom to that extent, this is one of the few. If that is the case, it is just a matter of time that this market will be flooded with 1963; good news for the late comers.

    I got mine today, after 20 days waiting.
    It seems I should feel lucky, reading the news:








    Very happy with it, works perfect.
    Greetings from Spain.

    Can't exactly see, but was wondering if it had the "new" signed crown on it. Without, or with, it is still my favourite non swiss watch. Sorry, I just got my Speedie Pro, but having said that, I will be wearing my Seagull 1963 at my wedding next month. That should say something about my appreciation of this watch. I love it.
    I think Thomas does the best he can, and I have complete faith in the man.
    Regards to you too
    from Australia.
    Kind Regards

    Just received the replacement for my broken watch........Since they were out of the 19 jewel issue, I got the 21 jewel. No extra charge

    I received an email yesterday from Watchunique that they're taking pre-orders for this watch. Additionally, they were offering an 8% discount off their price.

    With the conversion of euros to dollars, and shipping to the U.S., the price still came out to around $205, which is $15 more than buying direct from Seagull HK!

    Hmm...I'm undecided at this point. I really want this watch, but would prefer to get it for $15 cheaper if I can.

    What do you all think?

    Personally, I would opt for the watch from Watchunique for an extra $15. At least you'll be informed when it will ship and get a tracking number out of it. YMMV

    Hi all, a little off topic, but relevant i think, does anyone know how many of the 1963 re-issue were/have been made? They've been claimed as being limited but limited to how many? Just seems every so often a new batch appears, which does kinda pose the question of when production will stop and if there is a finite number they are working toward.
    Hope someone has an answer (sure they do)
    Cheers all
    Chris
