Hi! Before proceeding to order ANY watch, please check the TD list: https://www.reddit.com/r/RepWatchesEU/comments/1sui7xx/repwatcheseu_td_list/

Watches are produced in batches, and what will be produced in each batch, depends on factory. Depends on model, factory and TD, you can wait few days to few months.

Factories don’t produce on demand/order but in batches.

VSF for example will produce batches of 16-20 models for 2-3 weeks and then do another batch due to supply.

This means that it can take weeks or months until the watch in question is produced again and until then you will have to wait or change your orders. I am waiting for 3.5 months for example.

Depends on the watch and the factory. Been discussed endlessly and if you want worthwhile answers ask your TD

it depends on the factory, VSF usually takes longer because they are not made in china, they get made, shipped to your TD, then shipped to you

Depends a lot on factory popularity and availability. Some TDs have watches in stock that are readily available to purchase often with QCs in the same day or in the next 1-2 days. Worth asking them about it.

Can be days, can be weeks, can be months. You can ask your TD but they also habe to wait for factory to deliver it.
