Congrats to the latest winners. I’m on pins and needles for my clover edition. I think it’s May delivery. I’m getting the timing of my preorders confused though. Bel canto etc

I literally got an email after your response from CW to pay the balance. Said I’ll have within a month as they complete final checks etc.

That’s great. I also received this email and paid the balance after some technical issues on CW’s side. I assume this is another delay as it was promised in April. I must say it has been a very disappointing experience with CW and have written them a note about this.

Yup. It was a PIA to checkout. They need to fix their e-commerce.

Another draw, another loss.

[Pdfrench]

3rd time lucky for me. Ordered last night. Looking forward to booking my flights to Genève to collect it in person.

[INC]

It's the first time I'm not really sad because I lost again. Congratulations to the happy winners :)

[omar-rye]

Nearly 25000 entries. That’s incredible.

As much as i dislike flippers, wonder how many of those 25k are flippers only in it for the profit from guys like me who desire one.

Short recap, I received my Lucky Clover a couple of weeks ago and I absolutely love it. I had no idea what to expect, would it wear too big?, would it be a waste of money?, would it be a silly purchase, ... but I absolutely love it. It's a fun watch, something I needed, something that's not really known.

Even on my smaller wrists it wears well and sits perfectly, not heavy and bulky at all like a Seiko SKX feels and wears.

That’s a crazy number of entries. Happy for those who were able to get one.

Congratulations to all the lucky winners!!!

I didn't participate in this raffle as I waiting for my lucky clover - but the number of entries is really surprising - true a lot of the applicants used multiple email addressees etc. But, still i was under the impression that it was a limited edition of 999 pieces out of which half allocated to tribe members so 500 allocated to the lottery.

It doesnt look like this will be the last Mad 1.

[INC]

... and how many of them are unique individuals? IMHO, many registrations came from the same people, just from different email addresses.

[rajurama]

Received the allocation. I will decide whether to rock it once it arrives. I love colors so hopefully I should like it enough.

Hey Guys, what's your take on the construction of the M.A.D.1?

I was reading an old article from SJX and there was a comment about the case construction relying on glue to be held together:

https://watchesbysjx.com/2022/12/mbf...mt-milano.html

Do you think there is any truth in that? Would this be an issue for long term ownership? Happy to hear from long term owners experience with your M.A.D.1.

cheers,

R

I have heard of the glue being an issue if the watch is ever dropped. I have been wearing mine for 6 months with no issue so far though

If you read about the HM11, articles mention use of glue holding together many crystals. Not that it's in my budget but I love it except for that part. I wonder how it would be 10,15, 20 years down the road

[enjoythemusic]

Been wearing mine in rotation and no troubles with any of them (three).

[Gebbeth]

What do they mean by glue? Is it a friction fit that is held secure by "glue" (don't some manufacturers use LocTite or something similar on bracelet screws)?

Or is the fit literally held together by "glue"?

By the way, industrial use of glue to hold things together is not new nor it is considered a bad thing. Some glues are really really strong.
