How many of you had your Timefactors cart ripped away on checkout today?

I was there, ready, logged in, all set to bag a Smiths Everest, yet still failed to secure anything as my basket was unceremoniously ripped away from me as I furiously stabbed the checkout button.

It took less than 2 minutes for everything to sell out. It may have been short, but it was a rollercoaster of emotions! 🤣

If any of you bagged anything, congratulations!

It did make me chuckle afterwards as I was frenzied. What do we do to ourselves in the name of our hobby/habit!

Yep, I'm happy to play the long game on these.

Oh no! 🤦 I feel for you.

Just think how sweet it'll be when you do finally bag one 👌

Thank you! It's one of those things.

I can't believe I got so whipped up into it all.

It's a different sort of fun experience from visiting an AD that's for sure!

San Martin. No being treated like a funt… decide. Add to basket. Buy. 👍

I'm convinced that flippers are pouncing on these. It's worse than Rolex 😂😂😂.

The fact the only ones I see being sold are over double the RRP makes me think you're right!

I feel your pain mate. The same thing happened to me trying to buy a Zelos a while back. Had it in my cart and then it was gone. That’s happened with them a few times now, so I think I’m done with them for a while.

It's not a great experience is it. I don't quite know how I could have been any quicker either!

I'm sure I'll get one eventually. If not, I have a ridiculously long list of other watches I'm after.

You must develop bot skills... How fast can you tap... May the force be always with you.

I was honestly poised, hovering over the keys. I clearly need to get into training!

Got lucky a few years ago and managed to purchase the white PRS-25 Everest off of the Timefactor website. Since then I’ve broken down and bought the PRS-25 Silver Jubilee and the newly released “Honeycomb” edition (purchased just last night) off of eBay. Will definitely post pics when the Honeycomb arrives!
