It’s fine. It’s just to do with the hand stack positioning. A watch repairer can easily re-sit them an hour earlier if you prefer.
Eddie runs it like that as he can only ship 200 parcels a month and he can’t hold customer’s funds for more than a month. It’s nothing personal, but he’s limited by capacity. Yes, he’s also a stroppy Yorkshireman, but the watches are worth it. You just need to get your credit card details into the system. I believe that any purchase on a Shopify site will save your credit card data, to speed up future purchases. I have an Everest Expedition and a Monopusher. Both great watches. I didn’t but any more as I’m now looking to invest in more expensive watches, but you won’t regret buying a Smiths.
