Just won. Shocked that I got lucky. Now gotta decide to buy or not as I have the blue and red models. Green looks too similair go the red due to the black strap. They shoulda went with a green strap

Have a feeling you're about to get some DMs. You could offer it to your AD if they'll wear it / personal collection as a show of gratitude.

When you place the order, there are choices for the strap length.

Just got an email that I won as well! Shocked because I've been 0/2 so far. Looking forward to posting pics once the watch has been delivered. Loving the green way more than the red.

I agree with you completely. I ordered the medium size and it was too short and the large was too big. It was really frustrating. I’m still waiting for the Delugs strap to restock.

What size is your wrist if you dont mind me asking? I ordered a medium and worried it might be too short.

The resale prices appear to be plummeting with each drawing. That should hopefully cut into the flippers.

Would you be willing to share how much $ your import duties came to? And what state you are in?

$3250 plus around $150-ish import duty... plus state sales tax. I'll offer $5k for n.i.b. green. Sell with confidence, I have many, many references.

There are already 4 listings for MAD1 green on Singapore carousell platform. 1 of them already have offer to x2 rrp. Flippers should thank Max for giving them a fat bonus

if max was smart hes open the raffle for 1-2 days max so that enthusiasts can enter. Having it open for 2 week or month like before just invites flippers

6 3/4. The medium strap was frustrating to me because it just had to be a little bit longer and it would’ve been perfect but it was too snug for me.

I thought the medium strap is supposed to go from 16.5cm up to 19cm which is 6.5 to 7.5 inch? 6 3/4 should be perfect. Does the strap come short?

I’m not the best at uploading photos but I hope this helps to show how the strap doesn’t fit that well for me. I don’t have large wrists but as you can see it barely leaves room. The large strap has the opposite problem.
