In the past I got an email confirming that I entered the raffle. It’s possible it might’ve changed for this one. I’d check your spam folder. Worst case DM them on Instagram. They are usually very good at responding that way.

Flippers flipping before the raffle has even ended?!

I’m guessing this is being flipped by a friend or supplier that received on early…

No, but this is a known issue with their site. I received several emails saying that if I did not receive the confirmation e-mail, I should re-apply for the raffle. So register again until you receive the confirmation. If it doesn't work, write them an email!

If the seller does not win the raffle, he simply cancels the deal. It's not a big risk to them.

That doesn’t look like a stock photo but photos of an actual watch on hand.

Most likely it was a supplier or friend or someone from the tribe that had early access to the watch and is deciding to flip it.

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

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.

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

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.

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.
