Nice! When it's that getting delivered?

HogwldFLTR · 27 June 2023, 11:31 PM

FWIW, mine is due in October. It's been a while since I ordered it. (January time frame).

Being built with an ETA of July - expect that to slip however.

I agree - a few were allocated to TRF members when the McLaren owners failed to complete their deposits :-) I wasn't fast enough :-(

Managed to secure one of these, long wait till April 2024..

My Cielo was due this week but at the moment it looks like there will be delays on that one as well. Update should arrive later this week as per their CX

Congrats. This is beautiful. How do you know when you might get delivery? Is CW communicating this on all orders?

enjoythemusic · 1 July 2023, 10:52 PM

Purple dial for July delivery has been delayed. Guess 2023 is not my year for timepieces. No LM101 purple (was scheduled for July, but tight finances on my end...), and now a delay on the C1 purple too.

My 2023 bday celebration went from the most epic ever... to turning to sh.t :(

Yes - ETA on order then updates if delayed!

Posting here as well:

I was supposed to take delivery of my Bel Canto light blue dial this September, just got informed about production delay. Thought I was so close to having on the wrist.

I ordered mine on December 22, 2022.

Just received this update:

"I hope this finds you well.
I am contacting you personally about a delay to your C1 Bel Canto.
As well as being a stunning example of elite horology, the Bel Canto is an incredibly complicated watch to produce and we have experienced some problems in achieving the quality of finishing of the bridges to our exacting standards.
I’m pleased to say that our technical team, working with our manufacturing partners have overcome these difficulties and we’re now able to increase our production numbers.
However, we are quite a long way behind schedule, meaning there will be a delay on the original date provided to you. Your new delivery date, I can confirm, will now be Jan 2024.

I can only apologise for this delay but hope you will take comfort from our approach as we would never want a watch to be sent that isn’t of the highest standards. The Bel Canto is a very special watch and, despite the extended wait, I am sure you will be delighted once it is finally in your possession."

Back to the future!

PhilLynott · 4 August 2023, 12:54 AM

Yeah mine went from October to March oh well.

enjoythemusic · 4 August 2023, 01:03 AM

Purple delayed until Nov.

My purple dial moved from October to February.

Enzo954 · 5 August 2023, 09:48 AM

Purple delayed for me until November. At this point the initial hype for this piece is starting to wear off a bit. The delays due to all of these issues they are having with quality control are a bit concerning.

ansharma · 5 August 2023, 04:00 PM

Also a four month delay - originally estimated at December 23 and now will be April 24 - oh well at least we don’t have to part with our monies until a bit later!

They seem to be bringing out many new models/inventory and am not sure if this has an impact on Bel Canto production but I doubt it helps.

Maybe production was rescheduled because of the special editions?

I’m in no rush and not concerned about issues with quality. It’s a fantastic deal for the price.

Glad CW received a GPHG award, and able to introduce multiple new models recently, but how about produce what you’ve sold !
