    PRS-50 LE arrival imminent

    The PRS-50 LE is due to arrive within the next 10 days so it's time to firm up on the list.

    Here are the names I have and I will assume that everyone still wants one unless they e-mail me to state otherwise. There's no need to e-mail me if you still want one, only if you don't.

    I'll post ordering information when they arrive.

    Hi Eddie, I pulled out a while ago (didn't like the logo on the dial), so "Mr. Randazzo" should replace me on that list. (http://www.tz-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.ph ... &start=195)

    Again, happy to buy one anyway in the unlikely event that they are not sold out.

    I have Mr Randazzo as dropping out but I could be wrong. Can I have confirmation?

    It will ship with the 70s retro Italian rubber strap and the price will be less than the PRS-14 although I don't know exactly how much yet.

    Less than GBP345?! Bloody hell. I'd budgeted for much more than that! :shock:

    I might have to chuck a PRS18Q in the order, too!

    I've already ordered a 22mm Bund strap for the watch, but I'm looking forward to seeing the retro rubber. Nice one Eddie.

    Hmmmmm, actually, I'll have to check the sums. :D

    I thought you would know by now, my prices are always based on cost, not what I think it could make.

    PRS 50 Reservation

    Hi Eddie....Sorry for not mentioning this earlier, but i was out of town on business, and only just got to catch up on current events...

    and I think there might be a bit of a mix up, at least I hope there is......

    It goes to Mr Barron from Canada if he still wants it.

    Eddie
    I was under the impression my place on the list had been secured with #46

    but according to the new master list.... I am not was of the chosen few!?!?....

    The price of the PRS-50 LE will be - hang on a minute, I think I might have missed something in the calculation. Sorry about that, I'll have to check the costs and get back to you.

    No, I really was waiting for more information. The watches will be completed next Monday, then checked before shipping to me on Wednesday. It's possible I should be able to start shipping on Monday 17 December and will post the link to the ordering page here next weekend. I can't make ordering available from the general website otherwise people who didn't reserve one will try to order them, trust me, it will happen.

    The price will be £315.00 plus shipping.
