Depends on how much difficulty theyre having sourcing the watch. If you haven't already, drop 'em an email to enquire.

Patience is difficult when you've spent weeks choosing the watch you want, doing research into which factory is best, finally deciding which TD to buy from and then paying. The wait then seems interminable. But once the watch arrives, you'll forget everything. Kinda like childbirth !

Glad to know you got the QC photos.  Have you received the watch?

I just got photos after a wait of less than 24 hours. I suppose for once the dealer did actually have the watch in stock.

Probably the last watch any TD is gonna sell you.  Hope it's a turd.

Like a literal turd, or a metaphorical turd?

Coincidentally, I got a watch from a TD yesterday. QC was approved August 2, meaning it took 22 days to get to the US.

That is slower than what I'm used to but previous experience has taught me to keep cool, sometimes it takes longer. 

It's not my habit, but this time, I couldn't resist checking the tracking a couple days ago :bounce:

I find if it goes to two weeks or more I then check the tracking as well, just in case something bizarre has happened...

Well today would be 11 days since receiving my tracking number, I was guessing that I would receive an e mail update on status/location.  I decided to check the tracking again, to my amazement overnight there have been 20 tracking updates, MY WATCH IS GETTING DELIVERED TODAY!!!! it's at my local USPS hub on truck out for delivery, this is my first TD watch, for all other noobs like me waiting on their first watch remember T is for trusted, just follow the process, I will have pics tonight after work
