Now that the design phase is over this is where we will be discussing all other matters related to the forum LE. Payment, delivery time, reservation etc etc

A quick note about pricing, considering we went with a few extra modifications and are getting the better grade box, display back, leather straps (2 instead of one) and a few extra features I will inform you about in due time, the price is probably at least another 80 Euro.

I will get you an exact figure when I have it.

I will of course give priority to our forum members, however there are a number of people from another board who are keen on getting in on this. Let's call them plan B. In the mean time here is who I have confirmed and their LE number:

1/15 : Altair
2/15 : Driver8
3/15 : aleister
4/15 : jfgardner4
5/15 : Broncosport
6/15 : eazy123
7/15 : Mofongo
8/15 : The T-Man
9/15 : dbniner
10/15 : Breitlingsource
11/15 : cxbxax
12/15 : pitonboy
13/15 : Bonedoc
14/15 : taffytoon
15/15 : Roffensian

If I forgot someone please post here, I removed people who backed out due to the choices clashing with their preferences.

lastly, delivery time will be just before or shortly after Christmas.

And as you can see guys, it's going to be a VERY limited edition............. and all for not much cash. :D

It's not often you see a watch with a run of just 15 pieces. Well worth getting in on IMHO.

I'm afraid that I'm going to have to at least give up my reserved spot - 47mm is too much for my wrists unfortunately. :(

I'll still be keeping a very close eye on all of this however.

Altair, you can put me down for #5 if noone else has claimed it.

Guys, you are killing me with all the talk about secret features.

:lol:

Regarding payments, I'd be completely happy to either pay Gunter the supplier directly, or use Altair as proxy. I, and many others, have done business with Altair earlier and I completely trust him.

Thanks Aleister, but payment directly to Gunter would be much more convenient to all I think since he has a multiple payment system set up.

Thanks Altair - Really great to hear you've recovered. Boy you must have been sick if 1. you spent time in hospital and 2. you didn't want to open your grail watch. Great to see you on the mend. How is the IWC by the way?

Sorry about that Tim :oops: , must have been a side effect of the fever, as I thought I got a PM from you.


As Driver said, this will be a very limited edition. In fact they never made a smaller run before and will likely not do so again, it took some negotiting but the small number is a huge plus in my book :mrgreen:

You're timing was good there. I swear I didn't see my name and then it was there, hence the edit. All good and thanks again!

I would like LE 14 of 15 as long as the price is right. Please let me know ASAP but as of right now I am taking 14/15

Also just a quick question? When did we choose on a strap instead of either a bracelet or strap, and an upgraded box, and ordering (2) straps?

This watch only comes on a strap as there's no bracelet option. As far as the other things go, I think they were just offered by Steinhart anyway. Altair can fill you in with the details as he's the only one who's been talking to Gunter.

I guess I didnt realize that bc at the beginning of all this I thought Altair said there would be a bracelet option. Im not trying to be a jerk by any means Im just wondering if possibly a bracelet would be a possibility instead of 2 leathers or something I dunno just a thought
