Hello everyone,

I don't want to disappoint anyone but a little more than 1000 pieces have been manufactured and Max said in a LinkedIn post last week (when there were 18'500 participants in the raffle) that they were approaching 100 registrations for each available timepiece...

If 1000 pieces are going to be made then there will be significantly less available for the raffle after the first dibs are done ordering.

I also heard about the 1000 pieces in Geneva last week. I ordered mine 20 minute after I got the order code.

Thanks for this - I hope those that truly want one get one, my expectations are extremely low now but far from disappointed as I see it is a bit of fun really and is a lottery after all.

Best of luck to everyone! Lets hope that at least 200-300 watches from the 1,000 aprox manufactured hit the raffle. If 20,000 people signed up it seams reasonable to have 1 winner per 66-100 tickets. Thoughts?

Higher or lower chance than getting the desired steel sports Rolex directly from the AD without waiting (with a discount)?

I believe its less than 1% chance of you winning the raffle at this rate. Crossing my fingers!

Results will be posted April 11. He said in a video that he's clearing out as much duplicate emails (flippers with multiple emails and addresses) before they pick the winners.

Max posted a video on IG, the draw will take place next week. 25000 participants for 450 pieces available so odds are 1/55.

Probably more than 1/55 once the duplicates/flippers have been cleared from the 25000 entries...

I guess it can be way worse but chances seem really slim. He did say another batch will be released next year and be sold via lottery again.

I haven’t received anything yet either. I am hoping someone on this thread has at least got lucky! I would have assumed the draw would have been done by now and comms sent out to those lucky few.

I may be mistaken in memory but I think Max said that an email would be sent to each person regardless of whether selected

Yes that would be a kind way to do it and appreciated by most, normally only the ‘winners’ are contacted in this sort of raffle. We will find out soon enough or maybe not

Apparently some people on IG have said they’ve already received an email, can’t wait to see weather or not it was a win for me

Guessing they’ll inform the winners first (sounds like this has already happened/is happening) and then inform the losers tomorrow in one go.

I wouldn't be surprised if some people declined. I'd wait the 24 hours :).
