Waiting list guide

 

Thank you for reading our waiting list guide. 

anOrdain watches are made by hand in our Glasgow workshop by a small team of specialist craftspeople. To allow us to manage demand fairly – while giving each watch the care and attention they deserve – we operate a waiting list. 

Customers can secure a future production slot by paying a non-refundable reservation fee, which is deducted from the final cost of your watch. 

Watch model and specifications are confirmed just before the chosen production slot, and the remaining balance paid. For information on availability see our new releases and core models page.

Continue reading for some commonly asked questions about the waiting list, and to find the reservation fee T&Cs. 

PAYMENT AND PRICING

 

  • The reservation fee secures a build slot for one watch.
  • The build slot is not tied to a specific model – we will reach out prior to your slot to confirm your selection.
  • The fee is a non-refundable, one-time payment of £350 GBP (+VAT for UK-based customers), payable by credit or debit card.
  • The fee will be deducted from the final cost of the watch.
  • Prices other than GBP will be calculated with a live conversion, so will use current exchange rates.
  • Owing to the length of the waiting list, our product prices may rise to match inflation. We review prices yearly and cap increases at 5%. For reference, prices have risen on average less than 1.5% per year since 2022.

WAITING TIME

 

  • We build a fixed number of watches each year, with production split into quarters.
  • Your watch will be completed and shipped within your build slot quarter.
