MystinenkellomiesThanks for asking. The good news is that when we timed this out we put in a pretty conservative timeline to begin with. Some of our affected partners in China were closed for about a month and have since resumed work, some on a partial schedule. This is a multiregional pandemic now, impacting both our European suppliers and some of our own operations. Its still normal business for us (we're under a shelter-at-home order here in SF and are working remotely while this continues). Given the current circumstances I do consider it a firm possibility that the delivery time will be impacted. I am gathering the best information I can presently to provide an update with respect to any revised timing and keep information current as this continues. Goes without saying too that right now I really hope everybody out there is staying safe and that their loved ones are ok.

xalsxHi @xalsx and @sgonk: All parts manufacturing to wit is complete and we're about to start final assembly for the Felixes beginning June 5th. It still remains to be seen if we'll be able to make our June 26 ship date, but I think it unlikely, but if so, the delay won't be too terrible. Given the way COVID-19 impacts operations in big and small ways, it's tough to speak with precision. Oddly, at the moment it's our packaging that might end up being a slight bottleneck here, since it took a while to get production restarted on that, but we're producing in full force now. Some good news which I will talk more about in a future post: We will be using Sellita SW200 elabore grade movements in these builds instead of the standard grade. :-)
