I take it it's nearly impossible to see it on the outside - will settle for a D5 (thanks!)

@solodallas looks like the Swiss versions are available now.

ETA: for $600 I’d hunt for a CWC Diver, legit milsub heritage (name) and is it’s own thing.

Mine is my favorite even over the sub.

Just saw it - of course, after I clicked on "buy now" on the D5 yesterday, right?
I had even written Chip 'N Dale (the two founders) prior to purchasing and after. No replies.

Also no communication whatsoever on the status on my order (of yesterday) which supposedly was in stock.

Heck, we are also a small company but we provide a better service.

Anyway. Will keep the D5. I don't think there is anything wrong in supporting our own country as opposed to sending money to Switzerland.

ETA and thanks for getting back to me to let me know.
I also hope OP benefited from this thread - I know it was great for me

I will say that the communication was poor. The quality to price is worth it for me though. It's a very solid tool watch and when I don't feel like beating up my Omegas or even high end Seikos, it's the Vaer for me.
