Has it shipped yet. Has it shipped yet. Has it shipped yet.

Just like an aggravating, but anxious kid.


I was happy with my 405, then the 410, then maybe 605, 610, F2, now F3. F3 works for the most part. Its crashed on me. Its locked up on me. But I still like it. It does much more than I need, but I can live with that. the 5x does even more than I need. But I dont know if I'd like maps or not. But I do like the idea of more memory and faster processor. That spells future proof usually. I might not like mapping. Ok. so I may not use it. I might not like the OHRM, though I hope it works. If not. So be it. I really really hope it wont lock up during my next 50miler, 100k or 100miler. That really blows. It blows that I cant charge it while its on my wrist. But eh... I can hold it while charging, or faster it to my pack. Ultras are hard, holding a while during recharge. Cake. I'm excited. I'm prepping my F3 for resale, hoping to reduce the chunk the F5x is setting me back. But my preorder is in.

Peace!
  • CT was supposed to get 105 watches by today. Has anyone heard anything from them? Anxiously waiting on my metal 5x.
  • I just ordered a 5x from Holabird Sports. It didn't say back-ordered and they charged my card, gave a delivery date of next Tuesday. I hope that means it's in stock.


    They shipped today with a delivery date of Tuesday, so they had at least 1 in stock. 5x with Silicone band.
  • I pre-ordered a 5X from Amazon on Jan 12th. It shipped today and will arrive Monday. Just a status of Amazon's inventory...

    I chatted them up earlier today about my 5x with silicone band. They told me it was going to ship today and gave me a tracking #. I think the tracking number is a dud because it hasn't moved, and it was created yesterday morning.
  • Finally received the tracking number from REI for order placed Monday, should be here on Monday :)

    Was that for the 5X with the rubber band? I ordered Sunday from REI and it still has 30 days delay on the order and no tracking.
  • I ordered mine last Friday thanks to this thread. :) It was listed as in stock and was supposed to ship Monday. I received a call from Paul on Tuesday saying their shipments arrived backwards (5X was supposed to arrive Monday and 5S on Tuesday) but that my 5X was on its way. Even though my order was a bit delayed I really appreciated the call.

    Then it took USPS 2 Day Air 3 days to arrive.

    Everyone should have such problems.



    Just picked mine up as well. I haven't done much with it yet, but it is a great addition on my wrist! The shop was great to deal with. Paul at Evergreen Mountain Sports mentioned they are getting more 5X at the shop on Tuesday 3/28. If you want one, here is the website or give the them a call.

  • Is REI Shipping?

    FYI, ordered mine from REI online (sport band - non metal) on 3/22 late in the evening, received a shipping email late last night 3/23 with a UPS tracking number, delivery next Wednesday!


    Ordered mine yesterday--said backordred with a 30-day estimated ship date (standard for any back order, so just a placeholder.) Anyone seeing progress after this? Would love to have it for an event on April 22, but won't hold my breath.

    5x with metal band

    Anyone receive the 5x with the metal band? Still hoping CT comes through. Fortunately no credit card issues, but did one time credit card # for that transaction in February.

    Yes it's the rubber band version. When I placed my order it was a pre order, will ship within 30 days.
