I would like to hear the number of entries. I received the "Congratulations" email this morning... but I never win anything!

Looking forward to putting it on the wrist soon.

If anyone is interested in a ‘like new’ original MAD1 red near cost, please DM me! Time to make space for the slim…

10,000 entries. Confirmed by the MAD team. A lot less than the original MAD1 entries.

Maybe the payment hold did help with the flippers and bots?

I was over ambitious and picked L strap without measuring my wrist and realised now it’s going to be too big. Hopefully they will allow me to switch to M prior to delivery

They will if you email them. I did the same for the lucky clover but they were able to switch it for me.

The real transacted premiums have also nearly completely collapsed…so far more risk in terms of effort expended and transaction costs to buy for flipping…

Got the congratulations email!

I'm considering a LM101, but wanted to try something a bit more obtainable with the same dna first. Definitely my favorite of the MAD series. Excited to see what Max comes out with for the MAD2.

I really like the 2021 LM101 in RG with the blue dial. I reached out to MB&F about a week ago and they're still accepting waitlist requests for deliveries mid-late 2025.

That’s a great combo. Please keep us updated if you decide to get one.

Very different pieces though, LM101 is super refined and a serious piece and MAD1 is a fun watch which brings a smile to your face when you flick your wrist to spin the rotor.

This will be my first non conformant or “MAD” watch. Looking forward to the delivery, we will see how much wrist time it gets between the normal daily watches, SD4K and FXD Marine Nationale.

I really wish the purple was the one offered for this raffle. I would’ve really liked to get that one as well. Hopefully someone will be able to help you out.

You better get your purple haze in time for the grand opening. I wanna see more of them posted on this forum :)

I think the ice blue looks nicer. I’m surprised they didn’t allocate the blue to the tribe instead of the purple, as this shade of blue has become MB&F’s signature colour and would have been more fitting for the tribe.

Congrats to the winners. Let us know how easy the time is to read, or if there are any other quirks, to this latest model.

My only gripe is that the rotor spins a lot less than the original and stops way more abruptly too.
