Hi, I've done this a couple of times. They have an ipad and you can choose the style of watch, dial, casing, strap etc. You can also monogram the back. Yes, if you order 2 you get a wooden box, which honestly is not THAT super special. Just a brown wooden box. I don't think it's worth it to get a second watch just for the box honestly. One of our orders was held up because they said the box needed something engraved and it was stuck in Switzerland for weeks. Sounded really fancy, but when we got it, the engraving was just a small thing on a small metal plate, AND they forgot to glue it on! :facepalm: I do love the watches I got and they were in combinations not typically available. Just be aware that some dials are only available for certain style of watches. For example, the dial I chose was only available on a Nantucket style watch. It took 4-5 months for one set to arrive, and like 10-11 months for the second set. Don't know why the big difference! It's a fun event, hope you enjoy!
Thanks so much for this detailed information, now I know what to expect.
 
Thank youu for the warm welcome! Glad I found this H lovers community.

A bit of story time, I was invited by the end of April and while I was searching for some inspiration, I found this thread. Some beautiful watches we have here! Eyeing for the RGHW already for future SOs (lol).

Will definitely post a pic here when it arrives, but here’s the mockup that was sent to me after ordering.

Love it so so much! The MOP dial supposedly has pinkish-greenish hue that I think would be perfect with this strap 🥰🥰

Just ordered my first SO watch last week! Chose the Nantucket with MOP dial for versatility and medium sized mauve pale alligator strap. Said it will be delivered within 5-6mos. Can’t wait!
Hi your watch looks really lovely, especially the strap colour. Mind if I ask the cost? Thanks.

Placed my order for this year. The diamond encrusted casings were tempting but I resisted and stuck to the less sparkly combination I’ve been looking for 😆
May I ask if you're in the US? I looked at the iPad today with all of the possible options for the nantucket and for some reason, the plain stainless steel case isn't available for selection. :(
