The Ironside 200's presale is filling up, and fulfilment starts in August. If you've ordered one, or you're still deciding, here's what actually happens between now and the watch landing on your wrist.

What's in the Box

Every Ironside 200 ships with the watch on your chosen bracelet or strap, the two additional straps included with your order, a warranty card, and a padded travel case. There's no stripped-down version, presale orders get the same packaging as retail.

Sizing Before You Wear It

The bracelet ships with extra links attached, since DeMarco can't know your exact wrist size in advance. You'll need to remove links to get a proper fit before wearing it daily, a loose bracelet is the most common complaint with any new watch, and it's a five-minute fix rather than a flaw in the watch itself.

Registering Your Warranty

The warranty card in the box needs registering on demarcowatches.com within 30 days of delivery to activate the two-year cover. It takes a couple of minutes, and it's worth doing on delivery day rather than letting it slip.

The Short Version

Box, watch, two spare straps, warranty card. Size the bracelet before you wear it. Register the warranty within 30 days. Then it's just a watch you wear.
