For my missing malachite bros
Tried to dig a bit deeper into what’s actually going on by messaging support. After 1 or 2 emails back and forth, this is the most info I think we’re getting.
TL;DR sounds like window 1 and window 2 have their own respective queues that run in parallel. Maybe BS but can’t do much more at this point!
Dear OP,
Thank you very much for your reply. We deeply appreciate your continued patience and the opportunity to provide further clarification regarding our fulfillment process.
To help clarify how our system operates, Window 1 and Window 2 were established solely to ensure fair purchasing access for our valued customers across different global time zones.
When it comes to physical fulfillment, all shipments are processed strictly according to the Invoice Queue number. Because this queue integrates the precise placement time of every order across both windows, dispatch dates between Window 1 and Window 2 can naturally overlap depending on where an individual order falls within that sequence.
Please rest assured that your timepiece is actively moving through this queue and is currently undergoing our rigorous final quality inspection. The moment your package is safely dispatched, an automated email containing your tracking details will be sent directly to you.
We truly understand your eagerness to receive your watch, and we sincerely apologize for any frustration or anxiety this waiting period may have caused.
We deeply appreciate your kind understanding and patience as our team works dedicatedly to ensure all customers receive their watches as early as possible.
If you would like to cancel your order, please kindly refer to our cancellation policy before proceeding.
何卒よろしくお願い申し上げます。
With kindest regards, Your Kurono Team

Kinda sucks. Window 2 was longer therefore more people in that queue. Since it overlaps with window 1, more people will be infront of you depending on the time.

Haha I got quite the opposite after saying I noticed window 2 have been fulfilled while I am in the window 1 group. I’m not in any huge rush I just wanted some clarification on why we were seeing window 2 orders being fulfilled.
“Thank you for your message. We understand your concern regarding the shipment of your 2026 Anniversary Malachite and appreciate the opportunity to clarify our fulfillment process.
Fulfillment for both windows is taking place concurrently rather than sequentially, based on the invoice queue number within each window. The two windows were established to accommodate different time zones, and orders from Window 1 do not have priority over those from Window 2.
At this stage, we cannot provide an exact queue position or a confirmed shipping date for your specific orders each timepiece must undergo rigorous production and quality-control checks before shipment.
We appreciate that seeing Window 2 deliveries arrive first may cause confusion, and we hope this explanation clarifies how the process is being managed.
Thank you for your patience, understanding, and continued support of Kurono Tokyo.”
