Born-on date (*) as an indicator of supply in the logistics chain

I looked at the outer box today and noted my M10 was built on December 12th of last year. It was delivered on January 23rd of this year. In the past, the shortest build-to-deliver to Los Angeles was 7 days, so if people add their build dates to this thread, when we see the interval drop to 7 days, we will have evidence that the logistics backlog of built cameras is cleared. Does that help?

Mine was 12/8 and delivered 1/19. They are seemingly producing them as fast as they can and feeding their distribution chain pretty efficiently. I had wondered whether, with all the new Leica Stores opening around the world, there would be huge gaps between Announcement and delivery. Even though stores are only getting one or two at a time, seems like they are getting them into dealers' hands pretty efficiently.

That was the plan when they built the new factories...

Mine was off the line on 20 Feb, sent out on 22 Feb and the shop received it on 24 Feb from which I then had my grubby fingers all over it.
