Love the Ricochet design, I didn't wake up early enough to score one but have emailed Mr. Jones and joined the waiting list, hopefully if enough of us do likewise they'll consider a reissue at some point. And cheers to those that scored one, and to Ryan for another instant sellout!
Mr. Jones emailed back today and said they’ve had a lot of interest and Ricochet will be rereleased at some point in the future, with details to come via social media “in due course.” Great news for those of us that struck out yesterday (and of course great news for Ryan)!
Quoted from fiberdude120:Didnt they release these with a 150 limited production?
Limited to 100 numbered watches. But I gather that for super-popular designs they'll sometimes tweak things a bit (e.g. different colors) and re-release as an unnumbered non-LE. I think that's what happened with the toon godzilla watch and maybe some of the others in their "permanent" collection.
Quoted from Atari_Daze:I made the mistake of mentioning Ryan's work to my spouse at dinner the other night.
She ask, but if they are sold out would I like another piece from Mr. Jones, reluctantly I said yes.
Tell her to hold on a minute and order you a Ricochet once they drop the unlimited version! Unless you're thinking get one now, and then get another one later, in which case carry on.
Quoted from NicoVolta:Not mine, but someone is selling one on eBay. First one I’ve seen… ebay.com link: Mr Jones Watches Ricochet Pinball Robot Watch BRAND NEW IN BOX NEVER WORN
Quoted from cait001:sold for $760 USD
Time for Mr Jones to run that unlimited edition!
Quoted from Darcy:From the posted links above. The 2nd edition lacks the window on the pop bumper, and the 2 playfield inserts, which allowed for viewing the movement working.
From ReadyPO's post, it looks like the background image and color was also changed. Hard to tell if other colors were tweaked or if that's just a variation in lighting for the two photos. But from Ryan's earlier comments it sounds like Mr. Jones commonly uses color tweaks to differential LEs from second runs. It is a shame they dropped the "animation" effect on the playfield though, that seemed like a cool feature to me.
Quoted from spfxted:How much was the original?
I want to say it was the same price? Maybe it was $345 or something, but definitely in the $300s anyway.
That's a nice looking watch! The metal foil on the robots is just perfect. I was bummed about removal of the playfield animation feature, but am now getting a little tempted to pull the trigger anyway ...
Quoted from ReadyPO:Came today. Very nice packaging. Beautiful watch!
And sent from the future, no less! (Or Europe, I guess, but Europe's also technically in the future).
Mr. Jones 15th Anniversary Sale going on now, substantial savings on Ricochet! I finally pulled the trigger (with PayPal exchange rate I saved a few extra bucks ordering in Pounds on the British site, $257 and still free shipping to the US, $265 shipped on the US site).

Quoted from RC_like_the_cola:Here's the black band. I got the regular one too, but primarily use this one. Ignore the crappy tattoo I need to get covered.
Looks sharp! I didn’t see the black stainless band on offer when I ordered yesterday so I just went with the default stainless.
