I'm surprised. Where are you located? I was under the impression that they were not sold out yet. I ordered mine at the OB in NYC and as of last month they were still available.

This trio was ordered in Basel fair by Omega Ads.(Not by only official Omega Ads, some Ads which they sell multiple brands in a store includes Omega brand)

So It will be only possible to buy it from an Ad like this when their order has arrived to them if it's not sold before it arrived to the store. Because, they usually offer it to a well known customer without any discount and usually that customer accepts it before the watch arrives cause it's a very rare watch. I still think that it is still possible to buy it from an Ad which sell multiple brands includes Omega. It's still worth to try it.

I'm that well know person in this story and hopefully i'll receive my trilogy in the following days but I think there may still be a chance for me not to able to have it because as i know there is a huge stock problem in Omega about these watches.

Thanks guys, if anyone knows of an AD that has spare allocation I have the funds ready to pay the deposit in full for a guaranteed order.

Thanks again

I was able to order one today from the OB in Bellevue, WA. Had to place a full deposit as expected (and non-refundable fyi). The rep thought that August was still the target for delivery. Apparently, there are more, so the allocations (at least to OBs) aren't full, so I would imagine they are available anywhere. I also checked with the Vancouver, B.C. OB, and they had open allocations as well. I also only checked the speedy (not any of the others or the trilogy set).

Not sure where this is coming from, but refunds are absolutely 100% fully-refundable. Legally, boutiques can not hold your money without returning a good or a service.

Yes, that does seem suspect. If you plunked down $7k and walked out with an in-stock Globemaster then got buyer's remorse and brought it back unopened in 2 days, they'd have to refund you, no?

That would be good - the rep simply said it wasn't refundable on the limited edition if for some reason I didn't like it. Perhaps that was just sales being sales, cause it does seem fairly insensitive to the customer.

You might want to try the Atlanta USA Omega Boutique. It sounds like they can reserve you a Speedmaster with a refundable deposit.

Just to give you an insight on the situation in Germany:
My AD had only a single allocation available, which I was able to secure.
The OB in Berlin does not allow you to place any deposits. The only thing they do is put you on some sort of call-back-list for the case some units arrive -no guarantees.
According to the AD the watch will approximately arrive in September/October. The OB did not even bother to speculate 😀

That's just sales talk. You will be able to get a refund. No worries about it.

But then it wouldn't be a replica.
