Could Omega really allocate full yearly production of 321 cal in A13 50th and have it delivered June '20?

There will certainly be not more than 1970!

Obviously Omega didn’t listen attentively and this is why the brought almost 7000 pcs of Apollo XI this year. 🍿 As of my understanding Omega cares just for the turnover figures. Saw close to 7000 pcs were entirely sold in, so why should they care and make forthcoming Apollo XIII in less than that? That would be SFR 15-20 mln lost in vain.
Why do you think that?
Some think it will use the 321, but we know a normal SS version will be north of $12k, so an Apollo 13 would be way more than that . I don't see it. More likely to use the new 3861 with a similar price of the Apollo 11 50th. Edition size bigger than 1970.
Apollo 11 is different to Apollo 13.
Surely there will be 7,000 pieces, and in Chrono24 there will be 2,000 for sale, you will never have the investment that Snoopy silver has had.
We‘ll see... 😁
The 321 will definitely not be built into the XIII. 😀
I highly doubt the 321 Cal will be on the Apollo 13. If they can only produce 2000 Cal 321 per year and they have the platinum edition plus the SS edition. They cannot produce enough for all even if it’s a low number LE.
Besides with the new 3861 Mov. Already on the line of production seems the logical move to use this one.
Only time will tell 😉
Well there's a #SpeedyTuesday on 14th April 2020...
But apart from which "Metal Magic" Speedmaster Omega will come up with to celebrate 50 years Apollo 13, I'm most intruiged to hear a definitive explanation of the Apollo 13 fact that former NASA-engineer James Ragan recently told during the Fratello Speedmaster event in Hong Kong...
The audience was told that the 14 seconds LM DPS burn on Apollo 13 was timed by CMP Jack Swigert using... commander James Lovell's NASA-issued Speedmaster.
A remarkable fact as Jack Swigert was wearing both a NASA-issued Speedmaster and a personal Rolex GMT-master 1675. It would be amazing to hear James Lovell's account of this event ...
