Wow, where did you get it ? They only sell them through the Lego website since yesterday here... Ordered one.
Will be perfect next to the Saturn V...

Yes, purchased from Lego store in U.S. Interesting that it came with a patch as does the Omega 50th (well, two patches). What am I going to do with all of these patches?
Looks great next to the Saturn V. I'm envisioning the Omega 50th on its Lunar Module stand beside them!

·I’d love it if they did without all of the space nonsense.
😕... 😕... 😕... But Isn't it all about "the space nonsense"???

·Well I guess someone here, that has both, will try that combination at some point.
It is highly unlikely that you will be able to walk in to an AD or OB and just order the bracelet on its own, but I‘m sure folks will eventually figure out how to make it happen.

I thought so.
Well I suppose there were a few other things in 1969 that we could be using as an excuse to party. Maybe Omega are being canny, as the 9 o’clock sub-dial can be swapped out...
They could swap Buzz for something representing:-
Boeing 747 first flight, BAC-Aérospatiale Concorde maiden flight and first supersonic flight, Hawker Siddeley Harrier entry into service, 100th anniversary of Alcock and Brown's crossing of the Atlantic, Hawker Siddeley Nimrod entry into service, Woodstock Festival or just keep things plain childish with Sesame Street.
No, It’s definitely about "the space nonsense"

·Hi, which boutique is having an opening evening, would be interested in attending?
Its Beaverbrooks in Trafford Centre, i had an invite to attend but i'm away on holiday
same happened last year, i enquired about the watch the day Omega released details and they said they were taking 20% deposits and sent me the form to fill in which states it doesn't guarantee a watch and the deposit is refundable, i didn't bother in the end as i'm still not sure on it 🤔

OK cheers for the response, hope the 20% deposit does guarantee a watch as I have my heart set on this now.

Well i hope you get one as i know how it feels to want something and yet have to wait till you get the ok, meant to say it was for Wednesday 18th June but can't remember the time, i'm gutted i'm away as it stated they would have the new 2019 collection of Omega watches on show along with some grub and a little aperitif to water it down with 😉

·Anyone who buys this LE will be able to go to an OB and order a bracelet. Of 6969 people getting one, my guess is many will do so and they’ll be available FS before too long.

·Only if they can be retrofit to an older case, and we don't know if this is possible. Even if they are compatible you'll find very few on the secondary market, most owners of the 11 will also own other Speedmasters that they will fit this on. It's just a dream to think these will come on the market in any quantity, maybe a few but that's all.

·I got the rare chance to see the 50th in the flesh today 
I'm not 100% sold 🤔 (...yet 😜 ) and there is that small detail of a €9.1K price tag... 😲

·Still not convinced. The 3861 movement is so far removed from the original 321/861/1861. The ‘milk ring’ on the sapphire. Not sure on Buzz. It may be different in the flesh. Does it boil down to ‘are you a hesalite or sapphire’?
The gold looks great. It would be good to see it next to the Tokyo 2020’s for comparison.
