    Nice. That must be like the most significant watch ever. Don’t ever consider selling that one.

    Oh.

    You’d love my story on the hulk - right up your street.

    Bagged one 12% below RRP back in 2014

    You could sell that and make a huge profit. Enough to buy this 50th Apollo 11 speedy again on the profit alone.

    Had a chance to see the steel version in person at the Zurich airport display. The watch looks great and those who purchased it will not be disappointed. I wish I could have tried it on and saw how it looked on the wrist but it was in a display. :(

    Wow, he has had a lot of views on this video, a hell of a lot, a really popular channel, there have been a massive 215 views, most of those are probably OF members going via the link earlier in the thread.

    Spends 10 minutes slamming a pair of limited edition pieces with a brand new alloy and brand new movement as "uninteresting"

    "NOW let's get to that velcro STRAP!"

    I'm not giving a view.
    The limited Speedy is growing on me. I'd like to own one but I'd lean more towards the 2020 Olympics models.

    Slams the new movement but wants it announced as the new movement in the Speedmaster as updating and moving progressively forward but thinks they would be better of reissuing the old 321. ::screwloose::

    This guys a nut job that talks without thinking about what he’s actually saying. Best thing I heard in the whole video was the sound of the Velcro opening :D

    Gets my knobjockey of the week award :thumbsup:

    You mean he didn't spout absolute bullshit in order to make money at the expense of fellow forumites? He's got it arse about face though since he thinks the steel is nicer than the gold, but seems to like neither. He does pick up on the ass-tastic sub dial shot and the fact it has been pushed out the door in massive volume minus the 321 movement which are valid criticisms. I tuned out during the long bit about straps. He seems down on both watches but is so dull I don't suppose it will matter since who will sit through the whole thing?

    That aside, I like the guy, is he on here?

    I thought for sure Omega would release another Speedy today and with the new 321 movement...

    Any inside baseball knowledge out there?
