Well, I'm not enthusiast about this release. I appreciate the step dial, applied logo and drop second hand, however this 9 subdial is tacky and ugly IMHO, and I'm not a fan of the two tone dial. As a lot here I hope the bracelet will be available separately, it would look cool on a regular speedy (with the polished part brushed). The price point is also pretty high considering the watch.
I can't imagine the 6969 pieces being sold out in the blink of an eye. Considering the price and the polarizing design it would be surprising. The Speedmaster trilogy which was very well received is still available new in some AD and seems hard to move on second hand market, while production number was half this 50th Apollo anniversary edition.
