Some discount on this model? Or I’m dreaming ?
Dreaming big time. Maybe in a few years as more become available and original owners want to sell out of theirs to get something different. Right now though with the current supply and demand, discounts are a dream.

I picked mine up ~3 weeks ago in Hawaii at my local OB.

Congrats, I had heard Hawaii had some deliveries. Hopefully I will be in the next batch.

It’s worth the wait! Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

I asked about my 321 last week not overly impressed with the response but it is what it is, the OB reckons that the UK will only receive around 100 of the new 321's per year, with 140+ OB's to serve that means that each OB will only receive around 1 watch every 15 months, so the estimate for me to get my 321 is about 5 years.

🙁

Hopefully that's wrong and it's much less than that but with only 1200 or so being produced each year that is so few watches for so many countries, I have a sinking feeling that it may be longer.

However, if I am interested in the Platinum version that can be acquired much quicker, its only £50k+ 😲

Lol.

I’m guessing anyone ordering a platinum 321 goes to the front of the queue and if that person also wants a SS 321 that will also jump the queue.

Wow, that is a long time... I'm not sure how many are coming to the US market, but I placed a deposit for a 321 in October and I was told that it would take approximately 2 years before I would see one. It sounds like the wait may be longer than was initially estimated.

The availability of the 321 was always going to be a drawn out process, exactly how many SS watches will be made each year is dependent on how many Platinum watches are ordered, I thought only a few hundred Pt watches but others felt considerably more but irrespective of whether Omega make 1700 or 1200 SS 321 watches per year quantities arriving in countries is going to be painfully small, I think that you are going to have to be on extremely good terms with your OB team to get one in the next few years.

I'm happy to wait, if it takes five years then so be it, that is what it takes.

I’m in it for the long haul as well, no issues on the wait time. This watch will probably be my last watch purchase, it will be fun waiting for one and once it arrives wearing it for years to come.

Somehow I doubt it!

I thought the same but I don’t think it will be my last speedy either! Although I’ve been enjoying my 321 after my delivery, I’m already looking forward to the Snoopy 3. However, if I had to just keep 1 speedy, it will definitely be the 321.

You could be right... 😉 I keep thinking that the next one will be my last... The 321 would be a good finale watch though!

Congratulations on your 321!! My situation is reversed. I have a Snoopy 3 on order as well, which I am expecting to get before the 321 (hopefully)...

I received my 321 in September , waiting on Snoopy. I don’t know when I’ll receive Snoopy. I have a theory that they may be trying to make distribution fair for customers who ordered both (ie. if you got 1 early, you may have to wait for the other). Even Sacha Davidoff, who received 1 of first 3 snoopy’s delivered in Switzerland said he passed on 321 to get snoopy early in his instragram post. I wish there was more transparency, but I have to trust they are rewarding long standing customers first.

Just got the call from the Houston boutique that my 321 arrived, and is being sent to me on Saturday.

I was originally #3 on the list, so in theory 2 more came out of the Houston boutique before me - but, I did not yet ask whether those two before me took their orders.

Anyhow, some more data on roll-out, and an incoming.... *eggplant emoji*
