Breaking News: The New Steel Speedmaster With Caliber 321 “Ed White”

Not sure if he really afraid getting captured by camera, but he said he is waiting his snoopy, and it will arrived soon, if everything he said is true then of course he is a flipper, and I think it is ok to be a flipper too, if I call omega for confirm the watch will I become the bad guy for ruining his business. Is it true if you get caught selling watch privately will removed from omega vip list?

And ask yourself why he wouldn't just jump on Chrono24. Even if he listed it to be the cheapest on there he'd still make 25% or more reselling.

Speaking of which, there must have just been a DUMP of the Ed White onto the market. Chrono24 went from 6 listings to 21 in a week. Assuming every Ed White that gets sent to the OBs doesn't end up on there, probably had 3 months worth of 321s get sold all of a sudden.

There’s been about 15/20 of them on there for the last 2 months....it’s not been as low as 6 for months.

Weird, I must have hit the magic keyword/ref to bring the rest up. I'd only been getting 5 or 6. Anyway, point being if this guy is legit flipping a piece he bought, he'd been asking for way more than he is.

.Unless this fella only bought to increase his sales and up his chances for a snoopy.

The watch looks good to me. The plastic shipping box, black piece of sponge, hang tag all look legit. It is true that Omega does blacklist people for selling certain hard to find models even if the sale is not for a profit. If he is a VIP, then he should have a decent collection of Omega watches. Maybe ask him to show you his collection and related paperwork to validate? If that checks out, it is unlikely that it is stolen property.

I think it’s too late for now, the seller already relisted the watch as “overseas set”, and already reserved in few hour, I think that’s certainly something wrong about seller, he gave me all the information except his name. And the customer name on the receipt is Olivia but the seller is a guy which not very common in Asia.

Warranty card looks different from mine, I got my 321 in Dec 2020 and it came with the "newer style" warranty card and the Ion OB name and address printed same font as the other text. They told me they just printed the warranty card a few hours before I came in.

Maybe they ran out of the new style warranty card for this 321....just seems strange that if all the s/n on the watch, invoice and warranty card matches, he is reluctant to give his name. Does not make sense he wants to remain anonymous whilst the invoice has a name and the OB would know who the watch was sold to anyway if someone else picked up/paid for it as the Ion OB knows their VIP customers very well and I am sure they remember this 321 as it just sold in the same month. It's not like the OB gets allocated a 321 every other week.

Realistically, there are two possibilities:
1) The watch is stolen so he’s happy getting close to retail.
2) The watch is fake so he’s really happy making close to retail.

In both cases you can see why he wouldn’t want to go into the OB. If they identify it as stolen or fake he can bolt.

No other possibility makes sense unless you’re willfully ignoring all the red flags. I’d personally walk away from the deal and just buy one from the OB when I got the chance because I don’t want to support whatever that person is doing, whether it’s flipping, fencing a stolen watch, or selling a fake.
