It’s a new limited edition that will be sold out by the time I get out of bed. Screw Omega.

What's it gonna be? As straight forward as a modern 321 with alpha hands?
Are you on instagram?

S..T! I exposed myself. 🤦

Why, do you want to follow me? 😁

I got an account for work then one for myself after being bugged by retired brother, don't use facebook, and spend too much time looking at animal posts (mostly dogs but sometimes donkeys and never snakes), which I spam to my daughters, as any good dad is expected to do.

As of this writing, it is still only the 2nd, so that tracks 😝

LOL join the club. 321 and Snoopy. At least I can genuinely say to myself I don’t need any more Speedies for a good while
You can say it. But do you believe it 😀

"Look up..."

What's up?

The ISS, but that is scheduled to end soon.

Mars, but there is a Mars watch.

Artemis? The full (unlikely) program calls for an extended base on the moon. Maybe Omega is thinking about a new manual winding speedy for Artemis?

Stars? The first Constellation designed for space? Not likely, because NASA would need to qualify it.

Like others have said, a 3861 powered watch but one that has been tested and qualified by NASA for space?

What else?

Maybe an Aventurine Dial. The Omega photo shows stars. Based on the photo, it could be a ceramic case with aventurine. Something new would be more exciting than a homage.

Wait, will it chime out the moonphase? Well-moneyed, sight-impaired astronomers need to know ASAP.

I received a call from my local OB for a small event this Friday October 4th. They said they will have a few pieces of the FOIS 2024.

Hm,

will we see a mixture of the old FOIS and the 321Steel (and both than discontinued?), or a complete new 3861 FOIS close to the old FOIS?

~ 1 hour left and we will know :🍿::🍿::🍿:

Likewise had my OB tell me they would have a piece in to view today, and I was already heading that way, so should have hands on in about 5 hours from now. I'm not taking any bank cards with me....!!
