The dial and this new crystal are absolutely stunning 😍
Stunning pics indeed. Now you've made me want one of these. Damn it! 🤣
PS- I already have the original FOIS

Can any new owners take a side profile picture to see how thick it looks?

One nice thing about this release is that they were actually in the store when they were announced. Gotta hand it to Omega for doing that. Don’t know of another company that has the watches in the store when they announce them.

Whilst i love these and give all kudos to Omega for a beautiful release, i am eagerly awaiting the PFOIS (Pre First Omega In Space) which are arguably the more desirable items 😀 Until then I might have to just be content with this wabi specimen …

Isn't the trilogy the PFOIS?

It would be yes! What I was thinking in my above post was 2998-1~3 😎

Understood, however wouldn't Omega get skewered like they got with all the endless stream of LE's if a 2998 got added to the line up?

Unlike the white one...

I like the combination of looks, fit, and modern movement so I brought one home. 😁 Side note: They have the Omega logo etched in the center of the sapphire.

I have been to my AD today. He told me they havent received any yet. And he doesnt really know how long it takes for one to arrive (and white Speedys just started arriving slowly now), since there havent been a single order yet. So basically there are a few people interested to look at it and have expressed their interest, but nobody wants to order/pay one like they did with EdWhites and Snoopys.
Its a good thing i think as it means less people speculating and more availability in close future.

He said he will try to order one and will let me know when he knows more.

interesting side fact.. he mentioned Omega introducing a new Snoopy in 2025. 😉

My AD says it's hard for them to get, just like the white one earlier this year. My OB 200 miles away where I got my white one says I could have one of these in a couple weeks. Also said a current Snoopy is still possible, and believes there won't be another until the 60th anniversary.

Finally got my new white one back from warranty service and the first thing I did was see if it has the symbol. It does not, which kinda is a bummer.

🤯 If true, you are probably the first to mention it.

I'm not opposed to that, but I would be quite surprised. Like SpeedyPhill, I have been hoping for an Apollo-soyuz 50th anniversary in 2025. I can't imagine an Apollo-soyuz/Snoopy combo, but it's possible.

Oh my, look what you've done. The rumor mill is cranked up to 11.

I have a 105.002. (Not exactly a FIOS) I just received my FOIS. Really nice everyday wear watch that is a nice interpretation of the original, nice addition to my Speedmaster collection.
