Though now it’s more then just the 10% gst to import goods here to Aus since the gov handed the collection and paperwork over too the couriers 🙁
Yes, I did buy and received within days of ordering. I bought it immediately upon seeing this thread which alerted me to the opportunity.
Yes, received everything (presentation box, etc) except warranty card.
So any issues with the watch directly with Joma. What is the warranty that they offer?

OK, so full disclosure here - I have a 50th that I bought from an OB. I got on list early, paid depost, etc...Very happy with watch and now makes three Apollo 11 LE's that I have (35th, 40th, and 50th). When this thread started I went to the Jomashop website to see if truly available. It was and so I bought immediately with the idea of making a profit. I am not normally a flipper (in fact this is the first watch I've sold) and indeed am happily keeping my 50th from the OB. Also importantly - I wasn't taking an allocation from anyone who might be on lists or waitlists by buying from Jomashop. Watch was sold within a week of receiving it and new owner very happy with watch.

Fair enough you payed a good price!!
My concern when buying any watch with an in house movement that is supplied with a sellers warranty is what happens if watch fails during the warranty period.

Just as a datapoint did you sell the watch, less warranty card, at or above the retail price? Personally, you saw an opportunity and jumped on it, no reason to apologize or feel guilty, too many people freak out at the idea of someone making money on a new watch.

Did you tell the buyer of your Joma one that that don't have an Omega warranty? Just curious?
