    Hey Guys,

    So got the big 'we're expecting a baby' over the weekend and my planned Apollo mission pieces have been grounded!
    I will be selling my Apollo 13 Silver Snoopy Award and Apollo 11 45th Anniversary Editions brand new straight from the Omega Retailer once I receive them (likely early December been told)

    Open to offers and happy to meet the buyer or post (but meeting might be a better idea!)

    Apologies if this is in the wrong place not sure if there is a sales thread?

    Taz

    Sorry just realised there is a sales thread if a mod could move it (although I haven't technically got them yet)

    Ah ok thanks will do. Is it ok to post library pics as I don't have them yet or must it only be once I have possession? A mod can close this thread.

    Parents-to-be often get freaked out by how much kids cost. Generally not that much to start with. Apart from somewhere to sleep, nappies (diapers), a buggy and some clothes, and a few toys, babies tend not to need much expenditure early on. Nights out will be fewer so you'll save money that way, and holidays (vacations) with a baby tend not to be that much more expensive than without one - often they travel free up to the age of two or three.
    It's only when you get to later years, maybe school fees, college etc that things get more pricey, but even then, a Snoopy watch (at today's RRP)would only cover maybe a term's fees at a UK private school, or less than half a year's university fees at current rates of £9k per year.
    My advice, FWIW, enjoy the watches, look forward to the baby, and if things get really tight then you can still sell them (the watches, not the baby). And if things are ok financially, then dangling the Silver Snoopy in front of the kid should encourage good behaviour until his or her 21st.

    Sell the wife and the baby, keep the watches.......only joking, selling the baby should be enough

    Congratulations on the baby. Don't sell the watches, save them for your kid

    Congrats on the news of your new baby! As watch guys, our natural instinct is to jump up and down and try to convince you not to sell. I'm not going to do that. Do what is right for your family. These watches will be available anytime you want down the road.

    You just made someone very happy re: the Snoopy. Ive got one already, or I'd jump all over this one, and as tempted as I am to get two of them, I'll let this one pass by to somebody who really wants their first.

    My wife told me I could pick a new watch out when we have our first kid. I love my wife (I have to say that in case she's keeping tabs ;))

    Good luck with your 1st, I'd take over your order if I'm in the UK. Just on the Boutique's official list for now but I'm not expecting anything anymore with the way this has been rolled out. Not a huge deal as there are other watches to buy hah.
