Yes there was.. https://www.jamesbondlifestyle.com/product/vintage-omega-chronograph-caliber-321

 

Is this for sure, as not heard that before? Be very interested to know.

 

Fascinating. Thanks

 

Looks to be a delay on the NTD watch in the UK. Goldsmiths says 8 to 10 weeks and on the Onega website it says you have to sign up for a waiting list. Does anybody know why this is? When I saw the watch initially I didn’t like the mesh bracelet but after seeing it a few times something clicked in my head and I fell in love. I’ve also noticed you can get it under RRP (unworn) on eBay.

 

There sure was...and I just wish it was available to buy somewhere!

 

Beware of replicas going around ebay. There has been a few of these replicas on ebay which were selling but taken down after being reported. Some even managed to be sold. The cases of these replicas is also made in titanium and they look so good, it's often very hard to tell. Look out for serial number 82186396, thats the serial number the replica is using. So don't be fooled into paying thousands of dollars for a replica.

 

I picked one up on the NATO this afternoon during a random visit to my local OB. I told myself no new watches until I get the Blue Snoopy...

Unfortunately, no news of a short bracelet so I went with the NATO instead but no qualms here.

Quick question for those who have the watch:
Do you have any dimples or impressions in the lume plots? Maybe I'm just being picky but I just noticed some as I was taking lume shots and now I'm thinking about giving the OB a call tomorrow.

 

Pretty sure that's normal. Just part of the lume application. Doesn't look so bad. But if it bothers you maybe you can switch it with another piece to see if that one looks better.

 

Thanks for the heads up on this. I’m pretty sure the high end replicas mesh bracelet isn’t made of titanium but I will keep an eye. I’ve ended up purchasing from Mark Worthington Jewellers in the UK who had an unworn example. Although I purchased via EBay they are a well established bricks and mortar store. I saved £500 on the RRP. Can’t wait for it to arrive on Tuesday.

 

Yeah the mesh on the replica is still made of stainless steel. They even come with the brown pouch now. And they're gradually improving the look of the steel mesh to match the mesh pattern of the genuine bracelet. I won't be surprised if they'll come up with a titanium mesh sooner or later. Just something to be wary off for those who intend on buying this watch online from places such as ebay. Its getting harder to tell just buy looking at the watch from the front. Right now the easiest way to tell if its a replica is the serial number (82186396) and the fact that it only comes with one card, a fake Omega warranty card.

 

I just don't understand why they all use the same serial number? If they can make such a near replica, why aren't they smart enough to change the serials??

 

Well I'm not complaining. That's a good thing is it not??? We can always double check the serial number with the seller to be sure. That way it's easier to spot a replica without getting scammed into paying for it thinking its the real thing.

Probably just me but I don't want to pay over 9k for a watch online, and only to find out later some way or some how that its a replica.

 

Paying that sort of money on eBay to a private seller is madness anyway. Surely anyone in their right mind would wish to view and hold the item prior to paying?

 

What a sharp eye you have! Enjoy you watch. Nice piece. We just need the film to go with it. This is assuming of course that there are cinemas in which to show it (in the UK at least).

 

Don't forget to post a pic!!!

 

The wait has been frustrating. I had high hopes for November. All the promo they did recently only to suddenly announce another delay. I have doubts about an April release. This virus isn't going anywhere in 2021. At the current rate, unless they decide to go digital, we can forget about seeing the movie at all next year. I'll be surprised if they do go ahead with April.

 

Movie theaters literally won't survive if they can't get started by the end of the year 2020. Buildings still have costs, taxes, maintenance, etc

 

Oh, that's unfortunate. Still such a beautiful watch !

 

who has found a replica, I have not seen.

 

Thanks and likewise for NYC. Eek.
