Any of you guys in the US hear any news about this yet?
One guy on Rolexforum based in the US received one in the past couple of days.

That was me. Picked mine up on Tuesday from OB in CO. It’s a great release. Omega did a killer job with this one. Whoever green lighted the decision to do a no date with the original aluminum tight wave dial deserves a raise. I also think the animation on the back is cool and tastefully done.
I was originally concerned with the thickness but in person it wears very well and is extremely comfortable and has a light weight feel to it.

They must be working their way into the US. The Chicago OB just sent me an invite to their 60yrs of James Bond event.

When is it? The Houston OB mentioned that theirs would be sometime in April.

Anyone got any hints on a reliable source that might be able to get me one sooner than 8-10 months?

Did you pre-order?

They claimed 75 people and 8-10 months and they require a $3,000 deposit.

I called my omega boutique back in November when they announced this thing and talked my sales rep, he told me I was the third person in line locally but never asked me for a down payment, I’m scared now because I haven’t heard anything from them since November, I was just assuming they would had follow through.

If you spent a lot with them you might be OK. I usually buy from an authorized dealer or grey, so I don't have much pull at this OB. I'm reaching out to a few places I've purchased before to see what their deal is.

Is your OB located in a big city? I would think that they get more of the incomings than the others. My OB in Atlanta last time I checked said they had only gotten two so far. I’ve got a little wait ahead of me on the list.

I live in San Antonio, I’m the type of buyer that if I don’t get it, it wasn’t meant to be, I just figured they haven’t been available stateside yet but I’m not in a rush really

They are definitely available in the United States. Chicago, Atlanta. I know have received some. There are two listed on Chrono24 that are in Pennsylvania.

I was given an estimate of 4-6 months by my AD, but they stopped taking deposits after the first 3 because they can no longer estimate when or if product arrives from Omega, and what will be in it.

I do like this release but I'm hesitant to preorder and certainly out down $$$ on an Omega again after my Snoopy experience.

The 321, Snoopy and now Bond 60th are the 3 watches that Omega has waiting lists on where demand is in excess of supply. And that's at boutiques who are getting pretty much all the supply of these.

We know on the first two supply is never going to catch up and lists are basically closed. Not sure what the plan is on numbers for the Bond 60th and how quickly they will get to market.

Unlike the 321 and Snoopy, there have been a decent amount of Bond 60’s already delivered. The Speedmasters took months before anyone saw anything
