    Well... SpeedyTuesday got established as an internet/instagram powered "movement" and probably some already know more than others ?

    It’s nice to have new things from the manufacturer but like every limited edition watch, particularly made by Omega, these will be readily available in new condition on forums and websites for the next 18 months. You may even get them for less than retail if you wait 8 months or so. Because Omega makes so many LE watches it’s impossible to keep up. If Rolex made a LE run of 2,200 watches people would literally lose their minds and the prices would quadruple within minutes. I can understand stressing out over that but knowing these Omega LE watches will be available at any time in the coming future doesn’t make me lose any sleep

    I think there might be fewer people taking a chance on flipping for a quick profit, apart from the snoopy, instant fortunes have not been made on anything released after that. Hopefully the madness has stopped and those who want to buy the watch because they like it will get the chance to buy one.

    Hardly the image I would use to tease a new interpretation of the Ultraman.

    Where are the explosions? The spaceships? Helmets? Bug Eyes? Whatever!

    And no Orange streaks, lasers or skidmarks in sight.

    Maybe there's been a mix-up at HQ and the ST2 is a Constellation?. ;)

    What was the thread late last year with someone's predictions. ( thread went for 10 or so pages )

    Sure there was a vintage watch in there that didn't come out at Basel

    A 321 speedy?

    Unlocked suggests something that hasn’t been used in a while, rather than a simple limited edition

    Looking at the font on the key we’re going way before the 321.

    You think they have a different box and key for each time they changed the font? ;)

    I have a hard time believing that image has anything to do with a Speedmaster. Unless they are going reeeeallly retro and producing a Steampunk Speedy pocket watch :cautious:

    As said there was a thread started by someone that was chatting to a Boutique staffer and he rattled of most of what came out at Basel and mentioned a watch with the same font as the key ( which didn't appear at Basel )
    It was before the Basel Wishlist thread but I can't find it.
    Member without a avatar threw post up but never answered any questions.

    Omega does make other watches, not just Speedmasters :D The IG post today looks to be something entirely different.

    Why isn't Omega coming out with a SpeedyWednesday next? Then they could come out with a SpeedyThursday, a SpeedyFriday, a SpeedySaturday, a SpeedySunday, and a SpeedyMonday also. I mean, what does a SpeedyTuesday owner do when it's not Tuesday?

    .... oh, wait.... he probably wears a different Speedmaster. Nevermind! ::facepalm2::

    Seriously - Omega should make a Speedmaster for every day of the week because they know you SFBs will buy all 7. :p
