    I can easily think of a couple of better ways to spend 120k CHF. Although, the fact that houses restored 18" CHRO movements from the original model sounds quite a new approach to me.
    Are we gonna see a LE solid yellow gold 105.012 with restored cal. 321 next year for the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11? Lol

    O.K. something old in a new package... only 18 pieces made... a true LE
    Can't believe the next #SpeedyTuesday would come out barely a week later... as some suggested July 10th :thumbsdown:

    LOL.... you got a point there. but my cell phone does that already along with more functions than a wristwatch. just joking haha.

    Announcement day is so close I'm getting so excited! I hope it looks great but I also hope it looks ugly/boring.... I don't need more Speedmasters and then I can also buy the Rolex I've been wanting. haha. But it would look great paired with my speedytuesday from last year.

    Just got off the phone with my AD. Its a Red Racing x Ultraman reissue dubbed "Speedy Tuesday 2: The Battle for Tokyo". Price $6500. Announced on Instagram July 10th.

    Just kidding. Or am I?

    One correction: I'm pretty sure I heard they are just going to call it "Speedy Twosday:TB4T" ;)

    Do you think Omega is holding on to a couple 321 movements to troll everyone on the 100th year anniversary in 2057?

    I just received a telegram from my friend's uncle's roommate, Omega is definitely announcing the "2 Speedy 2 Tuesday" Limited Edition on July 10th and it will have a moon-rock dial, each personally autographed and licked by Buzz Aldrin

    I doubt Buzz Aldrin would be involved. All else checks out (Mind forwarding me that telegram? My TG is @BenBagbag).

    I'm waiting for the Dietz & Watson Speedmaster line. It'll smell like a bunch of baloney.

    Calling it now, red racing dial Speedy. July 10th is the day based on a conversation with my AD. They did say plus or minus a couple of days but Tuesday is obviously the day.

    Don't forget the reflective caseback that mimics the glare off of the astronaut's helmet visor from the sun

    Reincarnating the Ultraman would be smart. Nothing screams "RARE" and "LIMITED" like an orange chrono hand on an otherwise normal Speedmaster. Great profit potential for Omega.

    Yes in terms of an easy profit, just slap an orange minute hand on it and call it a day::bleh::

    I would like to see another mixed design edition, much like the first

    Anything with a readable radial dial and/or a 60-minutes bezel would be fine...

    Oh but it can be fun to speculate, even if it is useless!

    I just got off the phone with my AD, and he confirmed that there will be no Speedy Tuesday release this year
