What a stunning pair of watches (and really dig the strap changes implemented on both)!!! 50th FTW!! 馃槈
Thanks!! Been wearing it a bunch around the house today. Took some shots outside in the sunlight.



Was happy to see in the case back shot how well the 3861 bracelet fits. The end links sit flush to the case.

Many thanks @Pipes McGee, a quick update...

I've been running around in the background, numerous phone calls to OBs throughout London and emails to Omega explaining my situation.

I had given up as the OBs were saying their lists were effectively closed or their waitlist was >5 years, in effect the same, I also hadn't heard anything back from Omega.

Low and behold I received a response on Friday and Omega have added me to a waiting list with another AD. They can't confirm when I will receive my watch but I'm still in with a chance in getting one - thankyou for your efforts Omega 馃グ

I now need to reach out to the AD as my grail is a modern trio of Speedies.
Great and fair result.

Yes.
Great.

Gives me more hope that mine will come sooner if one more name in front of me is scratched off the list.

What a gorgeous watch...every effort to obtain one is time well spent...pun intended.

Maybe someday...

I have no opinion since I have never used them. I normally looked at Hirsch straps for more modern looks and B&S for more vintage looks.

I have four Genteel straps in small scale croc, Maya leather, Saffiano goat and Palmellato leather. All different materials, colors, linings and thread colors, all extremely well done to professional standards. Fairly priced.

Great to see deliveries picking up
More people seeing this piece in person will increase its lore well past the 45

Is it even possible to get one these days, for someone who has purchased other pieces at the boutique
