·If, as some have heard it's limited production over 2 years, it's basically a limited edition under a different guise.
I still think 6,970 pieces being another prominent 50th anniversary milestone in Omega's history 😗

As to what your current Omega AD told you below,
"I bought one Omega at another AD but he told me again (as for the Apollo 11 50) that I have no chance of getting any sought after LEs from him."
I would of of looked at him straight in the face and told him quite clearly to not only forget about the current sale he was ringing up but to forget about any chance of seeing any money spent by me with him ever and walked out. I then suggest you find a better AD or Boutique that are going to actually value you as a customer and not treat you as if they were doing you a favour or you owed them something for being able to give them money for a product they are selling.
You and we are not their for the pleasure of an AD or Boutique of any manufacturer they are their to serve us with goods in exchange for our money if they have an attitude like the AD you mention they would never see a penny of my money ever.

·As I mentioned before: Fact of life is omega will want to reap maximum value for themselves by selling these mostly through OB (preferably those OB they owned) rather than through AD who will likely get a very very small handful of them (Not enough to go round except to their vip). Go to OB not AD if you wish to secure one
what’s OB?

I think
I’m not sure where you are located but you should see if you have an official Omega Boutique. Looks like they are the only ones taking deposits.
Yes, I have phoned my official boutique too here in Canada. They are not taking deposits. 🙁

·Are there any laws that prohibit putting down a deposit like some of the other countries? I guess you can always call first thing on 10/5 or show up when they open. Sorry to hear about that.
yeah if I like what i see, will call and put down deposit

Not really sure why you quoted my post as it was just giving an opinion on how someone was being treated by an AD they were doing business with and of course whilst AD's and Omega Boutiques will of course have favoured clients that will get priority buying watches should help get you there being told you will never even be considered is not the way to get loyal customers IMO.
@all
I am based in the UK so as far as I am aware no deposits are being taken and yes usually most AD's and Omega Boutiques will have favoured clients to whom they will offer these watches first to. But on speaking with my local Omega Boutique within a major watch store the one I had purchased my Apollo 8 from last year I just happened to get the sales lady that I dealt with for that. They are not running a waiting list as such but are making note of those who express an intertest to whom they will then send as much information as possible as it becomes available. She also mentioned that they would get approval as to who can get a watch or not which is not something I have heard before in this thread and seems a strange course of action if this model is indeed not a Limited Edition. Anyone else hear anything similar direct from an Omega source? or has she got this totally wrong?

·Why 6970. It happened in 1970. So 7070 sounds more logical ?
Just applying the same logic for the Snoopy 50th - 5,000 + year = 6,970 😁
