In my opinion, I doubt the OBs take a deposit down for a watch that may or may not come for the customer as they are directly linked/owned by Omega and it would give a bad reputation to the brand.
With that being said, the deposit was a no-brainer for me. I was glad to put my deposit down to secure my spot and be provided with an estimated timeline of when deliveries will start. Honestly, it was a breath of fresh-air compared to the Rolex treatment of "we'll call you when we call you."
