I was at my AD (in the Boston area) trying to get some 'intel' on my Trilogy Speedmaster's expected delivery date. They have a Trilogy Seamaster 300 available. The intended owner changed his mind and decided to acquire a different Omega. PM me if you interested in the AD's info.
Not long after I sent this, I finally received the call I've been waiting for - my '57 Trilogy Speedmaster has arrived:
Here's a couple of shots of the Seamaster 300 I mentioned:
Once again, PM if interested and I will provide the AD's contact info.
HAGWE!

Thanks the sharing of Mark!
In addition, OMEGA should do the quality control well.
There are several obvious defects on the inner of the special box, which appeared on Mark’s picture and mine.
When I told that to my AD, the manager gave me the no good answer: “the SMLE price is not expensive like Rolex Submariner, so we don’t ask OMEGA more”. #*^#+*!?

Thats a rubbish answer.
James,
I bought 2 Trilogies, Railmaster and Speedmaster.
One from AD and one from Boutique, (in no order to point fingers)
The Speedmaster was NOT touched by ANYONE, (they know I’m OCD), and had a white cover over the black leather watch roll. I suppose I could dig out the boxes and take photos.
The Railmaster unfortunately was handled and set up as presentation for when I picked it up. Their were black marks on the corduroy and I have tried cleaning with no success. I immediately asked for paper towels to cover the black leather to limit further ‘contamination’.
I’m sure it was unintentional and an oversight.
I dare say had I known about the white fabric bag, covering the watch roll, I would have rejected the Railmaster box for a new one.
I hope this helps, just my experience.
Obviously we’ve been but it’s time to strike back and the rebirth of the RM with its Limited Edition is the perfect opportunity to bring more variation into the world of Omega watches.
Please don’t get me wrong, really no offence meant, but I’m always a bit amused how much care and attention some people give to their boxes and the whole package. I can understand this level of concern over the actual watch but the boxes?
But to each his own … 😗
Oh Lord, just checked my emails and have seen one from my local OB saying something is waiting for me. Have to go there tomorrow ... 😀
