There is no viable explanation or excuse for the existence of this piece other than this particular designer MUST be related to the owner of the company.
I do not understand.. But as ugly as this piece is now, I think the story will be another in a couple of weeks, when the design first sinks in...
Thank you for the real-life wrist shot. Man, it reminds me of how shiny those polished lugs are....I'm more of a brushed steel guy...I need to give this some thought...
Love this release, but a part of me can't get past how these watches feel like "Watchco" refurbs because of how closely they resemble the originals...
Can anyone confirm if the trilogy set is available without that silly text? (Outside of buying all 3 separately)
It definitely is not available without the silly text if you're buying the LE trilogy set. Fratello confirmed with Omega. You can buy them separately (the no-extra text versions) but Omega won't facilitate you getting all 3 with the same serial number.
I for one love that aged lume! That will ensure that each time I think of putting away money for that Seamaster, I'll dismiss the notion entirely. Thanks Omega!
Agreed! I don't mind "fake" patina. At the end of the day what is it about patina that everyone loves and searches for? The perfect color or shade of yellowish. I think it's more about the color and how it compliments the aesthetics of the dial.
Another shot of the 2915 from RJ @ Fratellowatches but this time without the trilogy script on the dial:
Total is over $7800 with tax for the Speedy 57. I have until Sunday to put down the 100% deposit. The watch is nice but I've having second thoughts because of, well, the regular Speedy Pro. This is about 250% more expensive :/
I know what you mean, but if WatchCo ever made a 2915 with all original parts for $6K, I'm sure they would be all gone the minute they offer them.
Its @Robert-Jan in the pic, and I'll definitely let him know you said that about him so he can hit you with his handbag.
For some reason as I look as t it on this pic it seems to busy. It's the compressed subdial because of size ( and I actually like the size so not arguing it should be larger) and the brown-mustard lume and black dial and steel case and hands and white subdial markers...... Simple it is not. Too many contrasting design features maybe
