Nope. Just joined! But I'm an imposter. Actually from OC but the Costa Mesa OB doesn't do refundable deposits so I don't mind making the drive.

 

Did not know this. Thanks to everyone for shedding some light

 

No new info, anyone?
I just can´t wait to get mine (speedy)... So today I bought the ref 2209.50.00 orange Planet Ocean... Makes the waiting a little bit more comfortable

 

I don't think there will be any new 'reliable' info until Omega starts notifying people that their watches are ready to be paid for and picked up.

 

And that won't be a fact until at least mid of June.

 

If anyone getting the Seamaster would like the dark brown leather strap from the Speedmaster, I would be willing to trade for your tan strap.

 

It's funny, when I first got my Railmaster a few years ago, the only strap I had that would fit it at the time was a beige NATO - and it actually looked pretty great. Could be cool on the LE - but I think it'd look better on the Seamaster brown strap instead of black

 

Nice one. Thanks.

 

All the NATO strap here looks so much better than the one they are including with the speedy Tuesday.

 

Love the Speedy 60th but currently have a Speedy Tuesday reserved. This shall have to do for now:

 

The more I look at the 60th anniversary Speedy the more I like this 3594.50. Great looking watch, none of the faux patina.

 

Hands are shagged on that one above though. Or is it faux shagged?

 

The more I see of the Speedy 60th the more I'm looking forward to it's arrival. June seems a long way off, if that date is correct!

 

Seems like a very common condition on the mirror finish broad arrow hands, but doesn't show up much in every day use. Mostly a camera issue at certain angles. Have been wondering if they've changed anything about the hands on the 60th aside from the lume.

 

It's a defect in early models of this reference. I've just ordered a set of exact minute and hour hands from Ofrei and will be swapping the hands. My watchmaker suggested not to though, as he said the current hands gives it an "antique" look.

 

I was only messing with you, it looks great and I am sure i isn't all that noticable in the flesh, photos magnify faults, even minor ones. It is a great reference that one.

 

Nice! But wouldn't you rather own a 60th Anniversary reissue rather than a '57 Broad Arrow homage watch with incorrect bracelet, lugs and case size? Only kidding of course! =)

 

I like the broad arrow hands and brushed bezel combo a lot. 10 years later in 2007 they released this which I wear a lot. 3313 movement so not quite the same thing I know:
