Someone just flipped theirs to WF already/

https://www.watchfinder.co.uk/find/Omega/Speedmaster Apollo/310.20.42.50.01.001/40493

 

How much was it up for

 

Its awaiting price. It's in staging before they get the photos and price up online.

 

It looks like they say they can source one rather than having one in stock

 

It’s not your one is it? Didn’t they offer you 400 quid over retail?

But seriously, yes it looks like they don’t actually have the watch.

 

They did offer me that.
But I’m not selling
I just wanted to know what I could get.
Surprisingly another place offered me £500.00 less than retail so now I don’t know what to think

 

You could always think that watches are NOT the best way of making money, but an enjoyable way of spending surplus money that will give you some sort of return if you fall on hard times.

 

Hmm WF seem to have a BB/TT-TT incoming. Who in the UK has one and has claimed to have sold it already? Its a mystery I tells ya.

 

Why are you gonna go and stalk them to moan about it like you did me

 

I talked to the manager of the OB here in San Antonio and she told me that they are expecting some shipment in the next couple of weeks. She also mentioned that they will deliver the watches according to the order where people put the full deposits first and then the ones with partial ones. I’m so excited!!

 

I was told by London OB that no list was taken prior to its release - even though I was told I was on one prior... FFS

 

This is a really odd release. Of everyone that has theirs, I think only 2 people have taken wrist shots without the stickers on. The omega part of the Rolex forums has no recipients outside of @Bp1000. There’s a general lack of excitement on here. I appreciate that we are a small part of the watch population, but I’d have wagered we’d have had a few more with the initial dump of watches.

There’s even very little on Instagram which is where many post these new shiny things when they receive them.

I’m assuming that very few watches have been actually delivered and then nothing since? I was expecting a steady flow of new owners showing off their new purchases.....

 

Well yes but also German rocket design, Australian satellite dish assistance (which actually beamed ‘the moment’ globally, UK scientists and many other partners.

It’s not about a country but what we all achieved.....

Please don’t forget that.

 

Looks great even with the protective plastic stickers on it.

 

There you go. I picked it up at store closing time when most of the staff were either leaving or had already left for the day. Haven’t had a chance to take it back for resizing yet so stickers will stay in place until then. Hasn’t stopped me from playing with it though.

PS: Could be lack of excitement or could simply be that life gets in the way, far more important things to attend to etc. etc.

 

Not taking stickers off yet as I’m thinking of giving it to my son as a passing out present when he passes out in the police force

 

May I ask how you were given the extra ‘swag’? It is certainly nice additions.

I assume you have bought more than one piece from them and are a return customer.

Thanks for any info

 

08:45am Tuesday and Watchfinder still do not have the watch listed for sale, maybe its a page they have prepared ready to post should the watch become available?

 

Mine turned up a month earlier than expected - I guess there has only been a few delivered so far.
