·The way the watches are being distributed I don't think getting a particular number is feasible for ordinary people. Maybe if you are a super customer or well connected with Omega it might be possible.
For those who have received their watches, when did you make the full deposit? I suspect that they aren't being doled out completely by that factor, but curious of there is any pattern of deposit date and getting the call.
And any thoughts yet on ACCURACY of this upgraded movement? Is it running to better than METAS standards?

I have not received mine yet but my full deposit was made on May 17th, which was the day the watch was released in the media. I think if you have a deposit in prior to that date, you may have a better chance of getting one earlier. This is pure conjecture on my part but if Omega is distributing off of a master list as I've been told, then it makes sense that starting the 17th, the list got significantly longer. Even if you're on a short list at your OB, you could have been driven down the master list quickly as people called in and put a deposit. Again, I have no idea if this is true but its a possibility.

·I asked over a month ago about getting a specific serial number, and they checked with omega corporate who said it was not feasible.

·All of us got the OF 33% discount. Didn't you? You just had to walk into the dealer, find a male member of staff, wink and grab him by the crotch. That is the OF secret sign.
Seriously, discounts were not on the table with this watch. I'm sure somebody got some discount somewhere, but the boutique's approach was, 'if you want it put down a full deposit and we'll call you when your name bubbles to the surface'.

I think I’ve been particularly lucky.
Mine is +1.5sec after 12 days of continuous running.
Similar to other manual wind chronos from omega it’s 17-22 daily winds.
It gained 2 sec in the first 5 days and then lost half. But it’s been 0 for days now.
The most accurate watch I own. However I also picked up the 1948 seamaster which is also metas certified and it runs at +4 or +5 every day.
Sojust lucky with this speedy.
Ps uk don’t take deposits so you just register your interest.

·Picked mine up yesterday from Mall of the Emirates OB in Dubai. Serial 6xx. I was the first to collect at this OB, they didn't know how many would make it to the UAE overall but they only had 3 steel and one gold allocated to them. Very happy with the purchase, the cork strap is a bit meh but the rest of the package is spot on. The gold makes it for me - subtle colouring and just the right amount. It's a very well thought out and executed LE to mark an important milestone for the Moonwatch. I think it will hold value for that reason, although I won't be selling. I've set myself a target to live another 50 years so I can wear it alongside the 100th Anniversary LE personal quantum computer Moonwatch....😀
And on the subject of discount....none offered (or expected) but they did give me 3% back as a Mall Gift Card. I don't know if that was Omega or a Mall promotion. Nice to have anyway.
