Fair enough. But this ain鈥檛 a snoopy. For a start there are 7k of them.
there are one or two watches at that price. The rest are way lower.

The example is a normal someone with 10 grand. Do they buy a Rolex sub/gmt grey, or an omega at the same price?

Hard sell. Why it probably won鈥檛 happen.

There were 7k Spectre's and they are well over RRP and this is the 50th moon landing..significantly more important

I鈥檝e been allocated one and have contacted Watchfinder and they offered me 拢400.00 above retail.
I鈥檝e no intention of selling this watch when I get it but I was interested to know what they鈥檇 offer.
I鈥檝e actually sold 3 watches to b able to afford this new 50 year le

Well played sir..use their money makes wearing your LE even sweeter

Back on topic...anymore photos of the unboxing, or more wrist shots? Any literally "in the wild"? My local OB informed me that they had no update to provide......(Tyson's Corner, Virginia)

Tysons always seems to be a bit low on the totem pole...

I talked to my OB in San Antonio and they said the same. No news about any deliveries yet. She seemed surprised that there were some out already.

Whaaaaa? Mine is bought and paid for, and I've been reassured mine will be the first in North TX. I've not received any word on an actual delivery date, however. Fingers crossed it's soon! Regardless, congrats to the OP. That's a beautiful watch. Color me green.

Yeah, I checked the San Antonio Boutique on Saturday and got the same story.....no updates to give.

I bought and paid for mine, too (incl sales tax) from St. Louis boutique......no information to give.

Sounds like Omega USA is silent with their boutiques and AD's at this point.....maybe they are going to ship all US allocation during a small window so most customers will get theirs at about the same time. Just guessing. I'll be patient for the next four months but I'd hope to get it by the end of October. Otherwise you start running into Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays where boutiques start thinking about their year end sale priorities.

E-mair or text? Care to share?

I鈥檝e been very close to watch finder for some time so will ask tomorrow, but hey, that鈥檚 good news for those of us (including me) who are buying this thing.
I鈥檝e bought a lot off Watchfinder and the quote was done by email

If that really is #1, I'm guessing that person has received his last LE from Omega!
There's nothing saying it would be no #1? I'm sure Omega/AD/OB should hand that watch to someone else than gray market?

It's just a stock photo off the internet somewhere.

Maybe it鈥檚 10k because it鈥檚 number 1?

It's not. I'm beginning to think that they haven't even got the watch yet. I reckon they are just trying to get a steal on the market. Literally.

Correct, they don't have the watch as it's not marked with a green dot that denotes in stock on C24.
