How many on the "still waiting" list actually believe they will get the watch?
I'm guaranteed mine at my OB with my 100% deposit. 馃榾

That's great news. Do you have an eta for that delivery?
My dealer is expecting another delivery next month and at this stage it's still unclear if all of this allocation will sell out.

I have no idea how many members of OF have received the 50th, or are on the list to get one, but it doesn't seem all that large looking at the posts over the past few months and to those that have reported in on this thread. Maybe 100 or so in total? That's a pretty small percentage of the total, 1.5% or so. Even if it is 300 people it is less than 5% of the total. Just goes to show how small the OF coverage is of the Omega customer base, most people buying an Omega don't know about OF, or just don't care.

Geez guys, don鈥檛 you think a shared google-docs spreadsheet will be a lot easier than copy-pasting another 100 pages of this? Just saying.

Haven't seen this discussed but has anyone noticed the significant power reserve increase of the new 3861 movement? The standard 1861 movement will run for 50-51 hours (stated reserve 48 hours), and the 3861 movement was supposed to be slightly upgraded to 50 hours. But my example runs a full 65 hours with very close timekeeping until the bitter end. That's a real world increase of about 27% (65/51), pretty impressive; better accuracy AND much longer running time.
Mine has 64 hrs reserve, strange Omega doesn't state a 60+ figure instead of the 50 in their specs.馃榾

I know it鈥檚 a very small sample size and probably not that accurate in the real world but so far the survey suggests that 60% are out there with 40% still with Omega or in transit.

I picked up mine yesterday at Omega boutique in King of PRUSSIA. Went in thinking I was going to hate the gold but it鈥檚 beautifully done. Very understated 45xx number.

I said goodbye to my 2nd one today and it should arrive at Chronext tomorrow. I can't see me taking the option of another one next month.

At this point I really think that you just like to be the center of attention good or bad. Why would you give the idea that you could get a third one. Do you have the need to feel more important showing that you have a really good relationship with your AD. I don鈥檛 get it. Unless you are trying to be funny but either way it shows your need for attention.

Hard assessment, but have to agree, what is accomplished by someone crowing that they could get a THIRD example? Just bragging, and rubbing it in to those that are still patiently awaiting.

I was simply posting about letting the watch go which was not that easy a decision and that I had closed the door on that particular watch, but haters need to hate someone.

Well that's certainly a relief, perhaps you could do everyone the favour of now "closing the door" on your participation in this thread.馃憤
