We will know Tuesday

 

From what I heard the one with 321 mvt comes in a platinum and only 50 pcs for 50th anniversary. The 321 mvt is made and specialised by omega high complication tech to build one. So if thats the case probably the one with 321 mvt is going to be super limited. I mean platinum it self will probably cost big coin.

 

Platinum 1948 seamaster is 31k vs 5k in steel (GBP)

And you guessed it, limited to 70 pieces (70th anniversary).

Don’t recall a platinum speedy. So that would be interesting.

 

This is getting really interesting. My holy grail is this platinum version:

 

I think that was USD 135k retail

 

Where did you hear that from please?

 

It weighs 248 grams. That's about 100 grams more than the steel version...

 

Just a couple of #SpeedyTuesday days to go before the " big " event...

(Not enough pics! )

 

Ref of SS will be 310.20.42.50.01.001

VK will be higher (heard 9600 CHF)

Might be confirmed within next two days as Omega conferences starts tomorrow (time to move)

 

The reference number 310.20.42.50.01.001 would mean:

310 = Speedmaster (regular Moonwatch Professional has 311, the golden 50th Anniversary is 310 as well)
20 = Watch Head in stainless steel and gold
42 = 42mm in diameter
50 = Mec. Chrono with Co-Axial, 0 complications
01 = Black Dial
001 = Sequence number of the model

They have also opened the floodgate for a manual ceramic with DSOTM moon Apollo 8 ….. Maybe 321 ZrO2...….

 

I can now confirm that it will be steel/gold version. (Moonshine). The back will feature the footprint of Buzz on the moon. The braclet will be the same style than the gold 50th Anniversary gold watch.

Price reconfirmed as 9,600 CHF.

 

I’m gonna need pictures.

 

Omega hasnt provided pictures so far. However they claim that it should ship before summer. The brezel is made from Moonshine gold, while the bidy of the watch is steel. The dial is „special“ black one. That is all info what Omega gave today.

 

Looking forward to seeing it, but my only reservation is that at that price point there are a lot of other Speedmaster recent LE options like ST#1 or Soyuz with lower issue numbers but similar second hand prices that temp me, or a vintage piece.

Sure there are worse dilemas!

 

I'm still hoping they'll release an all steel version in the end. Otherwise I'll have to pass on the 50th and 321 watches. Good for my wallet!

 

How are you confirming this?
