Did they indicate what year?

Given how long it has taken the last couple of years for watches with <3,000 units to fully be delivered, the process could definitely take 4-6 months once the first ones begin to arrive.

 

A month or two? I’m just hoping to get mine this year! I waited 11 months for my DSOTM Apollo 8. Unless they have been working on them to avoid that debacle again.

 

2029 jk... this year (2019) is what I was told. TBH, I’m in no rush.

 

Do you remember anything about the subdial? Full gold or just gold accents...?

 

LOL. You guys are relentless. OK, I give in. The info I have is seconds sub dial with gold details. I imagine it will probably be something similar in execution to the Apollo 17 45th gold edition Apollo patch figurehead detail, but now with the Apollo LM.

 

Co-axial movement...does that mean this will be 44.25mm and really thick? I hope not, I don’t have the wrist size for that...

 

At least this thread stays amusing, i never knew there were so many Nervous Nellies. Stay focused and relax, planes are catching fire and crashing, the Middle East is again on high alert with rockets flying, and the usual mayhem continues to involve innocents. This watch is not important in the universe's time line. Speculative banter is fun but a lot of people are taking this way too seriously.

 

Indeed!
I've just returned from a visit to KL Auschwitz-Birkenau and I can tell you there's plenty to think of outside of the latest Speedy.

 

My point was that I withdrew my deposit without waiting to see the piece because unless the watch has the 321 and a piece of the moon on it , there is nothing Omega can release that will have me pay $15,820 CDN (taxes in, almost three times the price of the regular Speedie I bought) for a Speedmaster. So let me be the first to say a preemptive congratulations to those who are willing, who see the release, enjoy it, and buy it. I sincerely hope it brings you years of joy, but it isn't for me. I bought the regular Speedie, put over $10k CDN in my pocket and walked home. That doesn't mean I'm still not excited to see what's released .

 

Nah, this is useless input:-

Ideal for those who prefer a nervous shuffle through the cold sands of time rather than making giant leaps for mankind.

 

Thanks, but sorry, I did ask bmickdewey... The info you have, I have as well, but bmickdewey has seen it...

Again the goldn logo. There was a post on Facebook: we won't mess up with the look but with new tech.

looks like no enthusiastic response posts here.

 

Nothing that hasn't already been said but, my sales associate told me the following: 42mm, steel with some gold details (bezel, crown and pushers most likely), the movement will be the new in house magnetic resistant, manual in house. And most likely the new steel bracelet with the micro adjustment. No news on the color of the dial. Deposit to one is $5000 (completely refundable) and the retail price is $9600.

 

No gold crown, no gold pushers .... stainless steel. Bezel in Moonshine gold with Ceragold tachy insert, with some gold accents on the dial. Have not heard of any micro adjustment in the buckle, but more like the design of the all 18k gold version. Until pictures drop we know as much about this watch as we are going to know. Should be a week or less now. If something doesn't come out of this big 'insiders only' event at Cape Canaveral this week, the date I was given was May 15th for the big reveal. And I believe the window to be able to put down a deposit (in the USA at least) is now closed, all spoken for. And the OB I used in late March required FULL payment, plus tax, to lock one in. I just paid the AMEX bill last week, $10,446. It better be good.

Maybe we should keep an eye out on social media for pics of George Clooney's wrist, he would likely to be the first ambassador to sport one in public.

 

I am wondering how effective the "full deposit" requirement has been/will be to fend off the flippers!??!

 

$10,000 for a Speedmaster with gold accents. What am I missing? I don't get it.

 

Stay tuned until May 15th... and then you/we will be able to comment with all facts in your/our hands...
