·The Omega Dealer I work with told me the 020STZ011626 is the black Velcro cork covered strap. They can’t find a number for the bracelet. The number in the pictures is ST011629, which they can’t find as a valid part number. They have contacted Switzerland for more information.
Hopefully it stays that way

·Hopefully you can order just the bracelet and it fits on the standard Moonwatch. And have the finish brushed too.

Sorry, but your information is not correct. The part number I gave is for the entire steel bracelet.
020STZ011626 | BRAC 310 ST 42 POLISH SATIN
MATERIAL : STEEL
FINISH : POLISH-SATINED
I didn't look closely at the photos, but you appear to have seen a part number on part of the bracelet:
130STZ011629 | BRACELET STRAND COMPLETE 6H STEEL
That is not the part number for the entire bracelet...the information I have given is correct, and the bracelet is 020STZ011626.

·What's a "blackened inner caseback"?
The boutique rep I left my deposit with said to expect delivery sometime during the summer. Id imagine they'd want some in people's hands by July 19. But I am extremely skeptical I'll see mine before the end of the year.
In an email sent yesterday, my local boutique has committed to delivery in July. No other specifics.

·My money on the Apollo.
I personally found the modern speedy a little too "cold" for my taste.
In some ways the modern Speedy may be a little too cold but it's simplicity and functionality is great for a Chrono.
But this also contributes to it being so versatile with regard to strap options.

·You know when you have a real Moonwatch when even the astronaut is mooning you.
Ok. Then will this speedy pro nickname be the ABSoTM (astronaut’s butt side of the moon)???

·I spoke to an Omega rep (an AD?) from Atlanta at the PGA Championship in Bethpage NY today. (Omega had a heavily staffed massive booth/store) I told him I had put down a deposit on the Apollo 11 50th a few weeks ago. He told me not to expect delivery until November, maybe even 2020. Unless you jumped on it early "definitely not July".
I really like the watch but need to see it in person. Not sure how I feel about tying up $10k for six months or more.
