    I'm a newbie in this forum and this is my first post please bare with me [​IMG] [​IMG] .

    I'm currently in UAE and I hope to find someone in this forum who also work here.

    Purchased my speedy in RIVOLI (Authorized Dealer here in UAE) with a good discount. They have this promotion called "Take Back" which is the more you get the more your discount. After two weeks of countless reading/watching of reviews between Speedy and PO. I decided to go with speedy. Honestly I want the liquid metal PO but I can't find a new one here. (That's the real reason.) Anyhow I love the speedy. The special box, the heritage, and the quality of this moonwatch.

    I am looking for a group here in UAE for watch collectors / enthusiast. If you know one kindly reply. Thanks.

    Welcome aboard (which is a bit rich from a newbie) but you're miles ahead as I'm yet to get a Speedy. Love the Velcro and NATO straps, in fact the whole presentation of that set is just wonderful. Definitely makes the new editions somewhat special.
    UAE, there for aviation purposes by any chance?

    Great start. You will get addicted quickly. Save your pennies and get the PO next. Search the sales forums and I'm sure you will find one that tickles your fancy. Welcome to Omega Forum.

    Thanks. Plannig to get PO after 4 months. Don't get me wrong but, I don't like pre owned things. I prefer to buy in AD / Boutique.
