The more cynical types might suggest that Omega has used some "marketing" cleverness in the online reservation tool, indicating "SOLD OUT" prematurely, creating additional demand, and then strategically releasing small batches until really sold out.

 

I have a FOIS, I think the nato strap on this will make it look special and not too similar as the speedy that I have ordered. Am I mad buying two similar watches? Is it really limited to 2012 only?

 

I got the same screen, the only exception is the number

 

I was just sitting in OB when the email came through. Just trying on the black face steel bracelet moonphase which I did buy at a good price.
Any way I did also reserve the new speedy Tuesday it looks a real beaut on the NATO.
Just when I thought I was done buying watches.

 

Just checked again. It says all have now been reserved. That was quick

 

Do you think any more LE models will be due out this year?

 

Guess I'll have t wait & pick mine up in the secondary market after the price drops below MSRP.

 

My sentiments exactly. Hopefully this thing will not take off like the Silver Snoopy.

 

Sigh..... Just saw the thread, just checked. Sold out. Will keep trying.

Famous last words.

I think this model scratches too many itches for too many of the right people.

 

Agreed

 

Been trying for the last 3 hours. Giving up and going for a pint or three to drown my sorrows.

 

I was surprised that there was no requirement for some form of deposit to minimise speculative reservations. Having been one of those who put down a large deposit for the Tesla Model 3, thus giving Elon Musk some extra cash immediately, I thought Omega would have been charging maybe £500 downpayment on registration.

It is nice that those of us in UK/Europe had this announcement at a decent time, I guess that's all to do with where Speedy Tuesday has its roots.

Watch looks magnificent in my view . A job well done.

 

sold out? thats ok, i have no money for that anyways. Nice watch though RJ!

 

I'm bummed out. I just woke up, sick with a sore throat (hence the late wakeup), and it won't let me reserve anymore.

 

You guys are lucky with the low allocation number. But I am super stoked that I got one.

Took probably a billion refreshes of the page and to my surprise one bounced open to me. Ordered at 6:45 AM PST. <-- Nothing is impossible, keep on refreshing fellow members!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!

 

I actually find this so much better looking than the snoopy and I am sure that quite a few others do as well. My personal opinion is that it will actually do much better than the snoopy in the second hand market..
If today is an indication of the available interest at least!!
