·Rumoured or you bought it?
Rumoured. Asking £10k who knows how close they got to that?
I'm from Yorkshire there's not a hope in hell that I'd pay £10k for a £4k watch. When I get the call to collect mine I'm walking in with my Amex in one hand and less than £4k in cash in the other so hoping to get it for less than RRP.

·I was told by my OB that there is an allotment for the states, obviously, but they have not sent any out yet. So no, nothing in the US as of early last week. Also, told if a customer declines the watch it would be sent back to HQ where the official waiting list is and the next person in line is offered the watch.😗

·I think I saw something on Omega Instagram about the first one in the States already delivered.

·hi all
time for latest rumors ....
1. omega will sent a letter to the parents of the flippers regarding this bad behaviour.
2. the ship from china with fresh panda fur is delayed so production of dials is on hold.
3. all who ask if their watch is already produced will be ranked end of the list cuz arthur is mounting the casebacks himself.
4. its summer go out and have fun
cheers

·^Welcome and congratulations. I had an arrival today, but 1171 bracelet as opposed to the ST, enough to get me excited though 😀
I'm ready.

I very much doubt they got £10k. Even a cursory search would find them for sale at £7.5k. Unless they found someone in leave of their senses I suspect they accepted an offer around £8-8.5k.
The dealer has zero incentive to discount it for you - they know how much it's already selling for and it will cost them nothing to simply return it to Omega. What are you going to do - buy one somewhere else?

·B bouskeWhere can you source a 1171 bracelet? Ebay only or can you actually order it directly from Omega? Thanks.
Any Omega Store.

··Oooo subtitles!The bad news is they are horribly expensive. Think ~£350 for what is in essence a rattly 1970s folded link design (in part). That said, they do suit a Speedy well though.

Great. Thanks! Thinking about getting one for my ST. 2 more questions:
- In general should Omega Boutiques carry these in stock, or do they need to order from Switzerland?
- Does the bracelet come with the necessary endlinks for using it with the ST, or do I need to buy that separately?

··Oooo subtitles!Well it is a Speedy bracelet originally, it was fitted from about 1970 to the late 80s so it should fit the 145.0022 case just fine i.e. modern Speedy Pro 20mm lugs. I have heard tales of having to persuade the end pieces to fit but in theory this shouldn't be an issue.

You can see the reference number in the sticker at the top of my photo, that ref includes the required 633 end links (see them in the bottom of the pack). Might depend where you go but mine was a 3 week wait.

No I'm going to say put it on the Amex and you incur 4% charges or I'll pay you cash and you incur no charges and we'll split the difference. Worked in the past on a Nautilus with a 5 year waiting list so it's worth a try

Thanks, that's very helpful. I live in Brazil and my prior experience tells me that the OB here doesn't really carry anything out of the ordinary, so I would likely need to have them order it or buy at another OB when I travel.
