YES! Was a slight gamble ordering the 1171 but now I see this I'm assured I did good. Can't wait to receive my ST to join the bracelet.
hi @mpcdude the one i use atm is a used one from the 80's and i love how it wears also have a brand new still sealed one. it's comparable to a jubilee bracelet, so very comfy and nice to wear.
Anyone in Singapore heading to the Speedmaster event later in the evening? Heard that at least 1 person will get to collect his ST during the event! What a lucky chap! I am not invited though as I am collecting my watch overseas.
I am attending. I know a guy who will be picking his up later though. One of the first if not the first in SG.
To add my 2 pence, it's IMO rather overpriced for what it is, but when it suits the ST as well as it does I can swallow that.
I will not be attending. I asked of I could pick up mine and they told me mine will be another day. [emoji20]
Yeah, no choice though. It's the only accessible bracelet that suits the ST for now. Don't know if I should order one now or wait for the event that Omega will make one specifically for the ST?
Has anyone who has taken delivery of their ST tried it on the current speedmaster bracelet? I know it has polished areas but they are minimal. I would be keen to see a picture of this set up before I pull the trigger on the folded link 1171
Hmm, had an email reply from Arthur earlier in the week and he informed me my AD would be receiving my ST together with my details this week. Just called them and they were completely baffled about it and were pretty dismissive about the possibility of it arriving there(they couldn't get their heads around the process of it being ordered directly through Omega and me choosing their branch for delivery/collection). Guess it won't be this week then, the call didn't inspire confidence but hopefully will be all fine when it does arrive.
Went to the Speedy Tuesday event here in Singapore and my, the ST looks unbelievably incredible in person. The dial is off-black and looks soo good.
Haha thanks. I think this may be the best looking Speedy I've seen in person. Follow my Instagram @watchrology for more of such high quality pics! (Shameless plug)
That is a lovely photo, one of the nicest so far I think. If that's a good representation of how it looks in real life then we're in for a treat!
