Yeah...just got that email as well. Hoping to get one (to wear...not flip) if more folks drop out.

Not sure a magazine is going to scratch the itch but it was a nice gesture!

Yes! Even though it was quite expensive £360 for strap and clasp, I felt I could justify the expense because of the low pound and low UK price of the SPEEDY tuesday LE.

I also noticed something strange in the paper certificate (see picture} . It says power reserve 45 hours, but I thought the 1861 movement had 48 hours. Anyone that could comment? I just wound the watch up to the max and will see in two days how long the reserve had hold up.

I was also surprised by the faint omega engraved logo on the center of the hesalite crystal that can only be seen from a angle. Is this on all speedmaster crystals? 3f4f68b150f72f3e3a85be8b2d264bb1.jpg

Yes, all modern hesalite crystals have it; sapphire crystals don't.

Not just modern. They've been doing that since around the 1950s.

So to reply my own question about the "product description" stating 45 hour power reserve, I have now tried twice fully winding and letting it die, and I got 50-51 hours! My guess is that its a typo, as the Omega website also states "48 hours"

Nothing unusual about any manufacturer of an engineered product understating a measurable feature's value; good practice I'd suggest.
