You guys kill any entertainment value by being so gosh-darn friendly and agreeable!!
I'm waiting for a show over here... 馃槈
Be careful, the ST is unprotected on the side! Hope the crown of the 60th doesn't leave a scratch on your ST when you flip the latter next month. 馃槈
Count me in as an arrival, unexpectedly. I was one of the many Californians deep into REM sleep when these were sold out, so I put myself on the wait list. I got a call today and boom! I'm traveling on biz, so won't see it until I get home, but by this point we've all seen them so I'll just count my blessings and enjoy the piece. Have faith my brothers and sisters on the wait list.
I have no information on that side of things... but to wildly speculate based on things that have been said publicly, and then throw in a little supposition:
In the interview that Raynald gave to the US newspaper, he expressed dissatisfaction with the summer shutdown, and the effects that this has on production... so I'd guess that impacted not just the ST, but delivery of all sorts of less closely watched models.
There's been a lot made of "QC" issues, but it's really a tiny quantity from the look of things, and as disapointing as it must be, they are resolving things very quickly.
Knowing now how fast this project was turned around, from the conversation with Robert-Jan, I do wonder if Omega overpromised on the delivery - with the 60th models already in production plan, along with everything else from Basel 2017, squeezing in 2012 additional pieces, of a different design, to the years manufacturing output, was maybe more complicated that they had expected.
Dude, I got a rejection for the 317th job I've applied for, in a year out of work about 45 minutes ago.
If I do decide to lose my shit, I'll make sure to upload a video. 馃槈
For those of you who waited, have you been tempted by another watch in the meantime? This is taking huge amounts of will power on my part. (Don't buy anything, don't buy anything....)
