OMEGA Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday Limited Edition (Arrivals)

In this context, can you tell me what this means: „I was told if one came available they would put me forward for it and..... Voila“?

Either there’s a waiting list (with FCFS principle) or not. When the decision is with local OBs, it’s all nonsense!

Anyway, I’ve got my ST and don’t want to argue with you nor make you bad feelings. I just feel sorry for all guys on the waiting list hoping for their luck when there’s obviously no fair play.

If the OB or the Boutique decides, the richest men gets the ST, not the real enthusiast!

These items are high end pieces and therefore appeal to people with money, for the enthusiast and watch collector on less extravagant budget there are many fantastic pieces available to suit all pockets,

This Sir is snotty and smugly. No sympathy from my side.

Omega has moved refused watches long distances from refused customer locations to new locations where a list registrant can pick it up

Yes it does, Omega stated that there would be one waiting list and people would be notified of available watches in the order they signed up on the list on the website.

Ask any AD about their so called lists and they will laugh, also, if you read Omega's terms and conditions on their Speedy Tuesday page they reserve the right to modify their terms and conditions at any point, right or wrong it's the way it is, just as it's the way it is that they decided to sell this piece online when surely the reason people love these pieces is because of the mechanical side NOT electronic, most horological collectors love mechanics so don't spend a lot ofintrest in computers, so this kind of goes against principles, unless you belong to a forum where you can be notified or bumped but maybe that's unfair too????

So do all mechanical watch lovers communicate via pigeon or something? Just because I love my mechanical watch doesn't mean that I can't love the fact that Omega is experimenting with selling watches online (which only makes it easier for people who really love speedmasters to get their hands on a great LE, like the Speedy Tuesday, rather than allocations being filled up by rich people with a great connection to a boutique). Boutique's should not be turning their backs on the official - numbered - waiting list, especially for a watch that is meant to give back to the community of speedmaster enthusiasts. Unfortunately, I don't think there's much Omega can do to prevent this, which is a shame.

Stunning watch unfortunately I missed out on mine :-(

Don’t think anybody at mothership will check the receipts- if the OB/AD has a no show they can just give it to a good customer or notify central. Would be surprised if that didn’t happen.
