OMEGA Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday Limited Edition (Arrivals)

Jsub · Feb 28, 2017

Wow a whole 45 pages to read on the subject of my new soon to be grail watch. A question for those way more informed than me. If i was to speak with my OB, would they be able to source me a steel bracelet the same as the 311.30.42.30.01.005? What would the bracelet reference be on that? Is anybody else thinking of getting a steel bracelet with the ST?

It will have to be brushed like the case.

I can see someone having to brush 2012 bracelets

Good point, probably best to stick with a strap of my choosing as others on here already seem to be doing.

Speedy Tuesday update.

I recently asked Speedy Tuesday International Sales Rep about any information regarding the release of the watch. I.E. would it be done according to reservation number done in ascending order? The sales rep replied "The deliveries will be made completely randomly as it is all relying on the machine which engraves the numbers on the case back. And this machine has its own logic!" I'm not sure if anyone else knew this and it does not give any info on when we will get our watches but at least it gives us a warm and fuzzy.

Also, on a side not I mentioned that I may be out the country for the release of the watch and the rep ensured me that they will be very flexible in regards to helping facilitate my pickup preference wherever that may be.

I'm in the same boat. One never knows though. I don't recall putting my name in though😒

I use though too often in my frantic posts...though...,

I would be interested to know if anyone on the waiting list actually got bumped up to purchase at ST.

I asked my local OB what my chances are on the wait list. I was told the following:

"We have received communication from corporate USA that this program is a Switzerland HQ initiative, neither the Boutique or the corporate office has any control over it. Right now, I have to say the chance of getting this piece is very small."

I want to reply....
"So you're telling me there's a chance!"

Another update: Just received news from the Speedy Tuesday mailbox informing that the watches will be delivered in July-August period.

Was this a personal inquiry response? or mass email as I did not receive any updates yet...

Personal inquiry.

Strange, I've been told delivery starts in June. We will see...😎

Personal inquiry.

I asked about switching my delivery to UK and answer was positive; also got the same July-August delivery timeframe

I can't wait for my speedy tuesday. I keep dropping in at the local boutique for any updates when I'm in the area....but it seems I get better info on the forums!

chows99 · Mar 3, 2017

I received a mail asking me for my preferred OB location. A step closer to D-day!

Sculler22 · Mar 4, 2017

You guys are extremely lucky, congrats to all!

I have found this to be true. Sadly, Omega HQ has largely left the OB out of this one.

Last time I was at my local OB I hinted that I might change the pickup to the Rome OB if it would be out while I was in Italy for vacation, but they didn't like that!

Oh, well, late to the party as usual. On the waiting list, like thousands of other guys. In the meantime, I'll need to be content with my Japanese-market Speedy reduced Panda (which I am!)

I hope I'm first: "DIBS"!

I don't think anyone who is one the waiting list is going to get one, unless someone has then please speak up.

The Speedy Tuesday is old news. The 60th Anniversary Speedy's are only a few weeks away, so people who didn't get the Speedy Tuesday make sure you got your name down with your local Omega Boutques for the 60th Anniversary LE.

Unless your really like the Speedy Tuesday then wait until the end of the year and I'm sure they will be available to buy on eBay (with a hefty price tag by deluded Speedy Tuesday owners)

Old news? I don't think so... everyone time someone gets an email from Omega it becomes news. The watch won't fail until it is actually released to the market and like any watch eventually hype dies down... unless it becomes like the Snoopy (which is possible).

I know there is hype about the 60th anniversary but I have a gut feeling it's not an LE we were anticipating.

People have either hinted it was a precious metal speedy or one that does not follow the moonwatch lineage which the Speedy Tuesday does have.

Either way it's a going to be a fun month.

I think the waiting list will come alive when the moment comes to pay for the watch; Omega had said delivery by July August 2017 timeframe but still unknown if you have to pay for it at collection or if you have to pay weeks earlier.

Depending on Basel 2017 new watch announments some people may forgoe their reservation of ST in favor of something else. I think Omega should had requested a non refundable deposit for the ST's before Basel; guess they know they would anyway get all sold through the waiting list and decided not to.
