As these are sold mostly online and fully reserved, do they still need sample pieces for display?

Showing a watch that sold out so quick, smart marketing. People that pre ordered , missed out will go to have a look. " Bam " they are in the OB and that's what it's all about 馃槈

Now back on topic. Was by the OB over the weekend. They've mentioned to me that delivery was set for end of June/beginning of July. Might have a chance of getting the sample pieces next month to look at.

Can't wait! 馃榿

Interesting you was told June/July when I was told August at the earliest by the OB in Sloane St. I wonder if they are just guessing or the role out on these is going to take a few months?
Seeing as I'm new to all this does anyone know how long the snoopy for instance took to role out from first watch to last?
Financially for me August works better but at the end of the day funds will be found somewhere if it's earlier!!

It'll be simply down to guesswork. My guess would be 2-3 months from the 1st delivery to them completing all deliveries.

The snoopy isn't a great example to compare as it took forever to complete the entire production run due to difficulties with the case back engravings on that model.

The CK2998 seemed to come out in 2 distinct batches, as a couple of months after initial release a lot suddenly appeared at ADs/OBs and were fairly easy to find at RRP, at least in the U.K.

I think it all depends on your location. It will probably get released in batches and sent over country by country or whatever systematic approach they use. The guidance they gave is apparently what they've been told to anticipate and I'm sure we are all fully aware that it usuallly takes longer than expected anyways. I can wait for the watch but seeing a sample piece in the meantime would be awesome.

Hello guys!
I feel like this is the right post to introduce myself because this ST really is a stunning piece and I am proud to have one reserved. I am a long time lurker but... well here I am. The "problem" I have with this particular watch is that it is so beautiful that I am face to face with a very difficult decision.
Because my self imposed collecting rules are that I will only have one watch of each brand I chose to be a Speedmaster guy. (I had other models too but in the end the only Omega I have and will have will be a Speedy). I had three Speedmaster models so far but the one that really won my heart over is my beloved Albino, a Omega watch that I strongly believed will never leave my side. BUT... the day came when ST was announced and I jumped out of my chair and clicked my way into reserving one. So good! BUT, again... what will I do... I promised myself to have only one watch of each brand (for diversity) and now I am facing a real possibility of having two (not only Omega) but Speedys? 馃榾 Well.. here is my Albino: (and my keeper Rolex)

I have 5 speedmaster and rules are meant to be broken!
If you decide to part with the albino please send me a PM, would be willing to discuss breaking my rule of 5 speedmasters in my collection 馃榾

Congrats on owning the albino and the hulk. I thought a one brand when I had the 3572.50 until I found the OG Mitsukoshi and after that it changed my mind. You will find what suits your collection and if it means owning an extra speedy, it's just meant to be. There is never enough Speedy

Anyone in the U.K. who ordered and was asked to put a deposit? Wonder what the allocation is for UK.

I don't think anyone has paid a deposit, certainly not through the omega online ordering system.
I read somewhere that ~430 watches were for collection in the U.K. (May be skewed by foreign buyers electing to collect in U.K. Due to weak pound)

Nope, no deposit as of yet. Although I suppose it's possible they could still ask for one.

No. You will be contacted when your watch is ready for pick up at a OB. They reserve it for you for 30 days. You pick it up and pay. If you don't pick it up it will be sold otherwise (waiting list).

Where did you hear this from? If that's the case, I doubt the OB will send it back to Omega to cover the waiting list, and will just call up their own VIP who wasn't able to purchase.

Directly from Omega's HQ.
I asked this question before I made the reservation in January... 馃槈
