I love these threads where we really get to know the new members. 📖
Bummer. You need to have a minimum of 500k collection to get free info here on OF.

Just jumped back on the speedmaster train the past month. Kinda went a little nuts. But wow. Really refreshing to go into an AD and see inventory.

New sapphire sandwich
145.022-78
3590.50
Apollo 11 anniversary

Couple questions. I bought the 50th naked. Is it possible to buy the box from omega or elsewhere. Also does anyone have any extra links for the 50th. Thanks and look forward to learning a lot on here.

Which is your favorite of the 4 and which one will be your daily wearer?

Do you mean a collection WORTH $500K or a collection that COST $500K? If it's the latter I might have a shot.

I am in the latter camp also, somehow I manage to lose money on almost every watch I buy. Happily I dont drink or gamble so it kind of compensates.

That wasn't a normal train, that was a bullet train!
Congrats, great selection.

The answer about getting a box from Omega seems to be no. It was suggested in another thread that if you email the right person at Omega, they could send you a box. I tried that looking for a particular box and received an email from Omega stating that they do not provide boxes. It was pretty unequivocally.

you're likely stuck with Ebay as a source or putting a want to buy thread here on OF.

But you can't wear the box. You could probably wear two on each arm though!

Based on your shoe collection, this is just the start.😁

Again, congrats👍

What I know for a fact coming from multiple OBs in multiple countries is that most asian buyers do not take their boxes with them back home for obvious reasons.
So they genuinely have plenty, the question is would you be able to buy them??
Probably not. I got offered a new box for my wrongly spelt citation on my Apo XVII but I had to give mine back (obviously I didn’t give mine up). Also you should know that the boxes and watches are coming to the OBs using different carriers for security reasons. Again the Box is an integral part of the watch, just a separate piece…
Now if you bought a new watch from your OB and you damaged your box, and you want a new one, they might be able to help

200K? I think I’d best go back to the kid’s table.
There is plenty of room and we are all having plenty of fun at this table 👍
