Very odd by the OP. They list all their Rolex's on an Omega Forum and their Omega on a Rolex Forum.
Absolutely ridiculous pricing in my opinion. $20,150.. C'mon yeah right.
As far as intentionally slowing down the production to create "artificial scarcity' (like PP and Hermes)... also not true... the Snoopy Caseback is just really time consuming and difficult to produce.... hence the relatively low Edition number...
... and those snoopy casebacks are impossible to produce pre-product-launch?
quite to the contrary ... the outlet (and reps) - most likely have a sales quota to meet ... and might have you "earmarked" for being a guy that could pony up 5 digits in a couple of hours ;-) ... I worked in sales and know that weirder things have happened ;-)
cheers, Al
... and those snoopy casebacks are impossible to produce pre-product-launch?
once again, omega is follower and not leader ;-)
(am i the only one who'd be embarrassed to be seen with either watch?)
So... possibly a great little pointer would be to Think, re-read, THINK, and THEN hit reply...
But... since I'm still on another timezone, and can't get to sleep... these posts seem to be tonight's entertainment...
Where do we even start...? Omega copying rolex because of a MickeyMouse dial?
Are you aware of the 'Silver Snoopy award'? ... Did Rolex somehow earn a Mickey mouse award by providing function that saved the lives of three astronauts, playing a pivotal role in Mission rescue success?
there is a reason for the Snoopy watch, and it isn't a Brieting for Bentley, or Rolex for Mickey arrangement....
Or were you hoping that you stumbled upon a Rolex-cartoon dial of which we were all unaware, and now you'd expose us all as fools?
What's next? are you going to ask why we call JFK's Omega the President's watch, and then tell us that Rolex invented the term 'Presidential'?
As far as "pre-production"... lets remember that Baselworld has traditionally been a fair for retailers.. if feedback on a model is poor, or orders luke-warm... some models may not see market at all, or will be put on a lower priority list...(have you seen a whiteside at any display cases lately?) There is no 'Pre-Production' launch.... (although this has changed for this year)...
As far as Nima Earning points rather than being blacklisted... sorry... Omega does not need his money to sell hot models... and he wont be offered a place on the pre-order, or priority list in the future... and do you really think 'ponying up' 5 digits is impressive ( never mind the fact that he ponyed up 4 digits) ?... those Tourbillons and platinum models for which we all say they are crazy to ask 6 digits... they DO sell !!
of course they'll take his money for mass produced watches... but in a future 'Snoopy situation', they really do want the watches to go to people who will love and appreciate them... not to profiteers..
