I only would have fought for adding a bracelet when Omega could redo a 1171 or 1450. The good thing is, that the case is a 'regular' Moonwatch case, so the current (or older) bracelet will fit if you really want to have one.

I thought omega still produces 1171 bracelets. At least as replacement: part code 020ST1171633.

RJ can take up this very important issue with the Management on our behalf.

At this price Omega can easily add a complimentary steel bracelet with the watch while sending it for delivery as a gift to the buyers. In any case the cost is not much; only the retail is. They should oblige this small community of fanatic buyers.
Are you joking?

Somebody asked for a profile of Ultraman's head on the 9:00 subdial that illuminates with a UV flashlight... But asking to include a bone-stock bracelet that's already in production is so outlandish that it must be a joke?

Sorry @rominvicta - the kid's got a point!

Me too, but it isn't available for the Moonwatch... 🙁

I wonder if some enterprising third-party bracelet maker could design and manufacture a set of 20mm endlinks to bridge the Speedmaster Professional and the 60th Anniversary flat link bracelet. The 0.5mm step down on each side of the first link wouldn’t be unreasonable, and I'm sure they would make a killing from new and vintage Speedmaster owners alike. Omega would also sell more product, so a win-win for everyone.

We didn't on purpose. The price doesn't really have much to do with a bracelet (or not). It is like saying this 30K Patek Calatrava is 30K, it should, therefore, come with a bracelet. To be dead honest, I only would have fought for adding a bracelet when Omega could redo a 1171 or 1450. The good thing is, that the case is a 'regular' Moonwatch case, so the current (or older) bracelet will fit if you really want to have one.

Yeah, I just so happen to have a spare 1171/633 and a spare 1998/849 here for the ST2 (and my ST1), but of course I missed out on completing my reservation for #1846 due to recurring website crashes that would not let me finish the order.

I responded to the email address ( the one they specified for any questions about the reservation) included in the reservation confirmation. There is no OB in the Boston area anymore - it closed last year. The closest one is in White Plains, NY, which is over 3 hours away, while there is an AD only 30 minutes away. We'll see what they say - the worst they can say is no.

Have you received a response yet from the email address they provided? I live in Boston too and have the same predicament.

I hope that pick-up can be at an Omega AD, the nearest OB to me is over 6 hours away...

If you call the Omega boutique they will ship it to you once it's paid. I did it over the phone and had the option of having it shipped.

Hopefully this piece will come out before the new ck2998. I paid off that piece a while ago and feel like I've been waiting for ages already.

I finally received a response this morning regarding a separate inquiry I had. They actually respond! Let us know once you hear back from them. I'm interested to see what they say.

Not sure they still actively produce it or deliver from stock, but it should fit.

Does anyone in here have the number 156, 615, or 1506 that is willing to swap with mine?
This year is a very special year for me as I turn 30 and my first child is born. I am looking something special to commemorate this year and was about to pull the trigger on sapphire speedy until I saw the SpeedyTuesday Ultraman. I am lucky enough to get one but could not get the number that I wanted. So if anyone in here has any of the numbers and willing to swap with mine, you are doing a big favor for me.

Thanks!
