What is all of this nonsense... honestly... at any given time there is a box/papers TinTin available for fraction of what @Sunsetamps purports is the going rate.

Last week Crown & Caliber had one in LNIB & complete condition for $6825 USD (which did sell).

Here is a COMPLETE one for 7450 Or best offer on ebay (plus seller has to eat at minimum of 500 in fees). Bracelet is unworn and it appears to be mint.

PS - is this thread at 100 pages yet?

I said I haven’t seen but keep in mind I’m not looking because I’m not selling. I have my TinTin. I don’t need the money. I don’t sell watches. I leave that to others. My response was to a reply directed at me. If you see a deal that you view as a great deal pick it up and flip it with all the love you have for flipping-I will not get in your way.

Up until a few months ago we were buying the Tintin BNIB from Japan and here in Australia for ca. AUD5,200 (USD3,800)

100 pages yet...😵‍💫

Aside of the very collectible nature of the Tintin there is much to like about the dial. The background story is also interesting as a bit of an anomaly in the world of Omega Speedmasters.

No TinTin on this poster

It’s as if Omega wants this variant to be forgotten...

In 2017 when this poster was produced the Tintin wasn't nearly as big in the lore of the Speedmaster as it is now. So, I wouldn't say this is Omega's way of wanting to forget this reference. There are quite a few other references not shown on this poster also.

Hi @Pun,
You wouldn't have any link to the original hi-res version of this?

Cheers

I just reposted this image from OF threads only. It was posted some time back on one of the Speedmaster’s discussion thread. I don’t remember when it was originally posted. I saved the image as it had TinTin as well. If you dig here you may get what you want. Regards

European Watch Co in Boston - the home of ridiculously overpriced used watches.

I don't necessarily disagree, but they do sell a lot of watches so it'll be interesting to see if and when it goes what list will be.

Its not official. Omega can't use the name Tintin in the poster.
