    No kidding, I thought these were already OOS for ordering through Omega. Oh well, at least you can still be reasonably sure that grey dealers will have them. $3400 isn't bad if you really want one. Unfortunate that the $3000-$3100 vendors are OOS now.

    Anyone feel like buying in bulk? WatchMaxx can get you about $7 trillion worth :)

    Batman's GothCard has you covered

    I can't decide if I want this one or not. I'm still leaning toward the classic. Congrats to all that pulled the trigger.

    The classic is great, but the red and white of the TinTin just take it to the next level IMO. On a sunny day, when the clarity of the plexi becomes so apparent, you won't regret the choice.

    As far as I'm concerned, this watch is a great bargain.

    It's clearly Ed Grimley, which is pretty shocking I must say.

    Got mine today from an Official Omega Dealer in Germany. S/N is 77.777.1xx He ordered it last week from Omega, Switzerland.
    Also asked for the "Snoopy-Strap". It's available in about 3 weeks and costs 450€ and you need a clasp, that is another 250€. Phew. Didn't order it, although I wanted to.

    Thanks for the movement numbers folks. Not a lot has changed, the rough stat estimate is still
    1007.87 (love to know whose got the .87 watch :eek: ). Big cluster of number between 77.778.1xx - 77.798.0xx. Will look interesting when plotted later.
