I phoned two people in Omega who claimed that she was produced so little they can not give the exact number.

 

I asked if the book production year could match the number of existing shows. but they know nothing. it seems to be the assumption

 

They confirmed to me but it was rare and that production has been stopped since 2014 but has yet to distributors until 2015.

 

this remains a shows little produced in a very short time so it proves that it is rare

 

It's shown us traveled with a lot of mysteries ☺

 

@dubois you might want to check your dosage.

 

I'm here to understand and know with everyone the story of that Tintin is so mysterious with affirmations and not suppositions !!! it is with pleasure that I share my info !!

 

Thank you for your interest and understanding and sorry for my English translation is not top

 

Bought mine earlier last month at the NYC boutique... 777797XX

 

Very nice pair! I have something similar, but more along the lines of "something old, something new":

 

Lovely pairing. Have you added your Tintin Serial# here, CdnwatchDoc? We are slowly building a picture.

 

Yep, mine was the 777979xx

 

I purchased mine in November. My serial number is 777976xx.

 

cheers, mate. What year?

 

2015

 

Great looking watch! Still can't believe that the Herge's family got cold feet. Have you got the rocket to go with it yet?

 

To my further - extreme - surprise I'm getting increasingly taken with this Tintin version and I'm now hovering dangerously close to a purchase - at £3,150 - how do others here feel about that for value? I wonder if it would be feasible to fit a Tintin dial to my 3570.50?

I have bought myself a pin badge, same as I got for my grandson's Xmas stocking, so mania is now becoming firmly established!

 

Error returned on trying to view the attachment, davy26.

I take it that is an AD price?

I ended up getting two model Tintin rockets, one for my grandson and one for myself. I refuse to grow old and die...so far so good

 

Not an authorised Omega dealer, but a major retailer whom I trust from a recent IWC Portuguese purchase.
Not sure about attachments - they are bad links in the text, but I can 'see' the two pics intended embedded in my post, i.e. book cover and pin badge - please let me know if these are not visible on the forum.
I have seen the rockets and like them - quite expensive though? (BTW) grandsons come in handy to help justify these kinds of indulgence!
Regards.

I have been looking further at available Tintins as of now - average price is £2,197, so that one I mentioned previously seems a bit over-priced.
