And while you are at it change the company name to Rolex? Remember, it’s only a watch.

Heard they are sending you a nice orange box and a UV pen as a goodwill gesture after they read this thread. 😉

See, if I hadn’t of asked I wouldn’t have got - feel like I’ve won a small victory on behalf of all prospective ST2 owners. 😉

Anyway, enough of bracelets - they’re so last year. Let’s move on and whinge about something else! 😀

A combination of the below maybe?

1. Full 150% payment upon confirmation of order.
2. 50% extra collected will only be refunded 6 months later.
3. To get refund, photo proof of printed newspaper with watch showing both date of printed newspaper and LE number.

4. Registration of interest before launch to OB. OB will then issue pins to previous buyers with past business dealings with OB, enabling them to do online purchase.

5. By invitation only. Meaning OB or Omega HQ will only invite those in their records to purchase online during phase 1. After which phase 2 is open to others.

6. Last but not least, potential buyer to bring wife to OB with marriage cert and wife to swear under oath that husband has chronic issue collecting Speedmasters. Single individuals to bring Psychiatrists down to swear under oath instead of wives. Then get issued a pin to buy online.

See, so many options. Forgive my ranting. Time for medication.
Very nice option..... what about having consensual sex with some girl or guy (depends on preferences) who is in charge to climb up the list.

Think some on here are clearly suffering from a condition known as OLES - Omega Limited Edition Syndrome...and the waiting continues...

Nice poetry but far too many syllables for a Haiku.

This is very realistic 😗

I’m sure 30-35% should be the dealers’ margin.

Nope...

Have to query your grasp of economics there. Your sums below suggest that manufacturing a bracelet costs Omega nothing. In fact the profit margin is probably at a wild guess more like 80% of the list price so if they sold one to every ST2 owner at the cost you suggest would ‘only’ clear about $1.2m!

Pedantic, moi?

yes, I misspoke. Revenue, not profit. I suppose the profit margin on bracelets is closer to 50%. Maybe a little higher, but I think 50% is a nice conservative estimate.

With due respect Sir I beg to state that I till my last purchase of Railmaster LE from the AD I got 23% discount and I just figure at least 8-10% should be his margin, taking into account all sales schemes they offer on target sales achieved etc. I am not an expert or an insider, therefore, this is my estimate only. AD might be having lesser margin while passing the rest to me.

Just spoke to someone from omega my number being X216. He said that I should be able to collect within the next 10 days. I’m from London.

Do we have any confirmed waiting list calls yet? Any thoughts on protocol there?

Do we expect Omega to try your number - and if you don't pick up - you've missed your chance?
