    Someone posted a link a few posts up. I don't mean to spam. I'm sure you'll find it.

    Excellent photos over there, thanks for taking the time. Really looking forward to mine, but #11** so late September/October I guess.

    I'm not sure if there's any logic to it. The one pictured was somewhere in the 300's.

    Saw a post on the Facebook speedytuesday page that someone is selling his Ultraman numbered 1285 and apparently the watch was collected in the Netherlands...didn’t expect to see such a high number! I thought the watches will be released sequentially...

    RJB commented on a post today (may have even been that one) that they were produced in numerical order but perhaps not shipped that way.

    It really is a great looking watch. I had a few pangs of regret about canceling my ST2 reservation upon seeing these photos. I like to think there's such a thing as karma - I don't want to go into any detail right now and jinx it, but canceling my reservation may have resulted in another opportunity. I'll share more when I hear something definitive.

    I'm still doubting my reservation. It would be my first speedmaster, but I'm also wondering what Omega has in stock for 2019 with regards to the moonwatch.

    Unless you abuse the watch, I suspect you’ll be able to buy it, wear it and either break even if you decide to sell and buy something else down the road, or close to it. Meaning you’ll get a test drive for free....

    Original MSRP on ST1 was $6,500 - cheapest price on WatchRecon for one right now is $7,700 - all the rest are $8k+. Meaning there may not be beaucoup upside, but downside is pretty minimal.... one was sold here for $6,700 this summer, but even that’s breakeven +$200, so again, no real downside.

    Haha, I noticed that but that logo is always completely random so if it's the correct angle it's pure luck.
