    Hi all,
    I just wanted to ask please - can anyone tell me the retail price of the above watch? I know it was available direct from Omega on preorder only.... but I can't find any info on the retail price from Omega.
    I just want to gauge if it's worth paying what people are currently selling these at the moment.

    I'm looking for my first Omega.. mainly to keep and hopefully a good investment for my son when he's older. He's currently 11 years old.

    Another on my list is the 2007 1957 50th anniversary in the wooden box with tools... so I'm trying to decide between these two
    Thanks

    There are some Speedy Tuesday threads where various msrp values by country were discussed at length.

    Depends entirely on personal preference.

    A scientific study was commissioned and it was clinically proven the two are equal.

    Ultraman. It’s a more limited time piece and looks better IMHO. I also believe it has the potentially for a bigger upside, even if some of the elements of the watch are gimmicks.

    Really? By the way, the 50th anniversary I'm talking about is the one from 2007 with the box of tools?!

    i'm very new to Omega and just looking for my first one so I don't know what to look out for yet for a good investment watch

    According to the many experts on OF, the going advice is not to purchase a watch for investment but because you really like it and want to wear it. Take that for what it’s worth...
