Man remember those Apollo 11 40th anniversary watches where Omega made way, way too many (7,969) and they were getting dumped at Costco, ebay, grey market dealers were like “yea we’re good, we’re already got more of those damned things that we can sell”.
People are actually starting to charge a premium for those now but when they were new you couldn’t get rid of them fast enough.
The sleeper I’ve been calling for ages now is the Apollo 17 2012 LE, 311.30.42.30.99.002. The silver dial watch everyone hates but yet is so unique among Speedys and only 1972 of them produced. You couldn’t get rid of these either, nobody wanted them. They’re going to be a future Tintin / Gemini 4.
