·How much you wanna bet we see a moonshine gold speedy with 321 in it??
Good call, but where does the Company go next to top this? A cal. 321 case carved out of a solid diamond block?
As mentioned by the CEO... no more LE - Limited Editions...
But I can't believe Omega still doesn't offer an extra "practical" bezel with their favorite chronograph
Still a good deal imho.
You seriously might be the only person that’s bought one and actually took a picture wearing it.
totally agree! a 321 version would be nice, though the 1861 makes it a bit easier to maintain...
alternatively,
I will get one of those 60th's... one day. I wouldn't mind all three!
I believe the trilogy watches will be appreciating steeply in the next couple of years. The Railmaster will likely continue to lag behind. I put my money where my typing is and just picked up the SM trilogy shown here but not yet in my hands. I've looked at these several times. These are (to me) by far the best-looking Seamasters ever made, along with the original version, of course. The bracelets on these are my favorite Omega bracelets, easily. Of course the Speedmaster is still just a bit better, but....it's a Speedmaster. Cmon.
While you might have a point about appreciation, I might add that of the 3, the RM is in many ways the nicest to wear. I flipped the Speedy and Seamaster and kept the RM. Partly this was because of overlap with other watches ( I have other Speedies and Seamasters) so YMMV but of the 3, ironically it is the least loved which spoke to me the most. I do occasionally regret moving the Speedy on though, particularly when I read posts as well reasoned as Eugene’s!
I won't argue that the Railmaster is also a great watch, and I have thought to grab one a few times, but it is a clear 3rd in the trilogy stakes, in my opinion. The Speedmaster wears very well, and I expect the 2913 progeny will wear even a little better.
As for future values, there is no doubt in my mind all three will appreciate, but the Speedmaster and Seamaster will pull away from the RM, and the Speedmaster will remain the best investment. I'll go so far as to predict their values (usd) in 2025 (full sets in near new cond): 2915=20k,
2913=18k, 2914=12k. Collectors who will refuse to pay more for Snoopy, Alaska, ST, etc will begin searching out more affordable options, and the Trilogy watches are WAY underappreciated given their beauty and quality...and eye to the past.
It's brave of you to talk numbers. We shall see of course, but my own feeling it that those are a little optimistic, particularly on the SM and RM. One thing to bear in mind don't forget is that there are rather more of the Trilogy watches than some other LEs, as many as 3x in some cases. That said, not being limited doesn't seem to have harmed the Snoopy 3 or 321 NEW so maybe that issue size not longer a factor in the brave new world of FOMO at all costs.
