    I'm torn about this. I like the idea behind the Tintin, and I find it much less over the top than many of Omega's limited edition pieces. At the same time, part of me thinks the bright color ruins the classic look of the Speedmaster dial.

    I've settled for liking the idea of one, but never buying it myself. For a more "showy" look, I have my Planet Ocean.

    The Tin Tin has been on my wishlist for a while. Thanks to a little alcohol-influenced, inhibition reduction, I pulled the trigger on a NIB one last Saturday night from an online seller. I don't regret the purchase and am looking forward to the arrival.

    My humble collection consists of 30ish timepieces. A mix of 50's - 70's vintage watches and newer pieces from an assortment of makers. This Speedmaster is most expensive single watch purchase I have made but I am confident it will be a keeper.

    Thanks to OF and all contributing members for being a valued source of information and entertainment. Several of my vintage purchases have been from OF members.

    Or it's proof you can control your drinking and make better decisions! Friends don't let friends wear Invicta.

    :D

    I have to say, this watch has never really spoken to me...but it looks a lot better on the wrist than I expected! Congrats on the purchase :)

    My Tin Tin arrived at the Post Office Friday but I was only able to pick it up today. Very pleased with this watch.

    Great pics of a really unique watch!

    I wasn't aware that this one was produced, so I met my goal of learning something new everyday.

    Can not make up my mind if I want to add one. Probably would not wear enough. I should have pulled the trigger on the Italian Albino that was for sale on the OF but whimped out.
