Here are the panda and red bezel in hand.

Thought I preferred the panda, but in that photo the red really works.

Are they available for purchase already? Anyone now if the narita airport boutique has any of them?

The dial on the red bezel model looks more silvery. Is that the case?

Yes it's definitely more silver with texture.

I don't understand the black hands on a black subdial concept. How is that good design.

They're stainless steel.

That's better!

Brushed steel hands would have been much better though. They used them on the new ck2998.
That being said, I must admit these LE are quite nice.

Can you confirm that you actually purchased these to pieces?

I went to the Omega dealer made a reservation but they were unable to confirm at all when the watches would be available.

One of the pandas just popped up on an Australian Facebook sales forum for AU$14,000. Given the price for a reserved Speedy Tuesday 2 is AU$8720 I would think this is optimistic at the extreme.

Yeah, first day of availability. The boutique at Umeda sold out that first day. I'm guessing they'll get new stock again.

I love the panda but just can't seem to get in touch with any of the Japanese ADs. I've tried emailing a few but I either don't get a response or they don't understand the Japanese my translator is writing out for me. I guess I'll have to just keep my fingers crossed until October and hope I find one while there

I think you have to walk in to the boutique to buy. They wouldn't even hold the watches over the phone if you said you'd be there in 30 min.

That's unfortunate, I was hoping to leave a paid deposit until I arrived.
