...and I am sure you would be first on the list 😜 (it will be two-tone pink, matching the emoji on the left)

They will again have to eliminate those who look alike (see vintage racing there / Japan Racing not there) - so all the copy pasted reeditions are out - hence the poster shouldn’t change much 😁



Why should they care? Not a market they’re in.



Adrian is entitled for the #0000 as he has made the prototype 🥰

I believe they are sapphire.

Omega can make as many variants of watches as they want, the consumer and collector can decide if they want to buy It.

I don t feel that having tens of different variants of the same watch dilutes the value of the brand, I feel it offers choice, imagine we all had to drive around in black cars?
The only downside of LEs is that one might not have the funds to buy one when they come to market and miss out or potentially have to pay over the odds for one.

That means it's only a matter of time before I can get my hands on the Silver Snoopy, even if it has to be reincarnated in blasphemous form 😝

Nobody will miss out on these watches. Two are nice if the caseback was changed. And the rest will litter the AD windows for ages and probably sold with large discounts after that. Put Olympic on a watch and i will show you dust in a AD window. Making these limited was waste of time and quite frankly helps to dilute the special side of owning a limited edition as there a soooooooo many especially Speedmasters. Just my opinion

Yep, my issue with these is if they only went 14 (/13, /12) years before recycling the Apollo XI 35th, Gemini IV and Apollo XV 35th - for an LE two years before the event they commemorate, what's to stop them from re-releasing the Ultraman I'm about to buy (for $2000 more than the MSRP of a regular Speedmaster) in six years, commemorating the 2032 Olympics? Why should I spend extra on a limited edition Speedmaster if they're just going to make more of them in a few years?
