My budget? More or less the same price as the new one.

Thank you! I'll take a look at it.

Had the pleasure of trying on both new Speedies in my local boutique today. Really like them both. If I didn't already have an Ed White 321 I'd definitely consider the steel version. Didn't expect to like the moonshine gold version as I'm not sure I could carry off a full yellow gold watch and bracelet. Pleasantly surprised - the black dial helps to offset the gold and I really liked the weight of the watch on wrist. If I had a spare £40k kicking around I would give it some consideration!!

.... except we all know it will be not much more than half price on C24 once you give it a few years, so perhaps one I will keep an eye on 😜

Question: How are they selling? Have the OB and ADs sold out and are taking names for a waiting list?

My guess is no but if they are sold out something tells me that 6-12 months from now they will be readily available at all OBs and ADs.

Thoughts?

You are more than likely correct. I got the white one within a week of asking for it, same for the FOIS.

I was told 1-2 currently available in store but prioritising known customers first. Got the impression normal supply within a couple of months or so, rather than 6-12 months. Guessing like the white dial was like, although also depends where in the world you are.

I'm guessing the same with the white dial as well. So there's no rush to get one is what I would like to conclude. Thanks.

Mine arrived today - bought it online from a well known UK retailer. With a 25% deposit and the rest on 0% finance it was an easy purchase (well for me, and hopefully for Mrs K when I eventually tell her …) It is really nice, more so on leather than steel I think…

Profile photo of the sapphire: slightly more domed than the classic version. The milky ring has almost disappeared, but it’s still not as domed as the FOIS.

Completely agree, the leather strap was the first thing I did as soon as I received it.

Very nice ! I'm curious to see this watch with the rubber strap. I did a photomontage, but I'm not sure about the result.

Looks exactly like my regular 3861 Speedmaster pro. I wonder if the panda crystal has a different part number.

Local AD has one in the window. Hopefully I can have a closer look next week. They did say lots of enquires when announced but none have turned into sales.

Looked nice next to the standard SS 3861.

I purchased it through my Omega stor, and there were no issues obtaining it.
