Amazing to me how pro-Omega people find handing over their money for X number of months (or a year+) completely fine.

Omega has pulled the same trick as Rolex, just in a different form.

I don’t mind it at all.

Just gotta wait, but you’re gonna get the watch. They wouldn’t take the deposit otherwise, that’s why Omega closed deposits on Snoopy 50 the day after release. They had too many deposits and knew they couldn’t fulfill all of them within that year timeframe. One year is long, but reasonable.

I’d rather do that then play the AD games with Rolex - bundling, grey market, etc.

Plus this is a sure way to retain value on the watch, and Omega can produce based on demand and not oversupply. I’m glad for the watches to have value retention.

With that said... 321 is not my cup of tea.
