And I agree that 6969 pieces seems a lot for a LE, but on the other hand, all the allocations for the US (somewhere between 500 and 700) are already sold out.

The Asian market may be larger, but the Apollo 11 moon landing was mostly an American accomplishment, so I would have thought that a larger allocation than usual would have gone to the US market......just thinking out loud.

Thanks for the info and so glad to hear that you are confirmed. I was concerned for you since your deposit was relatively last minute.

Not a bad point. I wonder what the allotment to Russia is....

If they all sell out, it's an easy $70 million in the bank for Omega. Thanks NASA!

It’s possible! I got the impression from the OB in Orange County (one of the busiest in the U.S.) that while “in demand,” still a bit unknown out there because of the marketing. They have always been upfront with me and provided great service, so I believe them...also, appears they received the biggest allotments in the country...
