Got my Speedy today!!
I am now officially in the Speedy club! Thanks to Alfred (FNF4M). This is a 2018 model, anyone know where you can get Omega half links?

Half links are available from the Seamaster bracelet. Mine has fit perfectly since I did that mod!

Congrats and it seems just in time. Something tells me in a year from now every Speedy will get a bump in price when the new one comes out.

Congrats! I just got one myself less than a month ago and it's a great watch! It looks like you are a victim of the terrible bracelet as well. Only current solution is to get an adjustable clasp from an Omega boutique with 2 end links to get it to fit.

Probably less than a year.

Great watch, one of the few if not only "affordable" manual wind chronographs out there.

Can you post photos of yours with the clasp?

Or go with the Uncle Seiko offerings, which are quite awesome I might add
