Nice watch but I still like the classic, to many LE from Omega.

With a new CK2998 just added to the collection I'll pass on this one. Truth be told I'm not a massive fan of the hesalite crystal but most of all there is no way in hell I'd pay retail on a speedy.
Will maybe get one when they come on the preowned market.

I reserved one, but I'm not sure what the reservation really means, when they don't even ask for a CC number or deposit and include language like this in the confirmation email: "We do not guarantee that the assigned or chosen limited edition number or any reserved watch will be available for sale."

I suppose it's not surprising that they're all reserved, since it doesn't cost anything to do so and I'm sure many people that reserved will end up not picking them up. What happens then? Also, will Omega try to prevent someone (i.e., grey dealer) from ordering multiples? I didn't notice any restrictions on how many one person can order. Lots of uncertainties it seems - I guess we will see what happens.

I reserved one. Can't wait to see it.

Would have been nice if it included a bracelet. I think it will look awesome on a bracelet.

Reserved as well - hard not to.

Any thoughts on how these will do on the secondary market?

You will find them at Jomashop for a 20% discount just like all the other "limited edition" Speedy's after they come out.

I don't think these are going to appear in the grey market... other than in a similar fashion to the silver Snoopy, at a markup rather than a discount.

I reserved one this morning, this is the best looking LE Speedmaster in a very long time, perhaps ever (much more so than the CK2998, the Snoopy, whatever). I'll wear it, not collect it. What is not to enjoy? Brushed case? Check. Reversed panda dial? Check? Applied logo? Check. Lume that works? Check?

I tend to agree there seem to be a bit too many LEs coming from omega (all with the same movement... ehem) but frankly I like this one very much.

Omega runs the risk of becoming the new Hublot, and the Speedmaster line becoming the new Big Bang. I mean, how many times can you beat a dead horse?

I live on the West Coast U.S. and this baby was soldout before I even got up. Seeing the fact that it was gone before I could get in the game and the panic over the Snoppy (don't like) and the CK I don't think the horse is anywhere near dead yet.

I think this is a great watch. This is an attempt to meet customer needs and desires. I love the fact that Omega makes a lot of different versions. Makes me an Omega fan.
