How long is the wait (in the States) these days?

Do the Boutiques need a long purchase history?

I think quite variable depending on the boutique/customer relationship approach. Some members here received a 321 within a year with no purchase history, some were told to take a hike with long purchase histories, some still waiting. But, no harm in asking - ask around and have an honest convo of what you’re looking for. Nerding out a bit on NASA also helps imo. Best wishes on the hunt!

Got this nice little plexiglass display case on Amazon for my Omegas and Seikos. Love love love my Ed White. Can’t stop wearing it. Bracelet is wonderful on the wrist

Finally got the call for my Speedmaster 321. It's worth the wait and worth the hype, it's amazing.

Agreed, worth the wait and now easily my "deserted Island" watch, replacing my Rolex 126600 (which had replaced my PAM233)

p.s. very nice macros, btw

[neekon]

Thank you all. It is really amazing. could potentially be my "deserted island" watch as well.
this and the bond 60 will be my 2 watch collection for a while.

thank you, still trying to master my watch photography

Congrats! Seems like Omega released a batch of 321's with quite a few incomings on the Speedmaster FB group, Omegaforums and here.

Which boutique did you get this from?

[Vipes]

Thanks! I got it from the Dallas OB.

Congratulations on getting your new watch.

I know that some people do not see the value in the 321 when compared to a moonwatch, but I really like mine to the point that it has become my daily wearer since I got it.

I hope you, and the others who have managed to get one, enjoy your's as much as I enjoy mine.

It fills so many roles for me. It could definitely serve as a daily, it’s low key enough to wear when you don’t want to stand out yet up close every detail is accounted for, it has more history than probably any watch produced today, and it’s exposed movement is historically important and beautiful - I don’t feel as much need for a high horology piece with this in the collection.

The ONE limitation, and it’s a theoretical one… I don’t think this is a go everywhere, do anything watch. Due to it not being very easy to find, service only in Switzerland, and the non-screw down crown, I do tend to be careful with it, maybe more than I should. So in more “active” pursuits I’ll wear my DJ or Apple Watch.

Hope I'm allowed to ask this here... has anyone picked up one of these recently on the grey market or seen any actual transaction prices? I'm trying to negotiate on a new Dec 2022 one and wondering what a fair price would be to offer. Thanks!

A good place to start is Chrono24 (Google it). Keep in mind that most listings are from professional dealers, thus the prices will be higher than that of a "closing deal"

Best of luck - it's really worth it

Thank you. I did check Chrono24 but there seems to be quite a big range on pricing so I was hoping someone may have purchased recently that could give me some ballpark on what to offer.

I also tried searching TRF for sale section but "321" and "Ed White" doesn't seem to show anything.

I’m selling one right now 10/22 card and it’s truly like new. Bought it fully stickered in October and wore it half a dozen times there’s no signs of wear. I guarantee you I’ll be cheaper than anything you find on chrono.

I couldn’t help myself and bought another Journe so raising funds.

Sacrilege Sorry to hear it didn’t stick.

When I decided to list it the first thing I thought was Brian will not be happy lol

This is a near perfect watch. The 15202st is a similar perfectly executed rendition of a classic and that didn’t stick with me either so it’s not the watch it’s just me doing my usual pick shiny thing up put shiny thing down

[GB-man]

Ah I didn’t notice you were in Asia my friend that could be an issue with me shipping. I’d be looking to pay roughly 19k USD for a new example and slightly less if preowned.

All good. It’s pretty incredible that you’ve been able to try a lot of really great watches.

Oh man, just saw your post. Wish I was still in the US now lol, shipping + import duties would probably make it not feasible price wise so I’m trying to find something local first. Thank you for the price point though!
