CK, congratulations...


What I liked about the watch :-

(1) reverse panda dial .. nice
(2) lume
(3) the presentation packaging
(4) back engraving project Alaska III n Speedy Tuesday
(5) old style logo on crown
(6) hesalite used and radial circles

Very nice  :thumbsup:. But as is with all Speedy Pro, my fingers are too big to wind the watch as the crown is recessed. I would however make it work if it were a Snoopy.
Your ONLY job in this world is to make sure that you are happy

the elusive snoopy! i tried to love the CK2998, but it just didn't work for me. ck77 pointed it out to me before, on how the ck2998 is not that legible. once i saw that, i just couldn't accept the watch. the moonwatch is supposed to be the ultimate tool watch, one that is used in space and actually was used by Buzz Aldrin to time the spaceships distance. not being legible makes it less of a tool watch to me.

this on the other hand... looks legible. the reversed panda dial looks beautiful. and for some reason, i prefer the moonwatch on nato. so tick on all fronts.

plus, i need a watch before i get my patek. on a 3 year waiting list. this will do.

Is wise move for omega to allow booking online rather than thru AD.. everyone has a fair chance to own a LE Speedy

If you didn't get it. Try again around 9pm to 10pm tonight. If someone forgot to reconfirm in their email, the watch gets released and you can reserve. Good luck.
