Hi Guys,
Managed to score one of these yesterday. ETA - August 2018 I'm told.
Looks alone, this is an awesome piece with the orange motifs and DON (dot over ninety). NATO is somewhat ho hum but the leather strap has promise.
Movement is the standard 1861 so hardly any surprises there. As for me, being a 1st time Speedy Tuesday owner is an exciting prospect.
One little bummer about the whole limited edition thing is the fact Omega keeps dishing them out. Exclusivity is somewhat diminished but hey...that's the supposed narrative of the brand :thumbsup:
Your thoughts?

Hi welcome to the forum and congrats on your SpeedyTuesday Ultraman :thumbsup:
Speedy has been getting more popular in last few years especially on the vintage ones. It is inevitable for Omega (or any manufacturers) to capture the wave.
The good news is, the standard version moonwatch is still available with pretty affordable price I must say. You can even get some decent discount from the friendly ADs.
That being said, I can't wait for my Ultraman to arrive too ;D
-
Hi Welcome to the forum.
I also managed to booked a Ultraman too ! Hope can get it next month & is a wonderful piece !
What You will bring to collect Your Ultraman other than money or credit card... I will bring a dinosaur for Ultraman do his job, safe the World !
Ultraman faster come to Your supporters !
Regards;
Sky

Ah congrats on yr order :laugh:
Definitely riding on the popularity wave right now. Doesn’t look it’s waning either since it has been 1.5 yrs post speedy 1.
Judging by yestersay’s response, more and more folks are buying into it. So much for all the negativity on unlimited no of limited editions :-[
Apparently one was snapped up on ebay for circa usd14k. Go figure :shocked1:
Rgds.

RM6000 more on the retail price (forget about getting a discount on this) on a NATO compare to a standard Moonwatch on a steel bracelet. Ok the stepped sub-dials, DON bezel, touches of orange and goodies provided with the watch bring something different. But I am still puzzled and would not have personally bought this particular model.
From what happened with the previous Snoopy award LE and last year Speedy Tuesday LE, I suspect a lot of people are trying to make a quick and easy profit on those watches.

Me thinks there are hordes of people out there trying to make a fast buck on any ‘hot’ item they get their hands on. Rolex Daytona GMT root beer anyone?
Premiums are appalling nowadays but what can you do when there’s nary a thing that turns a fairly quick profit these days... :'(
-
Too late for me, all unit fully booked. >:(
-
Was thinking of selling mine but its growing on me. Sort of a cross between classic and modern looks imo.
-
Congrats on the Ultraman being your 1st Speedy! Unusual but not unheard of.
And check out that awesome hexagonal presentation box :Cheers:

Conditional SPA before completion very risky lorrr. Luckily no need to sign SPA for watch :)
-
I got mine too. Will be my 2nd speedy. The colors are eye popping.
I think Omega's limited editions are getting more attention nowadays thanks to watch blogs such as Fratello.
Also the power of Instagram as I only noticed the news from IG and immediately stalking Omega's website. ;D

Yes...naysayers aside, online ordering has turned out be less of a gimmick and indeed a fairer way for us mere mortals to purchase.
I mean, look at the dastardly practice of certain establishments selling popular models in packages. Should be looked at from the angles of anti-profiteering and restrictive trade practices >:(
Preferential treatment for VVIPs is a sore point for many of us and should be reviewed by parent companies.

Couldn’t agree more with you.
We place our orders online for a fair price and get what we pay for without drama and requests from unscrupulous ADs/Boutiques to buy other pieces first or add a premium on the MSRP.
Similarly, the massive price increase in the last 10 years from most of the Swiss brands (and a particular British one) to appear more high-end is insane. Except a handful of brands, they can all be had at 20%-30% off. What does it say about the real value of their products?

Easiest thing to do is boycott the establishments and hope for sanity to prevail some day. But do we live in a sane world though... :-\

If only adequate notice were given for everyone to have a fair chance.
But I suppose reality always rears its ugly head in that fairness constantly plays second fiddle in the desire for commercial success :(

There are heads up if you follow #speedytuesday in FB and insta or in Omega Forum.
Email alert was sent out 6 hours prior to the launch.

Granted it is a change from the normal speedy pro but Omega has been doing this yearly launching one edition after another. It's getting stale. Remember panerai and what happened after...l am just glad I picked up the Tintin when I saw it.
I guess some just wanna get one thinking they will make some money if they resell.

Let’s see how much they’ll go for in the pre-owned market. Guessing it will be sizeable premium.

sadly, didn't manage to get a unit. I think now the resale market in Singapore is going at SGD15k. I am not sure if they are buyers for this price or not. Let's see.

just try to search them in Carousell, you shall find few posts.
-
Yes tks. Got it.
As high as SGD18k+. Madness!
-
just wait till everyone gets their speedy, i believe the price will be reduced. There are 2012 units.
-
Yeah prices will correct for sure but to what level... :-\
If the hype and look of the watch are anything to go by, I expect it will probably settle to a point higher than ST1.

hoping to get it delivered before SST ;D

Unlikely but fingers crossed :thumbsup:.

It's mid-August and saw the IG update from Omega regarding the progress... hopefully it can reach our shores very soon.
-
Fingers crossed but post September arrival is probably more realistic.
-
I’m just wondering what the SST rate would be like? Anyways, I’m still hoping they would stick to the listed price because during the bid it’s mentioned that the price is including taxes… it’s a long shot but still hoping

Most likely 10%. Hopefully, this was factored into the email quote.

1 AD has more or less committed to September 2018 delivery date.
SST :(

Nice Tintin. Price of this reference is moving upwards. Will be future classic.

Actually yes...the market is being flooded with them. Can't be fanatical about collecting them. Just the ones we really desire.

Got mine a couple of weeks ago. Ok watch at the retail price of RM20k+ in my humble opinion.
Presentation doesn't lack pizzaz though :thumbsup:
