The Hodinkee 10th Anniversary Speedmaster


Looks like all my watches are being delivered back-to-back.  I'm not complaining!  This one was delayed from an initially expected November 2018 delivery.

Some first shots of this beauty.  Not your average Moon Watch limited edition.  This LE is based on the First Omega in Space (FOIS) Speedmaster.

I think 220 were sold directly from H's online store while the remainder were sold via US-based Omega Boutiques.

Thanks Nico!

This is 1 of 3 delayed delivery watches. Two more to go. Patiently waiting...;-)))

These watches were all bought before this year

They are or will be delivered late due to "production delays" at the manufacture. Now it looks like they'll be delivered close together. So it's not as bad as it looks ;-))) One of these delayed watches I have been waiting for for 8 years! No joke unfortu... 

Hints on which ones? [nt]

Fully paid for now. The payment process was done via multiple payments

It was "crowd-source" funding way before that term became fashionable. But yes, I and many, if not all the other initial "buyers" do think 8 years is way past the ridiculous. I would've asked for a refund if the project weren't so close to completion and ... 

Shame it wears big.

What else is incoming then?

Wears big? Not sure I understand as it is smaller than a regular edition Moon Watch

The Moon Watch has a diameter of 42 mm while this watch (like the FOIS and CK2998 LE's before it) are 39 mm.

Very nice. It does seem like an avalanche of deliveries.

Mine arrived too. I'm not sure how I feel about it as it (like yours) has arrived with a bunch of other friends.

Congrats Jay

After the November 2018 delivery evaporated into thin air I was expecting another Speedy Ultraman type of delay (almost a year late). Pleasantly surprised this watch was "only" 3 months late.
