Finally after 12 years ,with encouragement I managed to add Omega Alaska ReEdition to my humble collection of omega timepieces...

I missed so many opportunities and every time it achieved a higher milestone of price I was moving away from it. I still believe that it is still undervalued and will be attaining if not half the price mark of the Snoopy awards 45th...well as they say it’s not always the financial side or appreciation but the watch itself is stunning and I just love the needles and the dial of this beast ...
It is in HK at the moment and in few days it shall be with me .

Enjoy it in good health, the hunt is half the fun!

Congratulations! The “Alaska Project” has always been on my list.

I agree, the best modern speedmaster. From the looks of it, market agrees as well, as values have more than doubled in the last 2-3 years. I’m sure you are aware if you have hunted this one long. Enjoy it well!

Thanks !

It's going to be difficult wearing fully decked out . . .

. . . as intended by the design team . . . . . . but more power to you if your wrist can pull it off! As I've said before, it's the perfect watch to wear at a Panerai event. ;-) ...  

awesome project

I have been around the Alaska myself so many times - but have not pulled it yet... you are putting wood on my fire to get one myself
