Dear Friends,

Please allow me to share some WS and macros of my latest member of the collection, Speedmaster Apollo 11 50th anniversary.

And here’s something I didn’t appreciated until today.. the double AR coat made it very easy to take wrist shots even in boutique with spot lights. More photos to share later but here are a few quick ones of the speedy.

Best regards and happy fridays !










Cheeky shot wink Had to do it.

Did you ask if the bracelet is available separately by any chance?

Hi Vinnie, thank you for kind words.

I think you have a good point; I asked for it during the product launch event last month and didn’t quite get definitive answer... best regards and HAGWE !

They hit it out of the park on the bracelet!

Any reason as to why the index at 11 is different than the other ones?

Certainly so! thanks

A discrete nod it is

Hearty congratulations on this new beauty!

We should not be surprised that your fine photos show it off superbly, as company photos did not. I have thought, however, from the first pic I saw, that Omega chose wisely on the color of the dial. Marvelously distinctive, yet understated. Perhaps not so... 

Hi there my friend, and thank you for your kind words

You are right,.. the moonshine gold is a treat to the eyes in the real. Good use of double AR on the crystal too also the wearer to appreciate it a little bit more Ah. The Speedy Alaska was what I wore today when I got the call from the boutique. i change... 

I see we are virtually the same temperature. But your humidity 82%, while ours 55%. What a difference that will make! Our last week, here in the Midwest, was like that.

Crushing humidity. But what can one expect surrounded by oceans of corn 6'-7' high? The land breathes, and we suffer! So happy to hear that both are yours. Do you have others? I have always wanted an Appolo Soyuz. Well… perhaps someday. Happy with this on...  

Nice shot of the calibre 1863, Fred

They dont make too many Speedmasters with the 1863. I like the Soyuz very much. And the meteorite version is uber cool too. Best regards

You're a sharp one to spot that, Seeks. And thank you. Any decent watch shot with a cell phone is a triumph, indeed.

Say… How's the honeymoon? Don't you just wish that at times like these absolutely every person you pass would say—as they might comment about your tie, or jacket—"My, isn't that a lovely piece! Where did you get it?" Even better, of course, would be. "Wow... 

oh you are most welcome and many thanks for sharing the photo

 
 By: Seeks : July 14th, 2019-08:15
The 1863 is a marvel. The honeymoon goes on and on i think for this .. Will share more pics soon. Have a great Sunday! best regards

many thanks darren!

That is a very nice catch, just in time before the big day 7/20 or 7/21 celebration, depending on location...
