Watch looks good on grey nato too, very versatile.

Some people hate reissues. I love ém!

Best of both worlds. Looking good on you Raymond.

Mine says hi

This model is the least favorite and on Omega website, you can still “Add to basket”.

Having said that, I think it's one of those pieces that will climb up after the usual long dip. And my reasoning is purely subjective. It's quite a photogenic watch but in person, if you're not used to a 38mm piece, it will seem small. I almost had doubts at the point where the order came in and I was there seeing it for the first time.

But then this watch is the very definition of a sleeper. Once I got over the size issue and heck, even the indices, i find myself reaching out for it when I need to visit a client when I'd usually go for a Rolex or a JLC for example. So I think it's going to be the same over time for most folks who get lured by the RM. From sleeper to keeper it becomes.

It'll disappear from shops after awhile like your Alaska Project. The RM may not shoot up in value but i think it has a good chance of keeping it. But we're talking longer horizons here. Not good for those who flip. I can sometimes kick myself for overlooking the Alaska Project back in the day.. especially the white dial Speedy with the July 20, 1969 red print on the dial. I was offered it years ago when it went out (they even gave me a blue commemorative shirt) but passed thinking that it would have been better if they didn't have the red print on it a la mitsukoshi dial. Oh well

But yeah, 1,957 would have been preferred

Actually speaking of white dial Speedy, I think that Tokyo 2020 Red bezel is stunning.
I agree to your observations and hope for the best.
If you look at the Silver Snoopy here in the Collectors Market, 2-3 years ago it was about the current level of the Alaska Project so that’s why I jump on the Alaska Project now.
No crystal ball but better late than never, IMO.

..

the limited edition number of 333

But not guaranteed...so I was lucky my sales fought a nice number.
Today, it’s not possible anymore unless you’re the very top client, like I heard the #1 always goes to a Mega NY client 😊
Thanks Seeks

My Railmaster is numbered 3303/3557. It’s really the best re-edition of these editions. A real sleeper watch IMHO.
I, for one, will not be surprised if it’s turned out to be the most sought after watch among the trinity after a decade.

Hope for the best and I can definitely wait 10 yrs

Personally I belief this to be one of the most desirable omega watches.

Somehow it “speaks” to me (and many others)

I have a brown leather strap that also looks good. But the bracelet on this one...

I tried one on a few months ago but never got around to pulling the trigger. I don’t know why...maybe I need to give it a second chance 

If “nobody” wants it why should I pick it up?

This is the dilemma right? We always want something that’s no longer available.
