Probably gonna sell my GMT master 2 root beer to fund my purchase of this watch.

Will probably buy it preowned from a grey dealer and save some $.

white gold hands have light reflection which I find much easier to read with than the matte blue hands over the matte blue sub dials of the snoopy-50-III

Spoke with SA yesterday about the white dial Speedmaster.

He said he would have more information in March.

They were not taking deposits but he did ask for my contact information.

Might be they want to steal (again) attention from Watches & Wonders as they did with Moonswatch 2 years ago.

As you guys know I have a few omegas lol

I’m a regular client of 5th avenue and a client of the brand for years. I've chatted with the team and these are all speculations. No one really know as OMEGA doesn’t tell anyone

This would be very interesting if the white isn’t released. My boutique took a deposit for one and assures me it’s being announced at some point in next 2 months.

My AD tells me this is real and will drop in the next week - 2 wks. Who knows for sure. Also told that it will not be a ltd edition. As many here say, if these are released, then they will be snapped up quickly at least in the beginning. With that in mind, since I am on 'the list', would resellers be paying over list for these in the event I didn't want to keep it? Appreciate the insight.

I've never sold a watch, but it's nice to know you can get out at a profit or without a big hit if you decided to. Pretty reasonable question IMO and important thing to know about any large purchase you might make.....but I understand this can be a third rail topic, so thank you for any one who might care to entertain an answer.

No one can predict the future but if it's not limited you'll be lucky to get 80% of MSRP back.

If you can get a watch in the initial release then I would believe you will be able to make a small amount above msrp should you sell. If you wait until the watch is more readily available then you will not and could lose 10-30% off what you paid. These are the general numbers my experience has shown me.

New white speedy pro

The moment omega has a line that doesn't lose value after purchase the lines will start. That creates more demand out of thin air because it is seen as a risk free transaction like buying a submariner on a credit card.

I see Nashville has an Ed white for $17.5k. That's upside down already too. Man did I overpay last month.
