Omega

Attached is a screenshot of email I received at 2:30 am today. Of course, I was in bed, asleep or not. When the first speedy tuesday watch was posted for reservations, it was also in the middle of the night in the usa. When I discovered the posting the ne...  

I fully agree with you. I got a call yesterday from Omega boutique and was informed about the launch of the new Speedy Thusday at 10am. While I found the post page, everything was already reserved. Just like last year. Now we have to wait for another lett... 

Best, mahesh.,

just a copy past cause I'm too lazy to type it again This was my reply to a previous similar comment to this subject "Well I honestly disagree 100%. You have to look at the total production number. And talking about omega that is between 700.000 and 1.000... 

the logic of taking the total production of Omega is understandable. I consider it different for Omega & esp. for this product line because the entire line is crowded with 'LE' of different tweeks. take FPJ for instance, CB is close to 3k pcs & the annual... 

I think in reality, a not LE model might not reach the same production numbers as there were/are tons of variations. Imagine Patek makes a re edition of the tv screen chrono limited to 1000 watches.... they will be sold the same day! However the original ... 

This is what I did after my experience with Blancpain. As long as we keep buying after being treated like that, nothing will change. The Definition of luxury nowadays seems to be, that you pay a lot of money to be treated badly, just because it's exclusiv... 

Kapferer and Bastien list in “The Luxury Strategy” (p. 70f) “Dominate the client” and “Make it difficult for clients to buy” as two of these tactics. As long as this works, nothing will change (and the industry will believe in the saying "A sucker is born... 

But I did like the orange accents of this new Ultraman and that would have been enough for me to reserve one, if I could. In reality on paper, these Omega watches with calibre 1861 leave a lot to be desired, PR not to high modern standards, WR is not enou... 

Would be better if omega made 3 badges 12.00 CET 672 watches 18.00 CET 672 watches 24.00 CET 672 watches In that case it would be more fair for the rest of the world. And they should test their platform first cause I know quite a few guys that ALMOST got ... 

😁Now you need to tell Omega and/or RJ Broer about it for the next Speedy Tuesday release in 2019. 😅 It sounds like Omega needs to invest in a more robust IT infrastructure. They have undersized their IT environments. No hard feelings from me for missing o... 

It’s on my list to buy a Tudor soon, have to reward them for making appealing value-driven tool watches. Of course Tudor also plays the LE game (many past Black Bay editions).

Always a fan of the brand, but after an earlier series of bad service experiences, I had reduced my Omega count to 3, and over the last year now to 2. This was one last chance. That is it for me with Omega. There are so many other brands out there to have... 

since it was released when my part of the world was asleep. I was also told via an email from Mr. Aeschlimann that I would get "priority" for the 2018 iteration of the ST watch. After a few weeks I thought nothing of it as all new pieces of the ST1 watch ... 

Here’s my experience: On July 5, I got an email from an asst. manager at an Omega boutique I have done business with in the past. It said that the New Speedy Tuesday would be launching soon, around July 10 and to let them know if I was interested to know ... 

No message body

Here is the major issue: Omega had their email address book of those who were waitlisted for SpeedyTuesday_v1, and sent out an email circa January 2018 to those on said waitlist which promised a priority opportunity to reserve/purchase SpeedyTuesday_v2. T... 

Keeping their earlier promise will only satisfy those already on the Omega camp. They need new blood to grow the brand.

I think we are nearing capacity as far as the luxury market can go in terms of volume, the best strategy would be to sell more to repeat customers - I doubt first-time Omega buyer would even know about different LEs.

a site best remain anonymous. Watch companies don't care as long as whatever they make sells. In this case Omega can easily make one for whoever who wants one and is willing to pay for them. This come first serve first only attracts people buying to resel... 

...only have the original one from January PROMISING me I would be "in the FRONT of the queue" Velociphile

#EpicPublicRelationsFail #CheckandMateOmega #DropTheMicMoment #WillAeschlimannRespond?

What if they had 10.000 or 20.000 people on a list for this Ultraman? still a lot of them would not get it if they make only 2016 pieces

"...Of course, were there more than 2012 on the ST_v1 waitlist, (the total number of ST_v2 being offered), then this would have created a whole other set of issues with which Omega might have had to contend. We shall never know how many were on the ST_v1 ... 

I want to give a benefit of the doubt but after repeatedly reading the said email, I came to the conclusion that it was a hollow promise and a public relation stunt that disappoint rather excite, anger instead of appreciate, roast and jeer more than toast... 

(personal details redacted.) At least I got a reply. I checked and I received no GDPR mail. Probably caught and long deleted by my spam catcher. Velociphile ...  

Omega continue to impress 1 sent to wrong recipient 2 they checked I am not on the list. Great to know 3 sent me a copy of the email I never received. even better 4 “As soon as an amendment is available, we will let you know”. I’m taking that to mean my w... 

Fwiw, being the originator of this thread, no one from Omega has reached out to me, so you are clearly the favorite one!

put me on the waiting list for a cancellation. I'm so lucky, and I'm so excited. I'm hoping for #007.... hmm wrong character. How about #78 referring to his home planet or the IQ of the Omega marketing department
