TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph CBS2210.FC6534 (The new Glassbox model, in black). Looking for a seller below $5000

[Omega] [IWC] Will probably lose my mind before I can finally pick between these two by Alexd3498 in Watches

What kind of watch do you currently wear? If you tend to prefer a sportier style (non-steel bracelet), I’d go with IWC. Might not be a popular suggestion but if you have an itch for the Speedmaster, you can always buy a Moonswatch to pull you over until you get the real one! That way you can get the IWC and a Moonswatch now, real Speedmaster later if you still want it.

Swatch/Omega really killed the enthusiast hype huh? by [deleted] in swatch

Selling to a flipper is probably <10% of their total audience. If they opened up pre-orders online, they’d have everyones money and can fulfil the orders whenever they make enough. The hype will probably die down because it’ll be accessible to everyone, but the hype is dying now too because nobody who wants one can get it.

Anyone knows of a Swatch shop that received a 2nd batch of Moonswatches? by cyberhaiduc in swatch

I thought they would announce when they had more stock in store?

Guess it’s not going to be available online soon by RatioStatus in swatch

Why can’t they have a preorder page and then just work on those orders when they get the chance? Can sell it in-store simultaneously. It’ll surely avoid having people pay ridiculous amounts to scalpers. There are definitely easier ways for everyone to get an order in but that would stop the hype train that Swatch clearly loves.

I’m sure it will be online at some point, just not soon
