Mrk,
What watch strap removal tool have you got ?

That is the Quartz version though.
I got mine from Swiss Watches Direct for £2200. The downside to this option is no interest free finance from the vendor but you could stick it on an interest free CC for a short period.
The latest model (212.30.41.20.01.003) does improve on some areas over the pre 2012 watch.
Went along to a local Jewellers to pick up a Breitling. Sadly, just 3 days earlier they'd been robbed by armed (Axes and Pistols) and they'd made off with all their Breitlings and Rolex stock!
So thoughtless.
For info, I was looking at the Breitling Superocean 42.
You mean like saying "this pen works in space!" Whilst sitting on earth with no chance of going into space.
Yes it's good for the inner geeks but ultimately pointless, it's as useful as those helium valve at 300m.

It did go to space/land on the moon. They qualified a bunch of watches and the Speedmaster was the only one that passed, therefore it was the only one that went to the moon.
Heritage is a good marketing tool, so you can't exactly blame a company for making good use of its heritage.
That one did, not the on you buy in the store, not the one on your wrist. That was my point, was I not clear with the mugs analogy?
It is a good marketing tool, marketing, it's all that is.
You buy into the ad that this watch gives you that lifestyle these people have. Same as smoking a cigarette somehow make you look cool and attract women, or spray lynx means all these supermodels runs towards you.
Marketing.
A mugs holds liquid. A watch tells the time, but not all watches (pre-1969) will tell the time on the moon or make it into space without experiencing some kind of problem.
I don't think Omega states anywhere that if you buy a Speedmaster you will automatically go to the moon. It implies that the watch has been, and if you ever took the one you bought in the store to the moon (highly unlikely!) then it would perform the same as the ones that did go to the moon.
Lynx implies that it will make you more attractive to women and they will throw themselves at you. Omega do not state anywhere that if you buy a Speedmaster, it automatically qualifies you to step onboard a NASA spacecraft and fly into space.
Anyway, yes it's a good marketing tool, but at least there is justification behind the marketing.

It's the same idea, the fact that you think there is something more to their marketing than any other company means you are totally bought into the whole thing and not looking into it like any other man made product that has no uniqueness to it. Yes, its not unique. A Speedmaster is a Speedmaster is a Speedmaster.
There may be a handful of watches that went into space, yours isn't one of them, everything else is just hot air that you buy into that makes you think yours is something special. It isn't. It is just an expensive watch.
I am sure a Quartz will works just as well, after all, all the instruments onboard are digital. You don't see that in the marketing !
It's like the space pen thing, a pencil will work too. You don't see people who make pencils making that as a selling point.
RIP my watch winder that i ordered on Sunday. Delivery from DPD
