I totally get where you're coming from and agree. Some OB's can secure allocation even with no purchase history. It's definitely worth a shot

If I find one in a OB I will wear my 1976 Montreal Albatros Chrono-Quartz and remind them that I have been a customer for 48 years.

I stopped by Omega after work and was able to see / try on the new FOIS. This is no exaggeration; it might be one of the most beautiful watches I've ever seen in my life. No watch is perfect, but the new FOIS might be as close as I've ever seen.

Also with Feldmar, they’ll let you know if they can’t source the watch and which OB to go to. They did that with my Spectre - told me no way they would get a true LE and sent me to the Beverly Center boutique. This was back in 2015, so the watch market was a little different (although not sure how different it really is with respect to Omega (versus Rolex’s huge shift)), but they had 3 Spectre models (the only three in the LA area left) and I snagged one. No discount, but got the watch for MSRP and not a cent more.

I have been waiting for a snoopy for four years just to give you an idea. If I can get one I will not be getting the New FOIS.

Still looking for a cheap bad condition 3520.53 to do a restoration project on. I don’t mind only the watch head without the strap or bracelet.

I ordered my Seamaster from Chrono24 after closing a big deal, I look forward to receiving it in a few days. It's from 2006 and comes with warranty card and case.

The new FOIS is beautiful but IMHO there is something very special about the looks of the new Snoopy. I may have to consult with a psychiatrist as this desire/ obsession probably relates to something that happened to me in my childhood.

I too think the FOIS is beautiful but it's not 42mm which I love about my 3570.50. I can appreciate the Snoopy but I cannot justify the price tag. Obsession, I've only recently been self-diagnosed with Omega fever and am fighting hard to control it after the latest acquisition. I blame/credit my late father who's birthday was July 21 and told me as a boy how to remember the date.

My trophy from the closing of a big deal arrived this morning, I will think about my victory every time I wear it. I love my Moon watch but I find this quite beautiful.
