These are very attractive, will be going down to London to pick up a Pluto if I get the chance. My fear is that the first load of stock in the stores will be emptied out in a day or two before I get down there.
More like an hour or two. Fallingup said:
Lot of money for a plastic swatch with only 3atm water resistance. Even the Chinese speedmaster copies are better than that and less than half the price.
Hmm. Last time I looked the Speedmaster only had 5atm WR, and the Chinese homages didn’t have Omega on the dial. These are going to sell out instantly.

The store will be opening earlier than usual that day at 9am and we do recommend customers interested in purchasing to make their way to the store early, as we are expecting large queues.

Not going to be an easy buy I’d imagine.

Popped into the Edinburgh shop this morning to have a look. They have the full set in the window - same story, no reservations, 2 per customer and they might be opening earlier in the morning on Saturday
The photography on the website, as with all things, is very flattering. They don't look quiet as good in the flesh, the straps don't look that great. The darker colours look better so the Moon & Mercury in particular. The other brighter colours do look a bit too plastic, but then they are!
I really liked the Saturn one from the images on the website but in real life the colours look a bit washed out and I much preferred the Mercury.
If you go in expecting way more Swatch than Omega then you'll be fine. It's definitely not an Omega speedmaster with a quartz module as someone suggested (possibly in jest)
It's an interesting collection and a nice everyday but if it's not limited then probably not much point in trying to get one on Sat.
