I only wish I had $500 to spare.

Looks nice though. Seems like it has sold well enough as they seem to be out of stock so far. I do bet many people who ordered may not have been fully aware of the fact they will owe more on it later, so I will guess another shot to order will come back closer to release for those that wanted it.

Watches like that are usually only worth around 250-300. I know there's a limited number and it's slightly more niche, but the extra markup just puts it way out of my interest level.

This is actually my exact thinking. I don't know how theyre out of stock. I think the watch is rather impressive, but so is the price. For maybe $200 I would've shelled out the money. Like the other poster said, I feel like I have to have everything as well but this is just way too much!

The store just updated to say that they've sold 200 deposits and more will be made available in the future. Anybody thinking about getting one?
I actually ordered one the moment I saw there were cool watches available. They seem pretty neat, quite expensive imo but if they are limited, then the chances of getting one later are slim so I thought it'd be worth getting one.
Can anyone explain how they still got more available tho, if there only was 500 to start with? So they only 'released' 200 at a time in total, or just in the U.S (I ordered from EU warehouse). Why not have all avaiable for deposition at once?

Only 200 were able to be released by the holidays. So we released 200, with the remaining 300 going up for sale in a few weeks for a Q1 delivery.

Besides - nothing is limited or sold out, while a customer is willing to pay any price - I'm sure, if I would contact MSTR and would offer them 2000$ they would make this watch for me [by changing some of the elements of one of the watches from their standard collections, etc.
It's OK, to release DLCs, it's OK to make a ME-Trilogy box without any important DLCs [ have already ME 1, ME 2 CE + all DLCs and ME 3 N7 CE + all DLCs, so this is not so interesting for me right now], but charging plenty of money for everything with N7 sign on it is NOT OK. politics...politics...
With my best regards

Looks pretty awesome, because of N7 design elements, BUT: 500$? No thanks. For 150 - 200$ I would 100.0% take it [this is actually the normal price for that class of watches], but making them "limited", of course have to increase the price... By paying 500$ you can also get e.g. TIMEX 730 Series FLY-BACK Chronograph or another one "pretty good-quality" watch - no unknown, no-name product as for MSTR. Sorry BioWare, but this strategy [marketing] is not as good as someone maybe has to think. It's just the same thing as for N7 Elite Armour Stripe Hoody - of course limited, of course sold out - but someday you can get them for 2x price - typical strategy in our "free enterprise system."

Those are the MSTR Ambassador watches, the N7 is simply in ME colours, no other modification. Those watches are yet sold for 400$ (I believe the ones for 280$ are leather band, dunno how that can make 120$ diff).
Just saying, its not like they had a 100$ watch and put 300-400$ (whatever the watch costs in USD) for the N7-tag.
And yes some things are limited, cause its the best way to keep the prices up. I dont know much about cars, cause I dont care bout cars, but afaik there are some Ferraris and other brands who make certain models in very limited edition, no matter the money offered by über rich people. Example: Aston Martin One-77. Bad example in comparison with some watch? Yeah maybe, but point still valid :>

Ohh god...rants have found their way into this forum section...
Btw they have the right to charge whatever they want, it's their product so it's their decision, if you don't like it don't buy...
Our "rants", our decision to post them. If you don't like them, don't read/reply.

Not sure if your freedom of reply´s decision doesn´t also cover my decision to freely comment of his rant... your point of view seems kind of biased...
But hey... it´s your thread , I removed the post

Right.
Anyway, don't get me wrong--it's a beautiful watch. I just feel that at least for me (and many others as I've seen) the price isn't right.

Even though it doesn't say "Sold Out", the item is unavailable when I add to cart. Are the watches actually sold out or are they waiting for the holiday shipment to pass by?
