  1. There must be somewhere. Oh, and your insert needs aligning too!
  2. http://www.hirschag.com/en/ Take your pick!
  3. I have both the old blue Chrono and a new yellow one. My preference is by far the original blue.
  4. Yes, that's what I thought. They are asking over $5000! Hahahaha!!!
  5. There is a gen in a local jewellers. It's boxed with papers and in great condition, but it's priced at £3500!!!! I asked the shop owner if there was a misprint and he said "no, the owner of the watch thinks that because it's a limited edition it's worth it!" Whilst I love a nice Omega (rep and gen), £3500 is at least twice what I'd even think about paying.
  6. Thanks buddy. Thet are great watches. I seem to have a soft spot for them as I have one of each colour! I'm sure you'll love yours when it arrives.
  7. Ebay or any (rep or gen) watch forum.
  8. Strangely enough, I'm wearing my yellow today!
  9. The new only photo I have of it - and I can't take another at the moment as I'm at work.
  10. I have both. The White makes the dial seem smaller and less well balanced. Whist is nice to have a change from a 'boring' all black, my white only comes out occasionally. In fact my black is on a Pro II bracelet and is one of my most worn watches.
  11. If I remember correctly, OMEGA should be connected in the middle of the letters not along the bottom of them, but unless you study the watch close up, you'll never see it anyway. Same goes for ghe happy feet logo.

    Look at our trusted dealers. They should be able to source one for you.
  13. These are reps and will have issues. If the watch is a keeper then find a local watchsmith who is rep friendly and have them install a new tube. Sending watches back to China is a no go for me - what's to say the next one won't be the same when it turns up, plus the expense and waiting time.
  14. There are several issues with these reps. The bezel insert could be realigned once you recieve it if needed. The PO clasp is clearly wrong but could be changed out if it bothers you. Other issues that are less easy to fix - the Omega logo has 'happy feet' and the sub dial hands are too short, both known issues on this watch. To be honest, once it's on your wrist you'd not notice them anyway.
  15. I always pay the PayPal fee if it's not included. On rare occasions, such as dealing with AJ as I have several times, I'm happy to use a gift payment. As ALWAYS, buy the seller first. I had a narrow escape when I first joined by buying a Seamaster Chrono, the seller wanted a gift payment I offered to pay the fees and how could he say no. He didn't sent the watch and disappeared, but not before fleecing several members with his demands for a gift payment. I was lucky and got my money back.
  16. He promised me a refund when he got paid. Then he's waiting on receiving a PayPal payment himself before he can refund me. I wonder if I should add my travel time and expenses to my bill for him? A visit is being planned with some fellow RG members ....
  17. If it's the keyless works send it to a good watchsmith. If you're in the EU SSteel is a great member who can help you.
  18. The TD did not complete the contract by failing to ship using the correct method. Therefore they should cover ANY loss you bear.
  19. Moab is as good as anybody. And well done Micky.
  20. Don't Google them. Have you really tried the links? I randomly picked Trusty - www.trusty-watch.com and it loaded fine.
  21. Sorry no, although a Seamaster of some kind would be my guess as it has a divers extension.
  22. I hope you popped the crown out as soon as it happened to stop it running. You don't want any shards in a running movement. Hope you get it fixed okay.
  23. Spend more money and get the better version. It sounds like you want the reassurance that you've bought the 'best' version available. For an extra $80 I think you'll have peace of mind.
  24. I feel left out Legend - will you be my friend too?
