rek001 Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 Hi guys I contacted Trevor about getting the new Seamaster Pro 300 ceramic in blue, I chose him because he had the best price for a few other watches I want. He replied that he wouldn't recommend the new Seamaster ceramic, he's had too many problems and returns with it. This is news to me, I don't know if he was just blowing smoke because he ran out of them and couldn't get more or if it's the truth. Anyone care to comment?

luc717 Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 Hi Rek, I'm looking at picking up my first Omega rep. Are you talking about this model, as this is the one I'm planning to purchase? http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=35_114&products_id=11114 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrgod Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 Would be interesting to hear details about what problems he have had? I am also considering to buy.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rek001 Posted October 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Well you know Trevor, his english language skills are not very good. I could not get specifics out of him, and the lag time between e-mails was so long it was maddening, I gave up on the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolexman Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 QC on the ceramic SMP is on one of the best I have seen..... I also own one myself and it is perfect. So really strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest machineboy Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Mine had issues. Low hour hand got caught on the omega logo. Crown is crooked and won't screw completely down. Otherwise really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rek001 Posted October 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Yes, I still want one very much, but Trevor put this doubt in the back of my mind. i dunno, maybe the problem is with the dirty re-cycled ETA movement? Anyway, I may go for this SMP but from a dealer with excellent after sales support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteM Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 I heard that they self destruct after opening... Dealers are referring to them as the Mission Impossible model.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanaris Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Oh, I opened mine twice and nothing happened. Does it mean it's broken?? Sent from my iPad using Crapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmex Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 It's a nice watch. I own two... one 007 50 years with a 2892a2 clone and the blue with the 2824 gen. They are nice watches, but I do wish the blue one had a better bezel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickey Padge Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Tried to buy the 007 50th myself, gave up after terrible batches of QC pics, wonky hour markers, logos, bezels, and even entire dials off angle, one only had single sided AR too..... So, that's probably what he was suggesting, the QC on these pieces was the worst I have ever come across Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libertatia Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 Let me just say, I've been wearing mine everyday for the past month now. It looks good in a suit, looks good casual. And Omega isnt desperately in your face like rolex (no offence), rolex, a brand which everyone assumes if fake anyway. You're missing out as we speak. I must admit, a lot of the time i get distracted by the double a/r'd crystal, in fact I burnt myself cooking the other day. Mine arrived doa, but a local smithy sorted it. Worse come to the worst get it serviced, no biggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
