I've had this 44mm 300 Diver Chrono almost 3 weeks.

Damn, do I ever like it. I stare at it quite often! I have worn it everyday. It Has a 7753 seems real quiet and keeps great time, say compared with my IPhone.

Bracelet is very comfortable and solid.

The date correction is a piece of cake using the button in the helium release valve. The crown seems very well seated and secure. Very smooth operating. I've played with the chrono a little. Buttons are positive. Sweep is super smooth and resets perfectly. The running seconds at 9:00 are also steady.

So thanks for the help and encouraging words.

I'm in New York. If someone can steer me toward an outfit that can provide a service at a reasonable cost and turn around, I'm willing to listen.

I am amazed by it myself. It is so cool, so seemingly accurate to gen. I play with the chrono a little. I would email that dealer and ask specific questions. Mine functions as it should, the date correction is slick. I had an excellent purchase with puretime. Hope that helps and thanks for the compliment!

I purchased the 7750 version of your Omega. after a few back and forth with information Andrew has asked me to send the unit back for a better one. So I am feeling better about this transaction. He is making it right.

I apologize for Rage texting.. is that a term? sounds good to me. I do feel so much better this did not have to get mafia ugly.

I have ordered 7 or more watches from trusty over the years.

well still keep this thread posted on replacement watch. at least now I know what qc pics to ask for. lumination and logo on internals.

question to pearl: do you have to put your watch at the 4:30 location to set the date on your omega from Joshua?

Mine has a pusher built in to the He escape valve. One push with a paper clip or similar will advance the date one day. Same as on the gen.

Doesn't matter what time it is. Works great.

It doesn't last real long. I notice that it's quite bright when I come in from outside. Maybe 20 min there might be a little left. It is crisp and blue and green though.

well its been about 6-7 weeks since i sent back the omega. all problems fixed, except the Andrew say that the factory only makes green lume dials... but his website clearly states blue and green correct lume.. so i was bait and switched. buyer beware of this clear deception. i have just gave him the link to puretime site and your pic of omage that has BLUE lume to show him that "the factory" is full of [censored].  sad deal because there are several more watches i am going to get but now i am concerned about his business practice.

That's too bad. I'm new to this, maybe I lucked out. I asked a lot of questions before I placed my order and everything went so smooth since. I adjusted the timing as I was loosing a few minutes a week. It's been almost a month since I opened it up. Now it's running nearly perfect. I'm still amazed by this thing!

Factories and dealers do whatever they can to sell - this is an unlicensed at best, illegal at worst business. Try some of the smaller dealers like Toro and ask questions before you buy and you should*. get better service.

out of curiosity, I was looking at the PC site and I see three versions of this watch I like, the one you have but with  a 7753, a version with a 7750, but it is much more yellow while yours looks more orange.  Last they have a quartz version.  the two automatics have a fake dial at 3 oclock while the quartz has full function on all dials.  I am usually not a quartz fan, but I do like all dials working.  Does the quartz have all the sub dials in the same place as the gen?

Mine has the 7753. All my Subdials work. Running seconds at 9:00. The Subdial at 3 works just as it should as does the one at six. I used the chrono yesterday. It sure isn't orange! Take a look at the Omega website and compare. My date font is a little weak, but other than that pretty close.

That was a QC pic.

Huh, good to know, I was looking on PC site and there's does have a fake dial at the 3 oclock position according to the site.  That was the only reason I was even contemplating going with a quartz model.  I will have to get mine from PT.  They must get them from different factories as both of them are using 7753 movements
