Seamaster Purchase - ATTN Keith Downing

Hello Keith,

It sounds like you have made many people on this forum very happy, so I thought I'd ask you for a reference to someone who will give me the best deal on a new watch (with serial numbers and a full warranty). I am looking at purchasing a 2541.80.00 as a spare for my 2531.80.00 (for when I send it in for service to Omega, etc.). I want the quartz movement since this watch will only be a spare and won't be worn often. I assume I can take the watch to any Omega dealer for battery replacement and bracelet sizing?

I am also considering a 2254.50.00. Even though it is not the "Bond watch" I do like its looks.

I bought my 2531.80.00 from an authorized dealer but I think I paid too much, even with the 25% discount. I just want to make sure that Omega will service any watch I buy over the net. I don't want it to break and then not be able to get it properly repaired. Thanks for your help.

-John
