zOwie Omega Discussion Forum

After glancing at several of the Omega Seamasters on Ebay, I noticed a fake going for $435.00. If that person thinks he's buying the real thing, I can't blame people for complaining about their watches on the net. IT's a Fake, that's why it breaks with in a couple of days. Buyer Beware!!!
Thanks

: Don't let one person's excessive and obsessive
: ranting turn you off of Omega or the
: Seamaster.

: That person is upset that his dealer would not
: repair for free and out of warranty a watch
: that they believed had been clearly abused.
: I'd love the hear the dealer's side of the
: story.

: But this fool intentionally makes his wrath at
: that dealer into a vengence crusade to make
: people believe that all Omega watches are
: crap.

: What I believe the real problem is is that that
: guy was under the misconception that
: expensive watches were indestructible. So he
: did not pay attention or take care of his.

: It is important to remember that buying luxury
: watch, like buying a luxury car, gets you a
: more finely crafted product -- but not
: something that is abuse-proof. You should
: take MORE care of a fine watch than you
: would an inexpensive one.

: The one thing I will fault Omega on is that
: they do not provide information with their
: watches to make sure you understand the
: limits of water resistance before you take
: you watch into water. But this info is in
: the zOwie FAQs on this site -- I suggest you
: read up on it.

: In response to this guy's ranting, Ross at
: TimeZone's Omega Forum went on a mission to
: find any real Omega owners that had any
: problems that Omega had not satisfactorially
: fixed. After months of asking, they never
: came up with anything of any significance.

: So trust us. We all own Omega watches here and
: are very happy with them.
