Re: Omega Speedmaster warranty
In Response To: Re: Omega Speedmaster warranty ()

: Don't know who you talked to in Sweden... OMEGA
: headquarters is in Switzerland.

: The whole watch, bracelet and clasp should be
: covered for manufacturing defects. But none
: of it is covered for damage you cause or for
: normal wear.

: Have you had a problem with the bracelet?

Sorry, I meant Switzerland.

No, I haven't had a problem with the bracelet or clasp, however when I purchased the watch from an authorized dealer, they tried selling me an extended warranty and specifically said that Omega would only cover the movement and that the extended warranty would cover everything, including the bracelet and clasp (Lancaster said the same). I'm trying to determine if the extended warranty at $140.00 USD is worth it. After reading your response and hearing from Omega, it seems that it just overlaps Omega's warranty.
