: ways to purchase an Omega,

So what. If you bought a bum product, you are still screwed for the money you spent. That's why it is dangerous to buy on eBay.

: but I am confident it is not counterfit

Oh? Based on what. Can you post a photo? We can help make sure it is the real thing.

Your only real choices are to try to get all or part of your money back from the seller *or* go ahead and send it in to OMEGA to have them determine the problem and repair cost.
