Re: Seamaster America's Cup Chrono: corrections

Hi Mark & Keith

I've recently purchased an America's Cup Racing (the so-called non-America´s Cup). The reference number for this item is 2569.52.00 (and not 2569.50.00 as in the Omega web-site catalogue), with calibre 3602 (which I don't know if it is like 33xx series). Certainly, the legend "America's Cup" was removed from the dial in later versions (mine, for example), and the classical "300m/1000ft" appeared. And yes, it has been discontinued by Omega. Despite of that, there are dealers (at least in Spain) with items in their shelves...I wonder how long it will take to "remove" them from their present locations if attention is paid to the price of this fine watch.
Regards:

Antonio
