Keith, as an addendum to my last reponse I would like to say that having shopped the net for prices on my new Seamaster Pro and finding really good prices, I still never purchased on the net. As stated before, their is that really lousy feeling you get from shelling out that kind of money for something you have never actually looked at. I, however, found a price that was only $50 (US) above the average internet price from a 25 year authorized Omega dealer (Omega Center, Bangkok, Thailand). I picked it up so fast my wife thought I had lost my mind. The factory warranty and chronometer ratings are there and I could not be happier. As happy as I know a lot of people are with their internet purchases, I will likely never purchase a watch online. I'm simply to shakey about that.
