Re: globe mark on back

In Response To: Re: globe mark on back ()

Are you sure...The genneral consensus on the boards is that this was not the same as the star used to show a different process...but is a attempt to fight fakes

: You have nothing to worry about.

: The globe is simply a "flag" for
: Omega that tells them that this watch was
: produced using a new or slightly different
: process. Omega will NOT tell anyone what
: that is.

: If the watch comes back to them for repair,
: they can gather data on the efficacy of the
: new process. This kind of thing is done in
: many industries all the time and is not an
: indication of anything to worry about.

: The red "dot" is an indication that
: the watch has not been opened...anytime
: recently. Mine wore off in a few months.
