: I recently purchased two new mid-size Omega
: Seamaster watches (2252.50 and 2561.80) from
: a very reputable (I am certain of their
: authenticity)unauthorized dealer for 40% and
: 45% discounts respectively. Given that the
: warranty is only a small percentage of ones
: ownership, I cannot see the downside of
: loosing the manufacturer's warranty given
: this short duration (and the unauthrized
: dealer's self-warranty of 3 years)as once
: this time period has expired I am at the
: same point as purchasing from an
: "authorized" dealer with money
: left in my pocket. I still have 12 days to
: return my purchases for a full refund if
: there is a good reason to do so. Please tell
: me of any fallacy in my reasoning. Thank you
: for your time.

Here's one for you--if the serial numbers are removed than Omega will never service it regardless whether its under warranty or not.
