I have no experience of a UK dealer but ...

: Hello,

: I've decided to take the plunge with a Black
: Seamaster (2254.50). I had figured a Bond
: (2531.80) would be what I'd buy ( I know a
: few people with the Bond), but having read
: lots of posts on this forum and John B.
: Holbrook, II's great reviews of the Black
: SMP (loved the submariner v the SMP
: review..fantastic) that I've decided upon
: the 2254.50.

OK


: I've got four AD's in Chester where I live, so
: lot's of choice but, is there a better
: alternative than the local AD's here in the
: UK?

I think it depends on what "better" means.

Cheaper - possibly
Closer - I doubt it


: But I want the warranty and happy to build a
: relationship with an AD over the coming
: years!

Understood.

I have E-mailed you a link to a UK Omega dealer, whos pricing seems at least to be "VERY" interesting. They are Official Omegas dealers.

As I said in the title, I have no personal experience of them, but once read a post from someone stating that they had a very positive experince there.

I suggest it only as an alternative.


: Thanks in advance!

: Cheshire Dad.

You're welcome.
