World of Watches - SN Removed?? *PIC*

I purchased an Omega Seamaster Professional Chronometer 300M (2254.50) from World of Watches a few months back. Unfortunately, I was unaware of this site and just read that World of Watches has been known to remove Serial Numbers. I looked where the Chronocentric says to look for the SN and I dont see one. I can only assume that they DID remove the SN.

My question, is how this affects the value of my watch and is there any chance that it is a fake? It came in what looks like an official Omega box (large, white) with a very nice leather bound manual. The watch looks and feels real but I am no expert.

Any thoughts on what I should do? Has anyone here experienced this? Links to more reading would be nice too.

I have included a few pics of the watch but they are not great. I can email the originals to anyone interested in zooming in a little more.

Thanks,

Ross
