In Response To: Possible Omega Seamaster fake? *PIC* ()

: I am looking to purchase a Omega Seamaster (Midsize) and I shopping
: on Amazon.com when I came across this watch

: What troubled me is that the bracelet does not resemble the
: bracelet on Omegas official website or at least it is not a
: option there. Could this be a fake?

This is a stock Omega photo and not a picture of the actual watch you will be receiving. My guess is that this is an option from Omega as the now discontinued Seamasters used to be issued with that particular bracelet, known as the "speedy" style. I don't see a reference for it on the website either but it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. Amazon is a grey market dealer and not authorized by Omega. The bracelet may very well have been switched.

If you are in the states and would prefer to deal with an Authorized dealer, shoot me an email and ill send you a couple references. They will give you a great price and you can be sure the watch will be 100% legit.
