Re: Omega 1040 service
In Response To: Re: Omega 1040 service ()

Sam is right, but a warning about Womble Watch Works—the southeastern authorized Omega service center. If Ashley Womble himself works on it (and he prefers to take the obscure vintage pieces) it may very well take months to get back. Anticipate some aggravation if you deal with Womble. I finally got my Omega back after nine months and many, many telephone calls.

: send to Womble Watch Works in Marietta, GA (good work, shorter
