: sitting around for a couple of years?????
The only way to be sure is to send the serial number to Omega and have them look up the production date.
: Does this mean i got the bad movement? I
It is not BAD. I have a DeVille with the 1109 and it is fine. There was only a rare, obscure problem where some 1109's would not maintian their entire 44 hour power reserve. Omega upgraded the design to eliminate this rare occurance.
: by the way, which movement is better? Thanks.
They are almost completely identical. The 1120 is only a MINOR REVISION to the 1109.
Relax, there is no cause to worry. Just have Omega look up the serial number and make sure your watch is not unduly old. If it is, take it back and ask the dealer to order you a 'fresh' one straight from Omega--or discount the price more based on having sold you "new old stock" merchandise (use that specific term).
