Yea, like the first 40% you "saved" when you couldn't exchange the watch after wearing it!

I would highly suggest NOT buying from that same dealer again. At least try to seek out another dealer with a good discount AND a better return policy.

At this point, you have already lost more money than the difference would have been buying your watch from a better authorized dealer! Keith Downing can recommend a good authorized Omega dealer that can get you about 35% off.

So I definitely would not repeat that mistake of buying from Mister-No-Returns-If-Worn again!
