This case sounds like an after Warranty servicing.

Just FYI

All my watches (several brands) were purchased from an one authorized dealer in NY. They also have their own jewelers on site and regulate all watches in 5 positions over several days. Because of a backlog, the servicing can take a least a few weeks, especially if any replacement
parts are needed. The general service cost is around $200 for most models of most brands they carry.

My last watch to be serviced by them, a Fortis diver, came back looking like new and better regulated than when I sent it in. They will be servicing my SMP when its time is due, not the Swatch Group's PA location.

: Mainly because if you need an in-warranty
: repair, those have to be handled by an Omega
: authorized repair facility.

: Certainly once your watch is out from under the
: factory warranty, then you should seek a
: local qualified watchmaker to do the work!
