Some interesting info!!

Well, my dealings with Omega today were MUCH more pleasant, as well as informative. Here's the skinny:

First off, my original order yesterday was supposed to be blocked, pending what I learned today. Well, it wasn't, and the order was shipped this morning! Starting to feel the wave of frustration coming over me, I proceeded to ask Carla about the confusing part numbers for the blue ridged rubber strap No's 97998082021 vs. 9798- . After a little searching, she discovered a note in her system that said the 9799- REPLACES 9798- which explains why 9798- is on backorder. They are actually the same strap.

My order should arrive on Thursday. I will post my findings with the CORRECT part number once and for all! In the meantime, hold tight.
