In Response To: Re: Thanks Derek, also also... ()

...Thank You so much for your responses!!! I really appreciate recieving your insight and hearing stories of your own experiences!

I called up the store where I bought my watch and they said the watch maker would take a look at it but that I could either replace it or exchange it at my discretion. I then talked with the purchasing agent for the store and he said the same but added if I wanted it adjusted through Omega he would contact them directly and overnight it to them. He figured it would take aprox. 2 weeks. I am leaning toward this option rather than taking another new watch simply bkz this one is only off by +2 seconds (which Derek as you said is "GREAT")and who knows what I might end up with. Also, as maybe odd as it sounds, the last 4 digits of the serial number = my birthday(month and day)...kind of neat I thought.

My bezel is off just slightly at the 12 o'clock position but this is not a major thing and sounds rather common.

Sound like a good plan?

Thanks again and Glenn keep us posted on your progress!

All the Best-
Jeff
