Re: Just Purchased an Omega 2225.80 - What to do..

John,

Really appreciate your informative feedback. I'll get with the Jewler today and follow-up to let the group in on how it went. I'm sure it will go fine as they are a reputable retailer.

Thanks again,

Matt

: Correct. You should have also received a white
: outer box, red leather inner box, red
: paperback instruction manual, and a
: yellowish/beige colored price "hang
: tag" (unless the dealer cut it off and
: threw it away). If any links were removed,
: you should have one pin and two small tubes
: for each link that was removed.

: DO NOT order the COSC certificate until you
: have a properly filled out warranty card,
: which you'll need to get from the AD. You'll
: need to send Omega a digital picture of the
: properly filled out card to
: aftersales@omega.ch

: Yes, "Watch No" refers to the serial
: number. If it doesn't match the 8 digit
: number on the back of the watch, then the AD
: needs to get you the right cards. Here's
: what you should see on all 3 cards:
: INTERNATIONAL WARRANTY
: Ref: 22258000
: Watch No: correct 8 digit serial number
: Date
: AD's name stamped or written in ink

: PICTOGRAMS
: Ref: 22258000
: Calibre No: 1164

: CHRONOMETER CERTIFICATE
: Ref: 22258000
: Watch No: correct 8 digit serial number

: Demand, don't ask, for the proper cards. As an
: AD, they are required by Omega to provide
: you with the proper documentation for your
: watch. Other than the COSC certificate,
: there's nothing else you can order to keep
: with your watch. Once you have the COSC
: certificate and the proper cards, you'll
: have everything you should.
