: get you a new one and this time it will be
: sealed with cards and all. whatever makes
: you happy! LOL! then he opened the omega

: extra rubber strap. what do you think!
: 2900.51.82, 2900.50.81 or 2908.50.82 thanks
: guys!
I'm REALLY glad they took care of you, even though it took quite a bit of prodding on your part. As for buying the Planet Ocean and getting the free strap, you're saving about $200 by getting the strap for free. If you aren't getting any discount on the watch itself (or only a very small one such as 10-20%), then it may be better to use the forum's favorite AD. I'll send you his contact information if you'd like. Just send me an e-mail at the address above.
