New Speedy Pro LTD Ed 30th Ann!

I'm the proud owner of a brand new Speedmaster Pro Limited Edition moonwatch. I thought I would share some comments with y'all:

First off, I ordered the watch from SKW, who was both prompt and a pleasure to do business with. I would recommend contacting them first via e-mail then fax. But I did not have any problems whatsoever dealing with them.

Second, I sized the bracelet myself. I have a "above average" mechanical ability, yet found it very challenging to size. It came out OK, and in part because I have sized other Omega bracelets in the past. Nevertheless, I can't agree more with the advice of others here that you seek a professional jeweler to get your bracelet sized.

Third, the watch is extremely cool. The box blew me away-- clearly one of the nicest I've seen and the best Omega box I've every seen.

One down note is that I did not get the Moonwatch book from SKW. And so this leads to a question-- is Omega still supplying the book free of charge to Omega enthusiasts, or have then stopped doing so?

Thanks & Cheers,

Tom
