Omega Newbie Needs Help!!!

Hi All,

I am about to purchase my first Omega and would appreciate some comments on my questions below:-

I have narrowed my choice down to the following:-

Speedmaster Broad Arrow:-

Steel on Leather strap Ref. 3851.20.12 Dial: White
Steel on Steel Dial: White Ref. 3551.20.00

1. Are there any similar models I should consider (White Dial / Moon phase / blue hands) that are not listed on Omega.ch?

2. I am buying in the UK, can anybody recommend a good Omega dealer in the West Midlands / Shropshire, what sort of discount should I look for?

3. How do I get a Display Back in the UK, will the dealer sell me one?

4. Any other watch suggestions would be gratefully received I have a budget of £3K (It took a long while to save this money so I want the best and most attractive watch I can find)

Any pics or owners opinions would be great.

My -email is : colinjohnwalker@aol.com

Thanks for your help.

Colin
