New SMP

Hey guys, finally got my Omega! You wouldn't believe what I've gone through to get it. First, I bought a used one off eBay from someone in England. Turned out to be a fake, sent the watch back, never got my moner back. $650.00 down the drain. Bought another used one off eBay from a guy in Miami for $675 (I know, I'm a hard leaner, but I really can't afford a new one). This one turned out to have a broken "quick-set" mechanism, so I got it fixed for $95.00. I was gonna have the jeweler buff/polish it for me for another $95.00, but he'd have to keep it another week, and he'd already had it for 4 weeks, so I decided to pick the watch up, and take it back for the polishing some other time. In spite of all the trouble I've had to get one, I consider it WELL worth it, as I've wanted one for years! I got the 2062.50.00 model, black dial/bezel, mid-size, quartz. (I know the autos are more unique and sophisticated, but I like to have the best accuracy possible). I've had a Krieger for 4 years now, a quartz model that's actually certified "chronometer," and it only loses about 3 seconds every 6 months! Hopefully, my Omega can come close to that!
