I can appreciate your OG from 95. But this watch seems way overpriced and ugly. Really don’t like that they collaborated with some obscure fashion brand as well. Am I missing something?

Thanks for the advice. If it was up to me I probably would use a third party movement. My grandfather wants to keep it authentic though.

Try 10 to 16 months service time! Up from 8 months they originally quoted and due to the dial service!

This is my first experience dealing with Omega and very unimpressed!

You're right. Ultimately, we don't have a choice if we want to keep it a genuine Omega. The watch is worth it, especially with the family connection.

I'll keep everyone posted!

Thanks! It's super cool but the braided strap, as different as it is, would probably be the one thing I would change lol

Thanks for sharing! I wish they gave me the option. They're acting like a dodgy mechanic IMO

100%. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any alternatives to getting the watch back in working order with genuine parts and they know it!

It's going to make me think twice before buying a watch with an in-house movement going forward.
