Omega to be Official Olympic Timekeeper Through 2020
Omega has signed an agreement with the IOC to be the official timekeeper for the Olympic Games through 2020. The signing ceremony and announcement took place at the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland.

Advice on how to deal with this service story
Nov 15/17 took my 36mm datejust in to an ex AD to have it sent off to Rolex for service. Dec 16, got a call from the ( ex dealer) that Rolex service center had received the watch and decided a dial and crown service were needed. I OK'd the repairs. 5 weeks Jan 25, later the ex dealer called to say that Rolex required payment to send the watch back. Total $1950 and the watch would be shipped back to them in two days as Rolex sends everything 2nd day. Payment was made on Jan 25, still no watch as of Feb1. Called ex dealer and got this response: Rolex serviced the watch and it should be back Feb 7th. WTF!This little journey has stopped my interest in a Daytona, or Rolex period. Any opinions as to how much is Rolex and how much the ex dealer in this scenario? First time I have ever had a problem with servicing....
