Need help
Hey guys I'm thinking of upgrading to the AP ROO 26400SO Or the 26401 in rose gold old dial. I'm a one watch guy and I assume the RG44 Would be hard to wear as a daily.

Look for AD - NY
Hi all,I'm from Brazil and i'm relishing the chance that my family are going to US next month to buy my first fine watch. After some research, i found that buying on of these online(Amazon,jomashop) would private me of having the international warranty of an omega watch... For someone living outside US like me, its a very important thing.. So here are my questions:1- Where can i find a good AD to buy my watch in new york? Someone offering a good service with good discounts.2- Whats the difference between buying a omega online, on the stores cited above, or through an AD? The watch would be a Seamaster...Thanks everyone =)
