Omega service problem
I dropped my seamaster planet ocean off for service on 6/11. I was told it would take about 6 weeks for service. I called yesterday to check on it and am now being told it won't be done until August 20th. I find this unacceptable. Has anyone else experienced this excessive service time? I know when I had my older seamaster serviced it took about 8 weeks but not close to eleven. Why can't they get it right? Every Rolex I've had serviced has been completed early or on time. Omega needs to get their act together. Just venting.

Would you buy this? Double eagle chrono
Hi guys,I would like to ask what you are thinking about this Omega Constellation Double Eagle Chrono. I am looking for a rubber band watch and just saw this one in a omega shop. Have never considered buying a constellation sporty watch but somehow I like this particular model. It is sporty and elegant at the same time. I am not a big omega expert so would like to know what others are thinking. It costs around EUR 4500. Please tell me your opinion about this Omega chrono.thanks and regards

About to make the Omega jump, Snoopy or Alaska
Does anyone know how many the Snoopy was limited to?I am really looking at getting my first Omega and have narrowed itdown to one of these.I am buying them to wear now to hide in a safe although I will likely keepthe bands new and wear it on leather or even a Nato.....

Seamaster Workhorse.........
My Father bought a Seamaster in the early 60's and wore it for everything. He was an engineer, mechanic, garage tinkerer, and horsman.. After a couple decades of hard use, he gave it to me, and I put another couple of decades of hard use on it as my beater watch. It was the garage, yardwork, fool-around watch until I lost the stem several years back.This is how it looked about 6 months ago: I sent it off with instructions to just give the case, dial, and hands a good cleaning; and overhaul the movement as necessary.This is how it looks today:A new stem, crown, and cleaned up dial and hands:The fresh Omega crystal is a joy to look through:The case has been cleaned up, but no polishing or removal of the already well worn 14k Gold:A new Omega Calf Leather strap and gold buckle:The 560 movement was completely disassembled, worn parts replaced and fresh oil:(file photo)The date change started at about 10:30, and changed completely by 12:15:I think it's earned a rest, at least from heavy
