Omega SMP - First Service after 16 years
Got a recommendation for an Omega UK service centre off a member of another forum I frequentMy trusty Omega SMP started to run 5 min's fast every few days so after 16 years - it was time for its first serviceThe cost of the service was 25% less than I was quoted from 2 high street ADs plus the recomendation from somebody who had used before - was good newsI put it in for a movement only service - no polishing\ no cosmetic refinish. Reason being if I wanted a new looking smp - why not buy a new one. All the scratches over 16 years (& there's not that many too be honest) all mean something & add up to what the watch means to me\ been with me over the yearsAnyway - took about 5/ 6 weeks & arrived back last Thursday.Well packaged on returnOmega service pouch inside the hard plasticj boxmore bubble wrap inside the pouchFinally ..........Should have wiped the dust from the watch before the final pic. No marks on the glass - just dustNot had off my wrist since !!

I bought this original print for cheap off Ebay. Thought I'd share. Did you know the Speedy was selling for $185 retail in those days?!

Patek Philippe Quartz
My wife saw a watch at our local AD - the Patek Philippe 4920. Problem is, it's a quartz - and a lot of money. Is a quartz ever worth a lot of money? Your opinions, please.
