FOIS has arrived!
FedEx delivered on time. Lots of photos have been posted with lots of info. I hope to impart something different.First, here's the commemorative box:Then opened with plastic in place:And the commemorative plate:The case back:Now some points of interest (at least to me) . . .Mine is numbered 16## which makes me wonder if Omega started with 0001. Somehow I doubt that 1600+ have been produced. More importantly, I put my micrometer to the FOIS and found that the diameter of the caseback and bezel are the same as the standard Speedy Pro. The sapphire halo makes it difficult to accurately measure the diameter of the dial but the measurements from the outside end of the 9:00 marker to the outside end of the 3:00 marker appear to be the same. That makes me think the dial of FOIS would fit the standard Speedy Pro.And lastly, I want to thank my longtime FD for his persistence. He came through again as usual.

Sent in my 328 for repair
Hello. I sent my 328 in for repair, the minute and hour hands were not lining up correctly. I thought the hour hand jumped a tooth in the running train, but I am not certain. I just got info today that the watch had been sent to Panerai for a partial service and would take 4-6 weeks. I wanted to ask those of you that had dealt with servicing your Pams is the turn-around time fairly quick? Thanks in advance!

Birthday Buy?
I'm turning 21 soon in approximately 10 days. Can not decide if I want to buy a YG day date or not. I love the watch and will definitely buy it on at a later date if not now. On a daily basis, i sport a Tag Heuer Aquaracer and a Rolex Submariner and occasionally my fathers AP Royal Oak 18k. All prices mentioned below are in CAD.I pretty much have 5 questions.- How much should I pay for a used daydate yg? My budget is under 15k for which i have seen many watches but should i buy one for less or should i buy one for 15k. - Should i pay more for box and papers or should i get one without? The guy i will be buying from is a trusted dealer and friend in Toronto. The price for the one with papers is 17500- The normal wrist size doesn't seem to fit me, so how much should i pay for an extra link? Inherently how much do they cost??-Bark or no bark? I seem to like to bark as well as the non bark, without any information on bark i would have to buy the non bark. Is there anything special about ba
