A very positive story about Omega Service Center
After deciding to take my two month old 39.2mm Railmaster off the market and keep it, I began trying to take some real close up photos of it without getting all the reflection off the domed sapphire crystal. Well, while doing so this past Thursday, I noticed something on the right side of the minute hand. I took it out in direct sunlight to get a better look and got a pinpoint reflection off of the something. I then got my 10x loupe and sure enough there was some kind of debris or gunk on the right hand side of the hand (I think it was Luminova left on the side of the hand when they finished it off at the factory). I had never noticed it until then, but I knew that knowing that it's there was going to bug me.I live about 45 minutes away from the Omega Service Center in Los Angeles, but I had read so many negative things about Omega Service Centers on this forum (long waits, etc.) I was hesitant to take it in. However, I have two other Omegas plus my Rolex to wear so I figured I co

57261a versus Rolex Daytona Platinum
While I am in agreement with the community that the 57261a is a VERY different watch to the Rolex Daytona Platinum Anniversary Model, I am interested in how others might think about this purchase decision.It starts with the metal... I get it. Weight, brand, etc...However, given the warm conditions (literally year around) where I live in Southern California, I think I need a compliment to my 59601a, RG Daytona, GMT II YG/ stainless, among others that have a bracelet.Please note: I will NOT OVER PAY for a 5711. Please do not suggest that reference. My purchase has nothing to do with price.I have a number of other watches so this out reach is more about making a decision on a new purchase between the two references mentioned above that I will actually wear daily among others in some sort of rotation given the temperature where I live during the day.I tend to get bored with daily wear watches so I take into consideration their resale value. The 5726 would be about 31% back and the Dayt

No love for the 5235?
I'm in the process of determining which reference will be my first PP complication. I love the 5131, but it's impossible to get. Im on the waitlist, but have no reasonable expectations that I'll ever get the lucky call. I've seen all the common AC references (5205, 5396, 5160, 5146), and while I like them, there is something about each one of them that doesn't suit me. I've seen pictures of the AC regulator online and it looks so cool. But, it is also near impossible to see in the flesh without placing an order. I've also seen little talk on TRF about it and I've only seen one incoming thread. So, help me understand what I'm missing. I don't want to get all excited about the 5235 only to realize there is something glaringly wrong with it. Any feedback would be helpful from anyone and particularly those that have seen it in the flesh. image.jpg
