Visit to the Omega boutique
My wife and I were in Cherry Creek in Denver and I had to stop by the Omega boutique because I hadn't tried on the Speedmaster and I've been wanting one for a while. While we were there, we heard some Omega history and checked out some other pieces. Towards the end of our visit which was about an hour or so later the gentleman hands me a paper to fill out for info and events. While I am writing I notice that the pen has a nice feel and as I like pens I look check it out and notice that it's an Omega pen. I has seen different brand pens like AP (one of my favorites) and Rolex along with others but never an Omega one. While I am handing him the info and pen I compliment his pen and he asks me to wait only to return with the same pen in a box along with a pen for my wife. A very kind gesture indeed, not to mention my wife said that I should come back and purchase a piece with him. The fact that he brought a pen out for her definitely swayed her. I didn't take any wrist shots so I apologiz
I could not resist
Just strolling thru the mall with my lady. Of course, I go into Tourneau just to see what's there. I ask why the omega section is dwindling. Apparently, they are phasing omega out. Everything was 20% off. In my past experience, very Lorre discounting happening there. Anyway, I try on the 9300 ti speedmaster, blue on blue. I knew at they moment I wasn't leaving without it. I did some searches. With the 20%, the price was very competitive. I was shocked. But it had to be done. I promised myself no big purchases so I'll have to flip something, but no regrets. Pics don't do this beauty any justice.

dont know if post is getting thru w/pics
Hello everyone- I am delighted to find such an informative forum!I have a dilemma, My husband bought a Rolex watch in 1988 for $8,000. The jewelry store where it was purchased provided an Insurance Appraisal which included a retail value of $15,500. When I went to a very reputable dealer yesterday, the gentleman told me that the appraisal makes no mention of the serial number and the model number had a typo 180388 s/b 18038. Plus upon closer inspection the serial number inside the watch had been scratched off and that I would be unable to sell it. I am absolutely sick over this. The original Jewelry store is still in business (after 35 years in the same town) Does anyone have an opinion on how I can approach this with them? Do you think that they will be interested in making this right? Thank you!
