Speedmaster apollo soyuz 311.30.42.30.99.001
Hi all, So I signed up here determined to find out more about Rolex watches and eventually to get me one. But a couple of weeks ago I discovered this Apollo SOYUZ watch - and I think instead of Rolex I now want to buy me one of those.Would any owners like to share their findings in regards to this watch - issues or otherwise?Regards, -V

New AD - Central NJ
For the TRFers in central NJ, a new Omega AD opened in Menlo Park Mall - Safa Jewelers. The guys there are really nice and they have pretty big selection. I think they just received their first shipment so it's a pretty neat to see everything in two cases. They happily let me try on any piece I wanted from the DSTOM to the RG Tresor. I'm not one promote ADs but these guys seem really down to earth and would welcome any of WISs. They were even gracious enough to give me an Omega hat!If you're in the area, I definitely recommend checking them out.

Has anybody ever done it? Are the pins compatible? If so....pics?Cheers!

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 !!
