Watching Watches
Watch spotting is a really silly hobby, but I cannot help it most of the time. Walking around at events with my eyes at wrist level, sometimes I impress myself by spotting watches.

OMEGA Boutique in-store service
Just an FYI: The OMEGA Boutiques are instituting on-site technicians who can pressure test, rate check, and regulate watches in the store. The Beverly Center (Los Angeles) location already has theirs.

I was told that most of the US boutiques will have a technician on staff by early 2015.
