HAs anyone else encountered this? What did you do to fix you situation? What do you think I could do to fix mine? In my attachments you can see the gap. If I

Anybody check the Omega website lately?
There is a woman who either is Nicole Kidman or her clone on the front page. That's no big deal, but when you mouse over her picture she turns slowly and stares at you, like a statute that moved....scared the hell out of me!!

Considering a raidomir 655
Any thoughts or comments, is it possible to find a pre-own?
