Just got Speedy Reduced BACK!
Just picked up my Speedy Reduced from Omega Beverly Hills after a $530+tax service. Got a new crystal, new push buttons, new bracelet pins and a new two year warranty. Along the way, the bracelet and watch got a complete overhaul and polish and they actually managed to take out a few nicks on the bezel...Too bad I didn't take any before photos and there is no use for the after as the watch looks essentially new.
