New to the forums
Hello to all. I am new to the forums, but have been lurking around for some time now. I have always wanted an Omega watch since about the age of 15, I am now 27 and feel that I am ready to spend the money on a watch. I was at a local AD the other day, and saw a 3513.50.00 for sale. It is brand new, and the dealer said it retailed for about $2200, and was willing to sell it to me for $1800. Do you guys think this is a good price for this watch, and, if it is, what does an Omega watch come with when you buy it brand new (i.e. box, manual, tag, etc.)? Just want to get a more informed opinion on the watch, and, if I do decide to buy this watch or any other Omega, I want to make sure that my dealer treats me right and does not try to rip me off by holding back on anything. Sorry for the long post, and thanks in advance for the help. Cheers!!

Does anybody have a picture of this watch? I am thinking of buying one, but like to see a non-stock photo. This will be my first Panerai.

Gift From Breitling
I purchased my first Breitling from an AD. Today I got a package from Breitling with a card in it saying " Breitling and your jeweler welcome you to the club of Breitling owners with this pilots cap We eyou enjoy wearing it."In side the box was a really nice Blue pilots cap that has the Breitling wings on the front and on the side it says Breitling and on the back it says Since 1884, It is all in gold stitching and looks really nice with the dark blue hat.This was a surprise and did not know Brietling did this when you made a purchase. Has anyone else received the same thing after a purchase from Breitling?Take careEx
