Omega Country Code 33400
I recently purchased a used titanium blue face Omega Seamaster 2232.80.00 that came with the original boxes, instruction manual & the 3 cards: chronometer, pictograms, & international warranty. I was told the watch was purchased about 3 years ago as NOS. On the warranty card, the model & serial # were printed but the date spot was blank as was the dealer info box. Below the date box, anyone know which country code 33400 correlates to? I've tried searching but to no avail.I know 2011 refers to the US & 2025 refers to Canada.Also does anyone know when this particular model was discontinued?

Brand new Patek Aquanaut bezel defect
Dear all, I have come to realize that my 2 week old brand new 5164R has 2 defects on the bezel. One at 7 o'clock and one at 11 o'clock. The angle between the brushed plateau and the 45 degreed angle joining the satined polished facade seems to have been over polished by the watchmaker. I can't seem to take proper pictures to show but in bright light, you can see the deformation. I purchased it at a German official Patek retailer not far from Dusseldorf, it was a sealed piece and was opened before my eyes. I didn't realize this until a few days ago, when the light shining at those 2 spots caught my attention and upon examining with a loupe, I confirm the 2 overpolished, or rather looks like dented corners at 7 and 11 positions. The trouble spots are not big but they sure are defects. I cannot believe it passed Patek's quality control department.Now I am left questioning what to do about it.Anyone had similar experiences?Thank youSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You won't see these in the window very often
How often are these available in the case… at the same timewas walking around in the diamond district nyc today and felt compelled to share this.

Daytona Rivet bracelet
I was given a Rivet bracelet by someone who found it in a drawer. They are NOT watch people or collectors. It had no end links and it had one link near the clasp that was missing a rivet. I fixed it up, bought end links, They were not the correct ones but still fit. I would like to know if there is any way to tell if this is a genuine bracelet or a replica . I have pictures here to help.Please E-mail me at :temptones1verizon.net if you have any info.The link at the lug is labeled 7635 and the end link, though not gen says 455.The clasp saysRegistered Swiss Made DE 6 and STEELINOX 93250 see pix again...Can anyone tell me anything about this bracelet? The clasp is very nicely made.
