Omega Wants You! Pays George Clooney To Look Goofy For The Cause
What times we live in. Who would have ever thought to see a celebrity endorse a watch company's recruiting efforts. Sure we are all used to celebrities modeling watches, even attending watch public relations events. I even wrote about watch companies like Audemars Piguet making watches for US presidents, who then plug the brand (for charity).Well new ground has been broken, and I would pay good money to learn the buttering up process involved in getting George Clooney to adorn a watch maker's monocle (called a loupe) and lab coat for this photo shoot. Good thing Clooney looks perplexed in this shot, because while I am sure he owns a few Omega watches, he has never had any experience making them or working on them. Imagine the cajoling required to get him to wear this outfit. "Great shots of the De Ville Mr. Clooney, now put this on your face like soand wear this coat. Lets try it again. Aren't WE looking technical Mr. Clooney?"The who purpose of this advertisement is to get people exci

Oris website questions
The Oris website has a members area and I registered today. After logging in I find it is possible to extend the warranty to 3 years by registering my new watch However, it appears I am missing a piece of software to use the website correctly. For example, when I click on the link for serial number to look at an example, the main page fades as if some information will appear, but nothing appears. Does anyone know how to correct this?Thanks, EJ

Value Questions - Navitimer
I'm actively shopping for my first Breitling. I currently wear an Omega Seamaster Professional as an everyday watch.I found one I like; a 2 tone Navimeter II, with a steel grey face and white sub-dials at 6, 9 and 12, so I guess it's a little older ? The guy at the shop thought maybe 4-6 years old and that was all he offered. It also has gold Arabic numbers, gold bezel and gold hands.OK, my questions would be are rarer color dials worth any more than the blue, black and white you see more often? Does the steel bracelet add value over leather or an exotic band? Is 2 tone worth more than all stainless? It appears roman and Arabic numbers are less common, any value there?The watch is perfect, looks brand new, I think it's a good deal. Maybe not great. As a newbie it's hard for me to compare values on different watches I have seen over the last 30 days. I'll have to say this is the most striking and different watch I have seen from the dozens I have looked at in Vegas and here in Sco

I need two more
For a collection that just might consist of only Omega watches...I need two more. One is obviously a classic moonwatch speedy. What is the other?I'm on the fence and would enjoy some of your thoughts. Maybe something I haven't yet thought about. If the pic sucks...left to right...DD AT, 9300 Moonphase, classic!!!, Globemaster
