Omega Speedmaster Automatic 3539.50.00 on Amazon?
Hi!I'm new and was hoping that you guys could answer some Omega questions I had.I am looking to purchase my first Omega Watch. I really like the Speedmaster and have looked at several. The Aniversary model, the Professional, and I have seen an Automatic on Amazon.I like the tought of the auto winding movement, if it is reliable, and the face lay out is the same as the Professional which I really like. But I have been unable to find this model listed on Omega's website, which concerns me a little.Also in the retailers I have visited some have had signage cautioning against purchasing Omegas online, and I have heard of Omega refusing to honor the warranty if purchased online or from a non-Authorized dealer.I contacted Amazon with my questions, and they were unable to tell me if they were an Authorized retailer, if the waranty would be void (although they apparently offer there own 3 year warranty), if Omega would work on it on my dime if the warranty were void, or really anything else

26400IO 44mm - Who owns one? Thoughts? Strap Options?
Was never originally a fan of these till I tried one on in person. Not only is it light because of the titanium but it really pops in person. Really a pleasure to wear. Stock images can be deceiving.Keen to know how long you've had yours and if you have other straps and what colours. I'm still a bit undecided on the brownish / greyish strap.(Too few posts to upload a pic sadly).

How many links should I have?
I'm about to buy a preowned white faced blue hand AT big size chronometer 2503.33.00 the seller on another forum is unsure if the watch has all the links. How many should I be looking for on a complete watch and if I need to buy more how much are they?Thanks in advance for any advice
