Dealer Cost???
I've been around here for a bit but I've not seen this question asked:Anyone know what the AD cost is for an Omega? Maybe ballpark?The reason I asked is before I try "our" AD I want to check with my local AD (there's only one) and I want to have an idea if they are feeding me a line when I make my offer. I have heard it before "...well if you can get it for that then buy it, because its below our cost!"

Hands Across The Water .
.....or in other words,Trading OverseasWell GuysHow many of you have done this?I've come close on two occasions only to be narrowly outbid. I know some members here and elsewhere have bought from overseas. I guess that assuming all precautions were in place, buying from a trusted source who was based abroad would be no more different to closing a deal with someone on the other side of town. Well that isn't all perhaps. Depending on where you are, import tax could be a killer..:eek:Have you ever tried selling and indeed shipping overseas?I tried swapping once but both parties eventually realized that unless you were well-versed in this practice, it is really no small logistical feat. Shipping within one's own borders is a piece of cake but across boundaries and oceans is another matter. Not all carriers would be happy about shipping something like a watch or indeed other pieces of jewelry. USPS would do it under their Global Priority service. However if you were in England the privileg

AP Diver help please!!
Hi guys, this is my first post on this forum, I have been lurking for a few months now and this looks like a very friendly place, very active with a wealth of information and pictures designed to tempt and push any would be owner in the right direction!! I know it seems daft, but I promised myself I would not post here until I was an actual AP owner, it was almost like motivation to speed up my purchase!! That said, I can not hold back any more, as I need some info that will effect my purchase. The Diver is the one I have not been able to get off my mind thanks to you guys and your amazing pics, your killing me!! One more month and I'm good to go, ready to buy. Sorry for the long winded intro, my question is - how long is the standard Diver strap including the watch? Do you think it would it fit my 8 wrist with both strap loops in use? If not I would buy the XL strap at the same time so I don't have to wait to wear it. I read a review somewhere that said the standard strap is fairly

Speed master moon watch , Hesalite of the Sapphire Sandwich?
I'm in the market for an Omega Speedmaster moon watch . I would really value your opinion on whether to go with the original style Hesalite crystal or with the newer style exhibition caseback ?

Planet Ocean GMT (Dial Choices)
I'm a big fan of this watch personally, but I know some are not. Some of the contention is related to the color scheme (blue w/ orange), others just have an issue with the GMT bezel because it's not a true dive watch. As you know, the only dial option now is the Good Planet blue dial w/ orange accents on the bezel, however the other dial choices below will be available soon. Just curious what everyone's thoughts are on the other dial choices...1) Black w/ Orange Number 2) Blue w/ Orange (Good Planet - Available Now) 3) Black w/ SS Numbers 4) Orange Misc Blue/Orange Bezel Pics (Awesome Watch - IMO):
