Recently had my 8500 PO serviced by STS - cheaper than Omega though the turnaround time was still quite lengthy.

I've used Duncan at Genesis previously too and his work and communications are...

Years ago, when the dealers had stock you could handle I tried a black dial 216570 as I'd always admired the 1655. I couldn't put a finger on it, but something about it just wasn't quite right and I...

Wonderful post - always interesting to see the products from some " non mainstream" brands.

Appreciate you taking the time to post the report.

Perhaps taking a digital photograph and zooming in will enable you to read the numbers?

The numbers are on the underside of the clasp.

A quick Google image search will give you an idea of where to look. I would post a picture myself but my watch is away being serviced.

Your notes are indeed correct - 1589/858

I have used both in the past (albeit for a c861) and in my opinion you won't go wrong with either.

I may be wrong, but perhaps if the watch needs any case or bracelet refinishing work, STS may...

I'm curious about the colour too - it is difficult to tell from the photos.

An interesting post Haywood (as ever). Did you simply get lucky or did Rolex know you wouldn't accept anything less?...

A generous gesture for such a worthwhile cause - count me in for £20.

I think the Seiko's are hard to beat for the money and would seem to meet your needs.

My son has an old Seiko of mine however I would urge you to consider the benefit of a "grab and go" quartz...

Thanks for the posts - trying to find something a little more local if possible (needle and haystack I know :smug: ).

Still if anyone is out shopping over the weekend and happens to spot one...

Hello all,

I'm after some help/advice on behalf of someone I know who is trying to track down an Omega Planet Ocean model 232.30.46.21.01.003 (45mm, black bezel, orange numbers on bracelet).
It...

Another option would be to buy the SDR bezel and simply swap them yourself :)

3 (or possibly 4) little grub screws secure the bezels from memory.

Very eloquently put!

Great story and well done all.

I'm surprised how much I like that!
It looks so much better than the pictures on the Rolex web-site too.

Enjoy it!

Like a few of the others I find I have to go up half a size in NB.

Stories like this make us stop and reflect for a moment to consider how forunate most of us are; particularly at this busy time of year when we can so easily find ourselves "worrying" over things,...

Thanks again guys.

After the comments I went and dug out my receipt and it seems I bought this watch a year later than I thought (forgive me, a lot of watches have come and gone since!)!

The...

Thank you all for the input; the wealth of knowledge/experience on the forum never ceases to amaze. I appreciate you all taking the time to respond.

Interesting facts about the different...

Hello all,
I'm after a spot of advice regarding my 9 year old Seamaster quartz please?
I picked the watch up yesterday only to find that it had stopped running. Immediately I just assumed the...

The original MK2 is a lovely watch and I do think the re-issue is one of Omega's better efforts of recent years. If I didn't already own a vintage I would certainly consider buying new.

I think...

Yes - I seem to recall reading that thread and I think that if Joppers hadn't posted pictures of the results STS achieved then I may have been far more wary!

Still - Unfortunately someone has to...

When I first began to become interested in watches and started lurking on this very forum one of the first watches I saw which really caught my eye was a racing dial Speedmaster Mk2. I hastily...

That certainly hasn't been my experience: maybe give them a call?

Hi there,

I went through a similar decision with my Mk2 but after seeing a fellow forum member post pictures of his watch with a new dial and hands my decision was made.

Whatever you decide I...
