Well, after thinking about getting a new watch for some time now, finally pulled the trigger yesterday. Ordered a black dial Omega Seamaster GMT. The dealer I went to didn't have it in stock so it'll be here tomorrow/friday.
Decided to go with an Authorised Dealer instead of an online place for a few reasons. Firstly, some online places actually sell watches with serial numbers removed. Somehow a butchered watch didn't appeal. Secondly, Omega will not honor any kind of warranty with watches bought online. If, heaven forbid, there's a problem with the watch, I don't like the idea of sending the watch back to lovelywatchesdotcom (obviously a fictitious name!!) where they'll give the watch to some bloke who knows a bit and will have a go at fixing it... Lastly, the Dealer actually gave me a very good discount, not far off what the online places are offering.
Anyway, just wanted to share my excitement at getting my first up-there luxury watch !
