I was looking for a decent watch as a reward to myself for (finally!) paying off my student loans.
I was thinking a rolex, omega or tag.
After looking around a bit, most prices seem about the same so went to goldsmiths. Tried on a couple of rolexs – which just seemed to flash for me, didn’t really like the look of any of the tags, so decided on an omega seamaster. The seamaster I got is a bit different, it’s got blue hands, rather than steel and IMHO its a good looking understated watch.
It turned out that the only one they had left didn’t have the guarantee in the box, omega had apparently shipped them without the paperwork – having umm’d and arr’d about getting the watch, I wanted it there and then, so paid up, and was told it’d be about a month before they’d get the guarantee sent though – 2 months later and still no sign – hence this site.
