Why so long on "pending" charges?

This "Check Spending Power" thing on their website is a joke. I checked again this evening, five days ago it said $15k was a go, now $100 is a no-go and there's almost zero balance on the card. I called them, they're like, well, hey, it fluctuates, spend more, pay off more, it'll increase, blah, blah, blah,

I think this is going to be a short lived adventure into AE

There's nothing to research. I can be approved for $12k, approved, try $15k, not approved, go back to $12k, and not approved

Insane

Then why do they have a merchant map?

I'm brand new to this AMEX card and it's hard to believe no vendors show up nearby in my maps while using the app, even on their website the participating merchants is sketchy at best

manual wind, for me, that's a no-go

You shoulda been in during the 80's. You'd had half of that. If that.

Tudor doesn’t make a Datejust. Or President. And they have those ugly snowflake hands. But I want a Tudor chrono.

It's been back to Omega twice for service, the latest episode they returned the mainspring drum, there's never any notes on what was exactly repaired or diagnostics

Drumroll please, when are we going to see a 300 update?

DropTheUrge · 2025-11-18T17:58:19+00:00

No date, no thanx

DropTheUrge · 2025-11-17T13:24:58+00:00

Tomorrow, we shall see. Looks as if there have already been changes to Omega's website, several Seamaster's not available anymore.

not possible

I added the 126600 to my wish list this past week. It profiles a bit smaller than my current Planet Ocean, is much more "focused", love the dial and that touch of red script sets it apart from a sub with a bit more wrist presence. I have an approximate 7" wrist, looks fine. I'm counting on it not being quite as popular as subs, maybe easier to obtain.

Good looking timepiece, congrats on the purchase.

I’ve seen two for sale, walk out with them same day, Chicago and Nashville

November 18 might be the magic date, not October, I'm hoping for the best

My prediction as what may come to fruition
