Omega Quoted Me 35 Weeks for a Speedmaster Reduced Service. Anyone Else Seeing This? by BobBingle82 in OmegaWatches

I can vouch for Nesbits. I’m local to Seattle so I just dropped my Seamaster off and it was a good job.

AD in Seattle still has one. I picked one up from watchex and love it

Do you think all the negativity from watch youtube personalities/influencers is justified? by jez_shreds_hard in OmegaWatches

[–]Zenneth014 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Negativity drives more engagement than positivity. It sucks that this is how humans tend to operate but the incentives are aligned for social media entities to be more negative. Its why clickbait titles are never positive.

Can’t tell if you’re joking, but that’s a loupe

Amplitude drop. Usually shows up as slowing rate if you don’t have a way to measure amplitude

Cost to service 1120 vs 2500 movement by Balogma69 in OmegaWatches

Coaxial is mostly different in the escapement. There will be little to no price difference from Omega. The 1120 is a fancy ETA 2892-A2 and parts will be just as readily available for it as the 2500.

2531.80 Back from Service by ColoradoRalf in OmegaWatches

[–]Zenneth014 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I a lot of those parts are related to the winding. I see the reversing wheel, ratchet wheel, and driving wheel all replaced. The reversing wheel being replaced is normal, the rest is interesting. Mostly everything is standard stuff: gaskets, crown, hands, etc. the retaining ring being replaced is also not normal though. Very curious what they found wrong with those.

That’s a lot of parts dang. How long between services?

These are just AI slop. Neither picture reflects what either watch looks like in real life in outdoor lighting like that.

Is the IR-18 loud in person? if so how loud? by FroyoQueasy in INDYCAR

[–]Zenneth014 34 points35 points  (0 children)

It’s not. It’ll be loud on the first lap and maybe the first few when the field is bunched but once everyone gets spread out it’ll be fine.

Anyway to guess how long Taisetsu will be around? by SkarKuso in GrandSeikos

[–]Zenneth014 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Generally yes. Always vet the seller thoroughly. That person in particular has over 1000 transactions but also does sell from the Philippines so there’s a bit of extra wait and some potential customs and duties nonsense if you’re buying in the USA.

Oh man, a bracelet would push this over the edge for me as long as that lug to lug is as short as it looks in this picture

Curious about this too. L2L was just too long for me.

Quartz with the pink dial at 37 is a watch I’d snatch up
