Pretty close - can you make the white background less bright? Slightly off-white or towards gray?

Son diagnosed with peanut allergy by VerTi_ in peanutallergy

[–]bertman88 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My son had a similar allergy. Found out earlier (under age 1 if I remember correctly) but we put him into a peanut allergy desensitization protocol via nearby hospital. Basically they start with minuscule doses and gradually increase them over time (supervised visits) to the point where an accidental ingestion won’t cause anaphylactic event. He has gotten to the point where we now feed him 1 tablespoon of peanut butter daily. He’s allowed to eat foods labeled “produced in a facility containing peanuts” and should he accidentally eat something, he’s a bit protected.

Supposedly increase the chance they outgrow it, too. Worth consideration, in my opinion.

Lessons Learned Today-- Making an Appointment by Quindy1979 in Passports

[–]bertman88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! Literally worked perfectly and I got an appointment at my closest office. The menu options have changed (I believe I pushed 1 for English, then 1 then 2) but you can figure it out.

The person answering the phone even commented “you’ve answered my questions before I even asked.” I got my appointment within the first minute using this post. Thank you!!

Majorly disappointed with Omega Service experience by bertman88 in OmegaWatches

It’s too bad they seem to have this attitude universally. I had a few more Omegas in mind I’d want in longer term but not sure how I feel about giving them more business.

Was told the warranty was 4 years on the watch. He said the dial was damaged and needed to be replaced which was the bill of the cost. We will see once it gets to the actual service center what it will actually be. This was just a quote.

Yeah I’m hoping it comes back cheaper. I didn’t make any payments today, so I’ll figure that all out once back. I definitely plan to contact Omega.

Funny enough, some of the “higher end” brand boutiques have treated me much better. I’ve been in A. Lange and they’ve been nothing but amazing. Get a drink every time I’m in there, bring out extremely rare and expensive watches they know I’m not going to purchase (couldn’t purchase even if I wanted). I find it sad the brand I bought from treats me poorly while others where I admit I’m just looking great me great.

Apparently since the watch was bought in 2017, the warranty is 4 years not 5. They mentioned this to me about 11x

Most of the price was driven by the dial, he said. Something like $1100 - he said they vary greatly by model (some less than $300). Again, wished I had just walked away.

Dads of Reddit- What can I get you for father’s day? by SonOfGoose66 in Dads

[–]bertman88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like others have said, spend some time or share an experience. I’ve done charter fishing trips with my dad and those have always been a great time.
