·Hi everyone,
A few years ago I purchased a pretty beat up CK2913-3. It's been serviced by the great Al from Archer watches and he did his miracle work to get it up and running properly again. I even went and got an Extract of the Archives from Omega for the watch and my worries of it being a "frakenwatch" were put to rest.
But there's still one thing that nags at me constantly. The bezel.
Someone (I'm guessing years ago) tried to redo the bezel and while they did an acceptable job, it's not 100% accurate. I really wish they had just left it alone.
So, I contacted the great Aldo and sent him some pics. He said he could help me out but to send more pics.
I sent more pics and that's when he stopped responding.
That was 2 years ago and I decided to try one last time. No response. So I assume he's either: 1) Extremely busy or 2) can't help me out.
Wondering if anyone else around here knows of someone that can redo the bezel?
I've seen this bezel insert on ebay but it looks like it's plastic and while it looks "okay"...it doesn't have the concave shape that is so distinctive to these watches.
