I don't often use it, but the online sales feature on the Omega site is both handy and reassuring (especially since my local Boutique just closed its doors). However, I've noticed that the shopping bag icon has disappeared from the site, both on my phone and laptop. Every item simply has the "contact a Boutique about this piece" statement, rather than "add to bag". Has anyone else in the US noticed this? If not, any ideas why it doesn't work for me? I don't have any imminent purchases planned, but I'm quite curious.
I'm able to see the add to basket button (using chrome in the Netherlands): https://www.omegawatches.com/en-us/...-chronometer-chronograph-42-mm-31030425001001
Still fully functional on the US site for me on a desktop and tablet. Although there are many items 'out of stock' or on a 'waiting list' status, there are plenty of 'Add to Basket' items, like the new Speedmasters
So if I go directly to omegawatches.com, what comes up is this: If you look in the upper right corner, there's no shopping bag icon, and if I explore elsewhere on the site, there's no way to do direct purchases. However, I Googled "omega watches direct online shop", and clicked on a link from there, which came up as this: In both cases, the URL was simply omegawatches.com, and I was already logged in. The online sales feature and "add to basket" are there. Bizarre.
That’s very odd… I just did the same thing. I typed the website direct into my browser and could not add to my basket. I instead got the contact a boutique message: But, when I Googled “Omega watches” and clicked the first link, which was the same address as what I typed in my browser, I am able to add that same watch to my basket… Definitely odd.
You may have a blocker for a pop-up window on your browser. When I go to omegawatches.com, I get a window asking if I want to connect to the online store. I click “enter store” and it looks the same except now there is a shopping bag icon and you can can buy stuff. check your security’s preferences to allow omegawatches.com to use pop-up windows and see if it works.
Interesting. I've occasionally seen a brief notification that says "pop-up blocked" or some such, but not in this case. It makes me wonder how much stuff I'm missing ... for better or worse.
