    This would be the decent thing to do.

    Which service center was the perpetrator?

    I'm fairly certain it was returned to Omega in Switzerland...?
    My team at my local OB was super cool about it, no questions asked. It's been a few weeks and I'm just waiting patiently. It definitely sounded like the midcase was going to be replaced which bums me out a little because the only thing I don't care for on the Railmaster is the high polish. Maybe I can request a light air abrasion to get a slightly satinized finish? Should I ask?

    Omega will not apply a finish that did not come with the watch - they're all about returning the watch to showroom condition, as it was sold. I've heard of an exception with brushing polished center links, but that is it.

    I had a buckle snap the other day... Fortunately I was climbing out of a pit full of foam blocks at a kids' gymnastics studio. It was a very soft landing!

    Happy Halloween!
    Well aftera about 10 weeks, my Trilogy Railmaster finally returned from Omega service today after sending it back due to damage from service earlier this year (see my previous posts).
    Not only was the mid-case replaced, but it looks like the bezel and caseback as well....it's like brand new complete with caseback sticker.
    I was told by my OB that the reason it took so long was that they had to get the case numbers synched with the movement numbers so that everything is all legit in their records etc...

    Glad it all worked out and that Omega stood behind their work.

    Don't swing your arms like a monkey when you walk and you'll be okay.
