    UPS strikes again. "Lost" my 145.012. If anyone sees it floating around please let me know.
    Serial# 250099xx. Unfortunately it was in good shape so not many identifying marks other than some defects on bezel near 110 and between 225 and 250, and some missing lume on minute hand. Oh, and a little black mark base of minute hand.

    Oh, did I mention I hate UPS??

    Thanks everyone in this wonderful community.

    Sorry to hear it. I think it is easily recognised....

    Some more details might help. Which country? Or Area?

    Assuming US.

    We will all keep an eye out.

    How long is it missing?

    Lets find it...

    Thanks William. Lost between Oregon and NJ since 1/12.
    Insured but not for full value (long story and my bad)

    Will keep a close eye out for it on the bay, I believe Omega now have a 'flag' list of serial numbers of watches that have gone awol so if they appear at any time in the service network they red flag. I have a good contact in Swatch UK if you want details as a first port of call to reach out to them.

    Cheers Tom

    Wow, UPS now really on my black list
    Last time they lost a very nice uber rare Carrera :(

    Hope it's insured or found soon!

    I feel your pain. The aforementioned uber rare Carrera was mine, and due to their incompetence it's gone forever. Hate UPS with the passion of 1,000 suns.

    Oh I know! 7753. I remember it so well because I just happened to have found one two days after yours went missing. Was worried I was getting yours except mine is black.

    Update. UPS seems ??? to have found it. Proof will be in the pudding if it shows up tomorrow. Thanks everyone for the concern.
    Maybe if it comes I will celebrate with a search for a nice tropical :).

    I'm thrilled to hear your news. Please keep us posted on package progress to you. Is there any information you can share regarding UPS response and helpfulness or not to this point?

    UPS is evil. USPS registered mail is the way to go, even though the paper tape packaging requirement is kind of a pain. Fedex isn't too bad.

    Glad to hear they (seem to have) located it.
