slowmastermk40
·Hi All!
New here, so go easy please! 😀.
I've just bought my second Omega, my first being a super cheap 90s Deville..but this time I've gone for a Speedmaster!
I set my heart on the design of the mk40, and my budget just about stretched to a 3520.50 on Chrono24 with aftermarket leather strap (which doesn't bother me). It was pretty much the cheapest one on there with a warranty card..right at the top of my budget I reiterate (I have 101 hobbies, and saving for a wedding, in fact I'm desperate to wear it on the big day)
So the watch arrives, I love it and it seems to work fine..BUT the serial number on the case back is a digit off the serial number on the warranty card.
It's a middle digit, 6 instead of an 8 kind of job, so plausible as a typo perhaps, the Japanese seller, who has 000s of good reviews, thinks it's just a typo too.
What's your advice please guys/gals? Is it big alarm bells and you'd return it (I've been offered this by the seller), or do you think it's no big deal to a non-collector like myself who just wants to own a Speedmaster.
Thanks in advance,
Matt, UK.
