My Latest Omega Purchase

I was at the Omega Boutique in Bellevue, Washington, killing time before dinner at John Howie Steak and remembered I needed a new strap. I was kind of amazed that Omega still has brand new 98000024 calf black padded with holes straps, a.k.a. rally strap for Speedmasters. $210. I had it shipped so I wouldn’t need to pay sales tax. Anyways, here’s the unboxing.

So 210 was the price with tax and 160 is what you paid or is the price on that sticker old?

Old sticker, half the price of the guy on eBay.

Copy all…currently in Bellevue, WA on a long layover. Will they let me in that place if I’m wearing a Metallica t-shirt?

As long as the air drumming is kept under control.
