·The last one I ordered took 14 days to receive the pdf and for the physical EOA to be posted - ordered 18 March and received on 1 April. Probably took up to a week more to receive the physical EOA.

·I just received physical copies almost exactly 8weeks from submission.
Unfortunately I got 2 “orange boxes” with the “sometimes the information has not survived or is unreadable” 🙁 Better than the “it doesn’t match our records” but still disappointing after 2mths.

·I'm not impressed with Omega. In my opinion, they should provide this service for no charge to their very loyal clients who buy their products and provide incredible word-of-mouth advertising of their products while not only paying nothing for the advertising but getting PAID for their products. And I can see no good reason why the process isn't automated by this time. We should be able to input our info and instantly get the basic data they provide on a pdf that we can print. Free.

Long story short, even if it was 30 days, that sounds like a dream over here across the pond.

·I‘ve got a pretty shitty track record ordering an extract.
Either I‘m too stupid to fill in the three fields correctly and upload four decent pictures, or I have a special skill in attracting watches with swapped movements. I love the two watches regardless. I‘m done ordering any more.

·Or Omega is guilty of asshattery and should provide this service at no cost. Extracts are overrated.

·Out of curiosity, and forgive me if someone answered this already but I didn't see anything in the previous replies, does anyone know why the ability to submit online and the digital copy service that is offered in Europe is not offered for other countries (USA, Canada, etc..)?

Did Omega refund you?

Here is a thread that discusses this. Rather than try to summarize it, you may enjoy reading it yourself.

The web system is available in Canada. I think it’s only the US where this isn’t available.

No, they say the fee compensates them for their efforts.

·Psst! Try the US Virgin Islands trick if you want to order online in the US.
You didn't hear it from me...
Will report back if I receive a digital and or physical extract using this method.
