Sorry, but I still think you mixed it up. It's 60m.

 

I was thinking, in the case of the Speedmaster, that the case might be the same case used in the FOIS but the 1mm difference in diameter was down to the narrower bezel. Can anyone confirm or deny this? If it's true then we can be confident that the bracelet will work with the FOIS and CK2998.

 

I bit of hesitation on my side. i am a member since an year and a half already and have around a 100 posts. There are people around with over 5000 posts membership duration 3 years. Is the membership professional. I would be able to participate in such manner only and if i leave everything else aside. And there are others that have a membership since the latest weeks but seem to know everything. Just curious what would be the comments around these facts? By the way lack of comments is pretty good answer at the end as well. Shall i be banished for such like observations?

 

The cost of a watch little or nothing to do with the manufacturing inputs.

 

Yup! Value-, not cost-based industry !

 

Perceived/speculative/"whatever we can get away with"* value, at that.

Found a watch that would go as deep as...

 

And please sell your vintage asap too, do it!!

 

It would be validated just as much of it was on the caseback

 

Does anyone have an idea why the Speedmaster only has a 2 year warranty, whereas the SM300 and Railmaster have 4 year warranties? I realize the movements are different and manual vs. automatic. So, do all new Speedmasters with manual wind movements only have 2 year warranties? I was under the assumption all Omegas nowadays came with a 4 year warranty. Guess I assumed wrong.

 

Guess it just depends how keen you are and how much free time you have. A few folks here do trade in watches, but I'm sure most are just enthusiasts like myself.

 

My FOIS which I purchased in December also has a 2 year warranty, so I think it must be specific to the manual-wind 1861 movement.

 

2 years is the std warranty. They stretched it to 3 years on the early Co-ax stuff and now 4 years on the in-house co-ax hence the non co-ax 1861 is 2 years only.

 

To me, this is the most exciting release this year



THE bracelet for CK2998/FOIS =)

Photoshop says it fits, and I doubt that Omega bothered to design a brand new case. Fingers crossed, this works

 

They are endorsing the tech behind their new movements. Coaxial and Master-Coaxial movements all have 4 years warranty...

 

That is one way of looking at it. Another is that with all the problems the early co-ax versions had, they felt obliged to extend the warranty to puts some customer confidence back. The 2500 A-B and 3313A had serious issues.

 

sooooo… endorsing the new calibers?

 

They should just do 5 year warranties to take on Rolex

 

That's exactly what I'm thinking, too. The ceramic inlay in the CK2998 has to be held with an extra "ring" around it on the bezel. This is not needed with the all steel bezel of the 60th speedy.
