    Good Evening

    I have built several 300's using the 166.0324 cases. Had a dial hands back and bezel from a previous restoration, I thought I would build another since I had several 565's still left and to my dismay the cases are no longer available? Is that based on Omega no longer allowing the sell of parts? Any other resources?

    Thanks

    Omega is restricting the supply of parts like Rolex. I heard several watchmakers in Australia have been stripped of their Omega parts accounts in recent weeks as their workshops do not meet Omega's ridiculous standards. I have heard watchmakers have failed Omega certification as their workshop floors were carpet instead of vinyl etc.

    You may be able to get one off Watchco who started this whole thing. They are no longer in Australia and have relocated to NZ. I am not sure of their current business name but someone here will chime in.
