    Just curious if anyone knows the cost of ordering a new 1125 bracelet from an Omega boutique.

    Thanks,
    Lee

    You mean I actually have to use the phone or go to the store? This whole mobile age is not all it's cracked up to be... [emoji6]

    Call them up and ask. I know that they will sell watches by phone if you know exactly what you want. Worst they can do is say "No".

    What the Omega Boutique doesn't do is sell over the internet.

    1125/617 combo costs a bit over EUR 420 in France (= USD 460) incl tax (20%).
    Saw one for sale on a NL forum at EUR 350, mint

    I have called for prices and availability. They have always been helpful and more knowledgeable than expected. I have only called for rubber straps and deployant clasps and each time they provided the price. Also, the price was always better than a local AD.

    They also have thrown in some Omega goodies, like an Omega eye loupe or Omega watch travel case.

    When you just buy straps and accessories? Or when you buy a watch?

    Just the rubber straps and deployant clasps for my PO GMT GoodPlanet and PO chronograph. Haven't bought a watch from the boutique yet.

    Well that makes it even more compelling to buy from the OB. I know this is probably not the case for all purchases, but great to know nonetheless.

    Don't buy from an OB expecting anything other than the item and a receipt. That has not been my experience, far from it actually. :confused:

    I have only purchased straps and deployant clasps from the Omega Boutique in suburban Chicago. Service was excellent and the prices were less than any other vendor. Plus they always throw in a extra Omega item. Also,very surprised at how knowledgeable they are with the history of the watch. Pleasantly surprised each time. I have not purchased a watch from them. I always assumed they did not discount the watch.

    Glad to hear it, not the usual experience Downunder though. Good way to get you back and good training should encourage this as customer service is what it's all about
