    Call Omega or go into your local AD, but sadly I think not.

    Yes Omega will sell it to you, for over $1,000.

    If they sell it as a individual part and you don't own an Alaska project I would be very surprised.

    Go to the Omega website and find your nearest Boutique, and give them a call. They should be able to look up the part and tell you the price and if you can order it.

    Then come back and tell us what happened! Good luck!

    Not sure where you are getting this information...

    Part number is 055AL1450302. And then it says this under the price...

    "Information:Specific component, return the item"

    I would guess these are only available on an exchange basis...

    I told the NY Omega boutique I had the watch, and that I was interested in purchasing parts of the set. They opened up a software where each individual piece of the original set were available for purchase separately. The red outer case was listed at around $1,300. They gave me the ref. number of the piece + contact info of the headquarters, saying I could place in a PO for it.

    No I didn't, I thought it would be nice to have it as a bonus piece but not worth the investment alone... :(

    I would just caution that unless you actually went through and made the purchase, I would still question if it can be done. Sometimes the information obtained from someone who answers the phone inquiries is not exactly spot on - they may have assumed you had a parts account and may not have noticed the small text saying it was on exchange...
