I got Seamaster Diver 300M comming up for service (loosing time even on watch winder, its almost 9 years old)

I hear there is SS models increase and also wonder if service costs will go up from 1st of april?

In witch case I will take watch asap for service (just so busy wanted to do it later)

You should be able to find the answer here (or on the comparable page on the Omega website wherever you are).

They already did an increase of around 50% last year. I don't think they will do one again this soon.

In the US, it wasn’t 50%, more like a fixed $150 markup, which ranged from 20-30% depending on base rate. But I agree, it is unlikely to go up again so soon.

Is your watch technically still METAS certified post servicing?

I modified clasp to adjustable one, do you guys think Omega will have problem servicing it?

Nope, no problem at all

Now in Europe a service of a basic automatic is 750€. If I remember well then at the end of 2022 I paid 500 😵‍💫

I've just had my 2008 Seamaster serviced (ref 21230412001001). The cost was in line with their menu pricing at £590.
I was told it would be completed in July however it was only five weeks.
When I booked it in, the chap on the phone did say they quote few months turn around to allow for peaks and troughs in demand.
