·Hi!
I am new to this forum - glad to find a place to talk about what has become somewhat of an obsession 😀)).
A few months ago I got hold of a 145.012 (-68), a bit worn, but still I had been looking for this for a while now so I took the chance on it. It is currently with Omega factory for sevicing and they have suggested some replacements.
I am looking for advice and opinions on the replacements suggested by Omega;
1. They want to replace the bezel, and I have confirmation that they will ship the old one as well if they do. I have also asked if they can keep the original on and ship a new one to me to have a spare. What would you do?
2. I have asked to not polish glass and case (they accepted this).
3. Pusher is being replaced (one if obviously an unoriginal part as can be seen from picture).
4. The bracelet I got with the watch is an unoriginal one and I asked Omega for the 1039 bracelet which they said they don´t have. But they offered me the 1171/633, which I think is the most correct one to have even if I would want an original one from -68. Any thoughts?
Any input or thoughts would be greatly appreciated, I don´t want to end up paying Omega 2000+€ and regret it later.
Thank you!
