Not sure what you are saying...is the watch currently functioning properly? If yes, there is no warranty issue, so if you want it serviced you will pay for that. The price for a full service would include the appropriate replacement parts that are needed.

Cheers, Al

Hey Al, thanks for the clarification and sorry for being unclear.

I believe that Omega issued a fix for the 2500C (?) and I'm wondering if there's any need to get the watch sent in to get the fix done, or is it something that i shouldn't bother until a problem comes up. Not sure if I'm approaching this right as with autos and voluntary recalls and the like...

Archer · Nov 20, 2014

You didn't answer my question...is there a problem with the watch?

If not, there is no warranty at play.

Cheers, Al

The watch is fine..no issues now probably due to it being sparingly used. but I'm afraid something that the known fault may come up later, out of the warranty period.

Archer · Nov 20, 2014

Right now Omega will not service for free or replace any parts for free - there is nothing wrong with the watch so the warranty does not apply.

The warranty period is the warranty period - it is not extended because of a design fault - if it makes it to the end of the warranty and runs fine, Omega has provided what they said they would to you...a watch that runs fine for the duration of the warranty period.

As I said before, if it needs service in the future outside of warranty, the replacement parts will be included in the service price. One "benefit" of going to Omega for service is that they price a whole bunch of replacement parts into their base service price, whether they need replacing or not, so you are covered.

Seriously I would recommend you stop worrying about what may or may not happen down the road, and just enjoy your watch mate.

Cheers, Al

I agree enjoy the watch.. 😀

I can see why you would be worried but really chill and take it out for a spin. Service is not cheap but it's not that bad either since it isn't a chronograph and it's still relatively new.

So they went to LM then moved back to Ceramic!?

Nobel Prize · Jan 13, 2015

LM only applies to the metal in bezel and dial. The "black" is ceramic

K9kids · Jan 13, 2015

Is it the bezel and dial or just the bezel?

Nobel Prize · Jan 13, 2015

both bezel and dial are ceramic I believe. that's what makes the dial Glossy. not sure if all the numerals and applied logo are LM or just the LM legend (ZrO2) The other difference is text is red, not orange. these are stock pics:

is the titanium 8500 PO the same as the limited edition that everyone raves about?
sure looks like it (except blue vs black)

Basically yes, except it is not limited edition. There are only 1947 of the black one. not sure if the blue has the alloy legend either...

And according to your earlier post it's thicker...
No?

Oh yes, It is as it houses the 8500 cal. The LMLE is 2500 cal. Actually I think (someone can correct me on this one) it is the 2500C cal, which was known to have had some trouble in some units. One of the few things I found on my research that could be viewed as negative.

Nobel Prize · Jan 13, 2015

In practical terms if you set both watches next to each other the 8500 has a full crown over the 2500. worth saying though that because of the way it sits on the wrist at most angles you don't see or feel the "belly" case back on the 8500. it sits lower than you would think if you just place it on a flat surface. so it actually looks good, very good, unless you have a smaller wrist. If you like to wear the watch forward on the wrist or on the actually wrist bone area then you will feel it for sure, same as if you wear dress shirts or narrow sleeve jackets. Theses are both mine, the 8500 is in plastic because I have it fir sale so I keep it in the safe. If you wanted you can see the post on the watch sale section.

Also worth noting that the gray bezel is not that gray after all, depends on the light hitting it as it is ceramic. I like it better than orange, more flexible for me to wear, I can always use an orange strap if I want to make it sport (er) and that there may be a good term for the 8500; because of it's bulk it's more sporty to me than the 2500 which has more dress wear potential. No one will blame you for wearing it on a tux or naked though, it is a great watch in every iteration.

The LMLE is thinner than the 8500. Plus the red markers and the Zr02 marks. It was the introduction of that material. There are some still available but it is hard to find.

It also has the blue line which is different than the green lume found in the other 2500's. It's a transitional model, which is quite nice
