·It seems that we don't exactly know what is meant by this, at least I'm not sure.
I know there are Omega Service Centers, for me this is Miami in USA, where you send your modern and many vintage watches can be sent for service at a flat rate. I personally don't do this any more because of multiple bad experiences.
Some vintage calibers are not authorized for service in the US and must go to Bienne (or Biel, but Omega are historically Francophone). I don't know what this includes.
There is also Omega's "restoration service" in Bienne, where they'll make your watch look new for $1500 flat rate. I assume that's what happens, and regardless of what you ask for, that's the result you get.
Can we clarify which "horror stories" occur where? I think it would be useful to the community at large.
Thanks
