路Hmmm pretty expensive. But, I can understand why you chose Somlos as there is an Omega connection and one would naturally think one was getting the best.
I would query them about it as the dial has been refinished to what generally one could say was only a mediocre standard. If you can get a refund, go for it. Then we can all chip in and help you acquire a top line collectible for much less.
As I say, don't despair. There wouldn't be one individual on this forum (unless they were a member of the minor deity) who hasn''t had the experience of a disappointing acquisition.

Well I paid 拢2,250 for the watch. I thought I was going in pretty prepared after reading countless posts on this forum and your excellent blog (I assume you are the same Desmond?). I knew I was paying a hefty premium but thought I would get the real deal so was prepared to take the hit.
It's funny you say 'George has probably got to foot the bill for his sixteen grandchildren's orthodontics, his upcoming prostate operation and his wife's excessive generosity at the Synagogue.' as when I was buying the watch I was dealing with a chap called Clive and he was waiting for a call to let him know about a birth of a grandchild. Oh well at least I've kept a newborn in nappies for a year!
