I got an Omega speedmaster for my husband from Authentic Watches. After two months, it started to slow down. We sent it to Authentic Watches for repair. After THREE MONTHS and horrible communication on the part of Authentic Watches (sometimes it took them a week to answer an email, and only after I sent follow-up emails and made phone calls), we finally got the watch back– broken in an entirelly differnt way! The hands were bent so that one hand catches on the other and so it stops every time it gets to 9 o’clock! This after the entire last month they had it “for repair” they were telling us it was in “testing” phase. Didn’t a month of “testing” show that the hands were bent! Abysmal service, abysmal company. We are also going to send it to Omega to test for authenticity. I am surprised Amazon has a partnership with them.

I am extremely disappointed with the level of service provided by amazon after my purchase of this watch. Though they say a warranty card would be included with the product, it never was. Later, when i called up and asked why the warranty wasn’t included, a customer agent told me that it would follow through in the mail a couple of weeks later.
Surprise, it didn’t.
When i called them again to find out where the warranty was, another agent who barely spoke English informed me that the warranty is always included in the package and that it is never sent separately. So whom do I believe? Its too late for me to return the product as it is over 30 days and I have no warranty card in the case of any repairs. Instead, all I was sent was an email link to the pdf version which I could have downloaded from the website anyway. i dread the day anything goes wrong with the watch because I have nothing in hand and have to deal with incompetent service people and inconsistent policies instead.
My advice, pay the difference and get it from an authorised agent.

Ordered this watch about a month ago. It is my second Omega (also have a 13 year old Seamaster – working great) and it has not disappointed me to date. Great quality and keeps perfect time. The chronograph works excellently; you can actually read the time down to 0.1825 seconds, amazingly.
Why the Omega instead of the R!&%x? Omega is the oldest watch maker in the industry (comparitively). The crystal is absolutely indestructable (ok, so maybe a tie here). The watch band is far better quality – just go pick up brand “R” and you’ll see. There are many many knock-offs of brand “R” you can pick up anywhere, even the local discount chain (granted they aren’t branded as such, but they sure look the same from a distance). Omega doesn’t have quite the following so when you see one, pretty good chance it is real.

I didn’t buy this from Amazon – or any other of Amazon’s vendors. Amazon has a better price than I paid, but don’t expect Omega to provide any warranty service. If you are okay with that, then by all means feel free to buy from the ‘gray market’ here or someplace like Costco, where you will sometimes see Omegas at discounted prices.
The watch itself is an amazingly beautiful timepiece for 1/3rd the price of a Rolex Daytona, which would be its equivelent in that brand. It is 40mm like the Daytona, and like that one, wears a little small relative to modern watches that are getting as large as 50mm (gross). However, unlike some of those blingy monsters it just screams understated quality. I especially like the seamonster on the back.
The chrono automatic keeps essentially perfect time, although remember, folks this isn’t a quartz watch; it is completely normal for it to gain or lose the same amount in a day as a decent quartz does in a week. That said this one runs just about perfect at +2 per day on my wrist. I pull the crown out for 1 minute, once per month and all is well. The power reserve is outstanding and it will run nearly all weekend on my dresser if I have been wearing it for awhile. The subdials are easy to read and the lume is good, but not quite what you would see on a diver because the hands and indexes are smaller. The bracelet & clasp is simply first rate and puts the much more expensive Rolex to shame.
As with any mechanical watch, find a good watchmaker (good ones are getting hard to find so look around) and have this serviced every 5 years or when it starts runs down quickly or run fast. Omega will do this for you too, but at a much higher price. It is out of warranty at that point, so I personnaly prefer support my local economy.
Given proper service, this is something you easily could pass on to your children. Omega stocks parts for models 50 years or more old at this point.
Highly recommended – In a nutshell a qualty, yet affordable timepiece that you deserve to have spend a lifetime on your wrist.

The problem with half the reviews so far is that they’re complaints about the vendor, not the watch itself. There are other ways to review the vendors/dealers that Amazon uses, not here on the product review. So far, I love this watch, love the way it looks & the compliments I get from it. It’s a heavy watch, but that’s not unique to Omega, it’s just all the internal components of an automatic watch. The diameter is perfect for me, not too oversized like some watches these days. It’s got the perfect amount of info needed without looking too cluttered ( the second hand, date, chronograph.)
- Looks: This is a beautiful watch when the light catches the dials and it contrasts against the black face.
- Accuracy: No, it’s not going to be as accurate as a quartz, but only requires adjustment every 3-4 weeks (and it’s only off by 15-20 seconds)
- Size/comfort: It looks & feels great now, but the weight took some getting use to. If you’re really tall or have big wrists, then the 40mm face may feel too small. I had a watch shop remove the links for me, and yes there are smaller adjustments on the clasp. I don’t feel the logo to b a bother, and I do agree that resurfacing the back of the watch is an idiotic move.
