What time do you wear?

Funny, factory service/warranty work for Omega was sent to Dallas, who in turn would send to us in NJ or a couple of other independent shops. Some special watches would be sent to Switzerland. I don't understand why a Seamaster would be.

I am in Dallas. The Omega was first serviced here and when the refinish job on the Titanium turned out less than perfect, I ask it be redone.

They said they did their best, did not charge me and suggested I go through another dealer who was specialty Omega seller.

I know my watch was returned to Switzerland because I was given the registered USPS receipt to pay when I refused the $2K factory quote.

I would suggest that you join the Omega forum over at Watchuseek and post pictures of the watch when you get it back, along with any estimate that that me be included with the return from Omega. Knowledgeable folks there can give you some advice in regard to the costs and reasonableness and/or perhaps a local repair person as an alternative. I have to believe the cost you were quoted includes some level of mechanical and/or case repair to reach that level of expense.

good luck.

I know you are in Dallas that is why I mentioned. I have never refinished Titanium. Either a satin type wheel is used or a sandblasting. Perhaps that facility could not perform the latter. Titanium cannot be high polished.

Example: The Yachtmaster Bezel's low relief is sandblasted followed by a high polish to the raised numerals.
