After a family style dinner at Maggiano's (google it - great place for italian food), stopped by a local AD for Omega, Tag, Hamilton, Tissot etc to try on a few items (Planet Ocean, Seamaster GMT etc).
I was looking very closely at the GMT and was amazed when I looked at the lume on it. The application of the lume was uneven, lumpy and made it look 'cheap' for a $2500 watch. I asked the owner about it - he said, noone in his 25 years in business ever noticed something like that or asked about it. I happened to be wearing my Orsa 3T Sea Angler and showed him the outstanding job Kent did on the lume.
He quickly changed the subject and started calculating a price on the PO for me (and before you ask, no it didn't come home with me - not yet). Question I have is, is that normal to expect on a watch of the quality of an Omega or am I being too picky?
Steve,
Were they all like that? Perhaps a bad apple.
No you were not to picky at $2500 it should be perfect.
