Re: should i be concern
bro Ed, questions still hvn't answers leh...



nothing atas lah...looking at 42mm 2500
Re: should i be concern
ok... to be frank...

you know one lah... OMG all the while had been trying to be acheieve the atas status as Lollie right?

So such a big discount, especially from SWATCH group, which is holding this brand as tight as like their own child... will not let go so easily one. Unless you see the word SWATCH Group or something like that appears on the warranty card... most likely, that could be a piece from another P.I importer lah...

SINN also have P.I stocks you know...
Re: should i be concern
ok wl check...tks for the adv
Re: should i be concern
If Omega, remember that on sales guy told me now discount is poor (tightly controlled) Not too sure what other brands you have in mind but Rolex is also tight, and I am told 5% tao chio liao. (can laugh already) if 6-7% VVIP status. How true I don't know but that's what I have heard. Other Swiss brands are more generous with discount (but at the end of the day, can't say yes or no cuz, if one marks up the price and gives 20-25%, it seems like a lot but if the mark up is not so great and 5% may (Key Word = MAY) be more worth while.



Bencoolen is PI set for sure and the shop imo too atas for a PI place. Don't mean deal with high end must be atas one. :D Just my opinion.

Hmmm... i wonder, if what i'm thinking is...
Re: should i be concern
what brand ? what watch are we talking abt ??
Re: should i be concern
wah chim leh...anyway if the warranty card's jeweler stated Ctime and she not under swatch radar means not gonna service, no?
Re: should i be concern
P.I. sets... like P.I. sets of Seiko lor... the warranty are mostly honored by the seller themselves.

So... let's say if u get a OhMyGod from a seller named Chimpanzee Time, then they have to honor the warranty to you lah. Just make sure that the one you're getting comes with a common movement lor... other wise, if your movement is a niche one, not only you'll have a hard time looking for the parts to replace once your warranty expires, you may also encounter difficulties in getting that skillful watchmaker who can service your niche movement.

If i am not wrong, Omega 2500 is an ETA 2892-2 base movement, believe many watchmakers can handle bah.

gd news...warranty card's jeweler will be stated oversea AD & def will be honour by swatch...Ctime is considered middleman...3 yr warranty and best of all is 30% disc



OMG will be mine 2012 year end closing piece
Re: should i be concern
I don't quite get what you mean...

If the warranty card is printed with overseas AD name, this will considered as grey import liao right?

So... am i right to say that, SWATCH SG will not honor the warranty for free, even if it was given the 3yrs warranty?

It's not that SWATCH SG will not do, but they will charge you some "Admin Processing Fees" that's basically the registration charge and parts cost?

huh?...wat is grey impt



nvr mind...wl chk with her again
Re: should i be concern
Grey import is as much as like a parallel import. It's just like we buy a SEIKO with MADE IN JAPAN off the showcase from a retailer, and the seller will most likely to tell you that they'll honor a 1yr in-house warranty thats not related to ThongSia. Sounds familiar right? The same should applies to the OMG that you're eyeing on. The seller should give you a detail on how the warranty works, such that you won't be knocking on a wall when(touch wood) you bring your problem OMG to SWATCH to claim for warranty.



This will O.T abit... but the same logic applies.

Let's say you buy a IPHONE of the net originated from other country other than SG. If you have a problem with your phone, APPLE SG will not give you free service on repair, exchange or hardware upgrade if you encounter any problem after you have received your phone.



That's why... the price is tempting, but there're always some kind of hidden bugs behind that you have to either bear with or eliminate. The current effective lemon law does not cover goods which are parallel imported.
Re: should i be concern
Omega comes with international Waranty right?



If so swatch group still charge if within warranty period?
Re: should i be concern
Any updates from the seller yet?
Re: should i be concern
Was told by my AD that Omega has international warranty so any Swatch service center worldwide would honor the warranty without me having to pay extra charges as long as its within the warranty period.

I suppose the same case would apply here
Re: should i be concern
That's what I tot too, isn't that the case?
