Title: Hello...from a long time lurker and now a newbie in MWF
Post by: jefflwc on June 07, 2012, 01:37:47 PM
Greetings! After being a lurker for a looong time...finally I've decided to be part MWF: Need to contribute also, can't just be the one taking all the time.

Anyway, just to share my humble (and I really mean that..) collections:

What's on my wrist today:

My other watches:

This 1984(?) Omega Seamaster Automatic which I've inherited from my late father:
(http://dl.dropbox.com/u/83652555/20120607_152825.jpg)

Still runs, even though it has been kept aside (hibernating? lol) for almost 20 years, amazing. It is long in the tooth now for a complete service I'd reckon as I believe it was never serviced before. :o

Which brings me to the my question: Any idea how much will Omega charge for a complete overhaul/service? I'd also love to get a leather strap to change out the bracelet.


Anyway, Cheers guys!

Hi jeff,
Welcome to Malaysia Watch Forum.
It looks like you inherited your good taste in watches from your dad.
Really like the Omega Seamaster that he passed on to you.  :)
Is it 18K gold?

 :Cheers:

Great collection bro! Love the Omega no need to take it to some AD to have it serviced the movement is very basic and all they need to do is change the oil and clean it up little.. wish i had one like that works so great under a work shirt...

No, it's not. I believe it is plated.

Yeah, the movement is a cal. 1110, modified version of the Eta 2892 I believe.
Any recommended shops around in Klang valley that can do a good job in servicing? Do let me know or drop me a PM.
Thanks!
