Help me to buy an Omega

I was looking for Michael Schumacher Speedmaster Dat-date 2002 model [Ref.3529.50]. I check the custer service network on Omega website and directly send a requet email to
omega boutique
Bahnhofstrasse 52
8001 Zürich,
asking if they have this model.

And I got the reply immediately as follows
**********************
After receiving your request I have immediately searched in the international field world wide and I found one piece of the Ref. 3529.50.00 left!

This piece could be with us within 2 – 3 weeks. Please indicate if you want to buy. I must place the order until Friday 30st otherwise it is not sure if we will get it.
***********************

I am a bit concerning whether this piece is a genuine one. Since this model was sold in 2003 and only 5555 pieces were released. I found many fake omega watches and they look exactly the same as the genuine ones.

Is it safe to buy this one?
How should I react?
All your helpful suggestion are highly appreciated.
