Re: Doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason

Thanks, Mike and John

I agree. What is the point of an A-C design if it's on some waches and not on others in a line. I could understand a little more if it were included on some of Omega'a lines like the Connie My Choice or SMP, etc and not on others. But what I am hearing is that some PO non chroographs (as is mine) have it and some don't. I could understand, if this is rue, if Omega said "all watches from Jan 1st 2006 will carry the A-C design". I have emailed Omega on this issue a number of time and never with a response. I even phoned the The SWATCH company here in Australia, but the rep hadn't heard of the A-C design before! They will get back to me. As a WIS in training, I am becoming crazily confused over what should be a simple issue. do some PO non-chronographs have the A-C design and if so when did they begin putting them on. Simple really. Still I love my PO and I am loking forward to my next purchase, probably a Speedy (with or without the anti-counterfeit design?).

Cheers
John
