More movement-swapping info
In Response To: Re: I think you're right... ()

Just heard back from the fellow who had the 2500A movement that Omega replaced with a 2500C.

He says, "When Omega replaced the movement, they did assign a new SN. I was surprised to see that they removed the old number and engraved a new one on the case as well. I could look up the details, but I sold the LE in order to fund another purchase (Lange), so I no longer have the paperwork."

So the original papers would not match the watch. Hopefully, when Omega returns such watches after changing the SNs of the case and movement, they provide clear documentation stating that they did this -- documentation with both the new and old SNs on it. I'd want that, for obvious reasons.
