: Was wondering what everybody thought about me sending in my 2254
: for regulation. It runs about 5 secs slow a day consistantly. I
: know Omega does this under warranty but hearing all the horror
: stories I'm not sure I want them to have it. There are watch
: makers in my area that could probably do this but how does that
: affect the warranty? Thanks
Look for a local authorized dealer with an inhouse Omega certified technician. Lord knows there is a Rolex certified techician everywhere, so there must be at least one Omega certified within driving distance close to you. Regulation is a simple process and shouldn't have to be sent anywhere to be done. And FWIW, my SMP is similar at around -6 secs a day for several years now. I thought about having it regulated and even inquired to a local authorized service person. Was basically told to not even waste their time until it was losing much more time than that. But, if its under warranty, and it bothers you, go for it.
And yes, I believe that if you have it done by someone that is not authorized by Omega, it will void the warranty, and rightfully so, because if they F it up, Omega should not be expected to foot the bill to correct their mistake.
