Re: Found an as 'new' Seamaster 2589.30. Was browsing
: the internet dealers that I know and saw the special edition for
: the US only Seamaster 2589.30. Called the dealer who is an AD
: for other brands, not Omega, and was told the watch was
: virtually new with all goodies. This dealer has a couple of
: locations in a major metro area and employes three watchmakers.
: He backs up his pre-owned with a one year warranty so service,
: no problem. I placed the order for the watch and will receive it
: tomorrow (Tuesday). I'm wondering if anyone has/had this model
: and thoughts on it.
: Thanks in advance.
I've got one in the black. Its a hunk of watch but small enough to wear comfortably. I got it in a trade and have been pretty satisfied so far.
I will mention that it has the JP 33XX movement thats known to give problems. I've had a PO Chrono and a Broad Arrow and the PO has been
repaired twice and the Broad Arrow once. I think that most of the newer models have a fix in place to make them more reliable so if its a fairly
new model you should be fine. Its a deadly accurate movement that when running well, preforms great.
