I'll pass, I just got a Speedmaster for $270 from my local Swatch store. šš¤£
Word on the street is Rolex was so impressed (and jealous) with Omega's marketing mastery for the budget Swatch/Omega Speedmaster, they will be releasing a $199 Submariner this fall.
Never paid attention to that. So are they not authorized by any brand? Just wondering in case of future purchase.
Most online watch sellers aren't authorized dealers (some are). Resellers take the stock authorized sellers can't move at cost. They're genuine and will almost always have serial #'s.
If you're really concerned about manufacturers warranty you must buy from authorized sellers. Manufacturers make a big deal about only buying from authorized sellers but it's all a big wink and a nod thing. A store is allotted 75 watches and expected to sell 75. When it looks like they're only going to move 50, 25 are sold to the resellers and everyone is happy.
My buddy just got the Omega/Swatch earth model. Looks pretty sweet. He's been hounding the shop in Toronto stopping in multiple times per day to get it though. He's on the case to get me one as well, black or grey. Fingers crossed.

Yes. You won't get manufacturers warranty but a Jomashop warranty. Really unlikely you'll get a bum Omega.
