Some Good News and Some Bad
don't know if i mentioned it here, but my new casamigos sea master died last week. so I dropped off the casamigos at the Omega boutique yesterday. they just sent it in for warranty. they were kind enough to offer my a speedy loaner watch, but I declined because I didn't want the responsibility. the manager told me that the Apollo 50th are starting to roll in and I should be getting mine soon. before I left he gave me an official space pen with pressurized cartridge for those times you need to write in zero G situations.

Casamigos is a beautiful watch! I'm sorry to hear about the trouble. Nice gesture of them to offer you a loaner and that pen is super cool. When I got my Deep Black they gave my son an underwater notepad and pen.
Please post pics of the Casamigos when it's returned to you! |

Such is the watch game. Your watch will be back soon enough along with another incoming so you are good. Nice pen.

Hearing your watch needs repair already is a bummer but I'm glad to hear about the OB giving this level of service. Its the little things like this, that will keep me buying from a boutique and with Omega. My Rolex AD doesn't offer me anything. I can't even buy a watch from them, let alone get a loaner and a gift! LOL.

Sorry about your watch snafu.
Your mention of the space pen reminds me of the Seinfeld episode “The Pen”. “It writes upside down!” Also, I seem to recall those pens are made by a single manufacturer in Las Vegas. Lastly, there’s a story that NASA spent untold amounts of time, energy and $ to develop a pen that would write in space. The tighter-budgeted Russians’ solution was to just use a pencil. |
