Look my friend,
When are you going to take some lessons and learn to take a descent photo?
It's like you don't even try.
I'll go through it once more.
You need the following,
Bad angle, bad lighting, terrible background, less than perfect focus...

Here! Let me show you ;)

Lol! Obviously I'm kidding. As I've said before,
Whatever you do for a living, unless it's being employed as a professional photographer, you are in the wrong line of work.
You seriously have great talent and very cool watches! [emoji119]

He had it built from scratch, all the parts from an Omega account holder. So essentially it is a brand new watch, but w/o a warranty.

As these two folks said [emoji106]

No Omega warranty, but the watchmaker who assembled it warranty's the entire build. He is for lack of a better word "an Omega certified watch maker" in Canada.

Fortunately for the guys who like having a brand-new watch we are lucky to have this watchsmith locally. The watch came full set with box, all the packaging and booklets...just no cards. The watch smith also included a 25 page PDF on the entire build.

I actually bought this from another gentleman who had it built from scratch, let me tell you he spent a ton of money on the individual parts. He could have bought two used SMP's for the price he paid to build this one.

I was on ofrei pricing parts so I can relate to the cost of it. Still imo worth every penny, because no where else are you going to get a BNIB SMP like this unless someone is holding out with a safe queen.
Curious though, does the case have a sn in the normal spot? would be easy enough to get a blank warranty card and register it I would think, it is 100% gen after all.

Thank you my man for the tips! Honestly I'm just a dude with a camera (iphone) who knows a few basic photoshopping techniques. I guarantee that you could take any of the pics I do. However I will try your kind of photography.. it sounds interesting. :)

Bahaha! No don't. It's a huge mistake! Lol!
As far as taking any of your pics,
I'd like the next three. I'll pm you my address.
Lol! And that concludes my step by step on making really bad jokes. :)

No so that's the catch - because he has used a service replacement case there is no serial number. The only thing it does have is the anti-counterfeit logo on the case back.

I'm not entirely sure whether Omega would service the watch with the lack of serial number but to be honest if it needed work I'd send it to Archer watches. From a resale standpoint it's fine as most of the folks on the gen forums know archer watches as well.

Pardon the sweat marks, it hasn't come off my wrist since I got it:
