You're right, I asked what you thought and got an answer, thanks. Not trying to once again debate the the replacement process.

You know there are people that can cut these keys from pics right??
I think not, the porsche dealer couldn't even get it right.

IMS Upgrade... peace of mind... wouldn't go without it.

Autobahn Autosport. Ask for Hans. You can tell him that John with the black 996 cab (just got an LNE installed) recommended him.
http://www.autobahnautosport.com

I shopped around for awhile and only a few places in town are really qualified to do this kind of work - most of them are very expensive.
Beck's has a very good reputation and Zuffenhausen was personally recommended to me. But in the end I went with Autobahn because of their price. So far I'm very happy.

The 42 mm Planet Ocean is a great watch. So is the new Rolex Ceramic Sub. I'm more of a Speedmaster Pro guy myself.

S'far as the IMS bearings though...meh not so much.

The Omega's PO Co-Axial movement is a very nice COSC certified movement.

I prefer the Speedmaster myself too but had to step away and sell a few watches to fund my current Porsche.
