![]() Mark at http://www.timeshops.net wanted to finish off this holiday season and usher in a new year the way one should.... with a free giveaway! ![]() What we have here is 42mm Omega Planet Ocean with a 21J movement in it. Today I greased the gaskets to aide in it's water resistance and then put it to the test. You will see photos below which display pressure tests at 3 bars and 6 bars that I performed today. The watch passed both tests with no leaks. ![]() To win this watch you must follow these rules. (READ CAREFULLY!) 1. Visit http://www.timeshops.net 2. Find a watch there that is the next watch that you will likely buy. 3. Copy the page link to the watch that you found above 4. Copy the link to the photo of the watch that you found above. 5. Copy the description of the watch from the page which you found above. 6. Paste the link, photo & description in a post below as well as anything else you might have to say. I'll assign numbers and then draw a winner through a random method. This contest will run into the New Year and I will likely end it in the first week of January. Please see COLDI's post below, it is a perfect example of how your entry into this contest should look. As for the prize, please see my photos below. ![]() ![]() ![]() 3Bar Test ![]() 6Bar Test
