  • how to mantain Omega red box?

    does your Omega red box crumble into pieces?
    happens to my 1st and 2nd Omega's boxes... i got fed up with the first box and so i threw away cos it crumbled and made a mess :P

    Any advice on how to keep it in pristine condition and still looks good?

    TIA!

    Its synthetic leather hence easily deteriorate under singapore climate - hot and humid
    One way is keep the presentation box in cool dry environment eg in a drybox

    Doesn't happen to boxes that use genuine leather

        Did you add any drying agent together with the box?
        Mine ok after 4 years, i add silica gel into the box and wrap with plastic bag.

                  My box also deteriorated quite badly... Omega such a big brand should provide at least a nice wooden box!

                      AP and panerai boxes are neatly done
                      so are rolex boxes
                      omega and breitling should follow suit

                        I have a love-hate relationship with rolex, i hate the prices but love the pieces..

                          just to share my personal experience as mine is put in sealer's bag and then left it untouched in a dry box ... box is still in good condition after ten years and counting ...

                              I recall having seen people selling in the Garage Sales sections. Try searching there? If not, some of the forum advertisers may have. Contact them?
