Can't decide whether to go for it or not  :-\
I get by with the tools I've gathered up already, but its a good price .....

I bought one recently purely because I thought having pretty much everything in one box would be handy.

It is, to an extent, but sadly they have cut down the selection of items to such an extent that you now find you need other tools for most jobs. There are quite a few missing sizes that mean you have to rummage in your less organised toolbox for most jobs... IMHO

It's still a pretty good deal for someone who wants to equip themselves afresh for most jobs on an Omega, though.

I really need a torque wrench, and a set of ratchet spanners might be handy (for those areas a socket can't reach), so I'll maybe invest in these instead  :)

That box has been re arranged, again. ::)

18mm is very common on omega.

Still good value though. Tbh. :y

Trade card never works in conjunction with any other offer.
