Howdoo and welcome to what is perhaps the best place for Omega info on the web.  If you have a wee search around the FAQ's and maintenance guides, thers loads of good info there....   Thumbs Up!

Main one is to ensure the timing belt and tensioners have been replaced at 40k miles or 4 years, no exceptions.  It will let go (search genchat for JamesCDX sad tale) and cost you dearly if not done.....
