    I love the fact that their 2757 version of my SMPP stepped six is sitting just behind the Neptune. That has to be the one from AJTT but the hands are wrong and they've changed the crown again to a clover from a decagonal.

    Aye...aye sir. Your watch indeed is more special and rarer than Deluxe and Grand Luxe in this museum.:thumbsup:

    As for the hands, crowns incorrect replacement, there are many of them in this museum. I believe majority of the visitor just didn't care.
    During my visit there was a group of guests (which I believe was Omega HQ guests) got a guided tour in the museum. They walked past all the cases less than 30 minutes (while it took me 4 hours to do the tour and take picture properly....and I need more time actually).
    At the end the 'vintage factory purists' are minority geek, while most are 'oh shiny' or 'oh I don't really care' type.
