    Spotted this 145.012 on eBay. It has a replacement bezel and hands, case looks a bit polished. Seller states the dial is original and not refinished. What is the story with this lume?? It looks like a funky neon color, I would guess relume? What does everyone think? More generally, are there any giveaways to spot a relumed dial? Does tritium ever age this color?

    Thanks as always for the insight!!

    This is the only marker I can see clearly.

    Hahahaha

    Is it an older '67? Meaning stamped '67 but really left the Omega factory later. '68s sometimes are seen with that slight greenish type hue, I think. :thumbsdown:
