A NOS aftermarket maybe: the hour markers are painted and don't have lume, the Omega text font is wrong (the G), the seconds subdial shouldn't have the circles pattern, the print is too shiny, and the 12 looks kinda wonky.

 

I vote redone/new produced

Good sir, I would like to formally submit a dibs on this beauty.

well then

 

I'd try and call dibs on all three of these, but something tells me I couldn't afford one of them

 

Ranchero 2996-1 (center seconds) leading the way to the Red Carpet
