we should collect serials ...would be interesting to see if it a change or random.

 

Apparently some have bicolor hands, just like the Seamaster ceramics.

 

looks like all green on mine. #1496

 

Minute hand looks blueish on that picture

i suppose. looked pretty uniform in person.

 

I spoke with my OB and they checked with corporate but didn't really get any "official" response.

 

looked at it more, and the hour/minute hands definitely look bluer.

here's another shot.

 

The hands look blue to me...

 

very weird....

 

Sometimes, poor QC translates to big $$$ later on. 220 bezel's anyone? Looks like in the future we will see:

"For sale: 2016 Omega Speedmaster CK2998 with the very rare Blue/Green lume, only $22,000"

 

Possibly - but how long does the modern lume material last / remain active? The Tritium lume on my pieces from the 1960's doesn't really glow anymore.

 

weird stuff with these watches...

 

All green on mine.

 

Looks like the Chinese supplier failed miserably on this purchase order and Omega didn't realise it soon enough to return the batch and ask for a refund before they shipped the watches out to customers.

 

Im sure if you open up the engine, it is made by seagull

 

Beautiful timepiece, so is it all green, or green and blue hands ?

 

Mine (226X of 2998) has a blueish minute hand; reminds me that combination on the ceramic SMP's

strange how they did this. Would think it was on purpose if they were all the same but seems to be random
