    I've had several mods done on various watches in the past but this is the first Omega that has been altered, I really think it looks better than the OEM bezel.

    Here is a PO that I missed out on but I know the guy that bought it, if and when it goes up on the block, I have first right of refusal.

    I prefer the black bezel and black dial. The extent to my modifying goes as far as using non-OEM straps.

    I'm building one off a brand new, blue ceramic SMPc case and a wave dial:

    I think I saw you post this elsewhere, I think it'll look great. Which style of handset will you be using?

    I posted the pictures in WUS. I intent to use the correct hands of an SMPc (picture below):

    which have the blue / green lume combination

    The case /dial assembly will look like this at night:

    Will use an Omega 1120 movement as was not able to find a 2500 for it. (different enlargement ring needed, among other things)

    My favorite mode is the Planet Ocean bezel on the SMP 2254.50.
