does this watch seem kosher to you guys?

so I guess it might not be ideal for a self-gift eh?

I wouldn't buy that with somebody else's money. Take a look on the sales forum here for better options.

That dial is about as kosher as a pork roast. 😵‍💫 🤦

I've got to say that in my ignorance I assumed this was from a particularly playful era in Omega design.

This was funny. I started reading the post and I hadn't scrolled down far enough to see most of the dial, this was all I could see:

So I'm reading, and wondering about the OP's first Omega, planning to look up his first thread. And then I finished reading and scrolled down a little and ... BAM! ... my head literally snapped back into the wall, I blurted out "oh my god", and started giggling uncontrollably.

No worries. It's better that you asked before you bought it, and took the small amount of criticism. If you had paid and received it already, we would have really given you a hard time! 😜

A question: you said you "last appeared on this site" before a previous purchase that we helped you with, yet you only have 4 posts that are all in this thread. Did you reregister under a new screen name?

We'll be happy to help you vet your purchases. Let's see a photo of your first Omega.

What made it so funny was just the way I had happened to scroll down exactly to the point before I could see the pink part of the dial and it was looking good so far. So it just really took me by surprise when I scrolled slightly further. 😀

The ref 2640 you showed originally is actually a great Omega reference with a largish case, interesting lugs, good movement, etc. Some have two-tone "sector" dials, but the color contrast is obviously more of a subtle tone-on-tone. A better example of that reference would be a great addition to your collection.
