    Just to clarify, I find it odd that non-luminous hands are being paired with hollow numerals, which were normally filled with luminous material.

    Was just thinking how much better it would look with spade hands and no inside 24hr track... original is always superior isn't it.

    So if Omega says they can repair movements up to 20 years beyond discontinuation of production with spare parts, how would this work on a 100+ year old movement if parts are needed? Will they fabricate parts for repair if necessary?

    It's a $120k watch, I'm sure whoever buys them will be able to foot the bill for custom-made parts if necessary

    You'd think that, but we have people buying $10,000 Rolexes complaining about a $75 bracelet link
