·Building a CK2998-1 out of my 2012 FOIS, would prefer a base 1000 bezel but there are no rerelease of it. Does anyone know if the new bezel would fit and if so what the part number is?

·black aluminum insert found on the CK2998-1
I see , mixed up the base 1000`s there...., sorry.
Black ones only aftermarket i think, those from Spiralwinder look pretty good.

·I think it is very nice, what I do not like about it is that the hand for the seconds-subdial is different than the ones for the minute/hour subdials. Took this picture when I visited the Omega Shop here in Stockholm/Sweden:
My watch (to the right) is a CK2998-5 so it is not the original FOIS but it is close to 😀

The idea is the minute, hour, and seconds hands are alpha hands while the chrono hands (chronograph and minute and hour subdial hands) are white. The hands are matched to their function.

·The idea is nice, but for some people, me included, mixing the shape just does not work. I would prefer only color-matched hands with the same shape. Maybe the problem for me is I don't like the alpha hands in the first place 😀

·I don’t like that the main hands on the FOIS do not have similar amounts of lume. The hands don’t look like they are part of the same pair.

·Well, just change the hands ... plenty choice with either Tr/Lu/Ba style hands.
