In Defense of Faux Lume

Yeah I think on the Ultraman it´s very good. Although on the Oris 65 it looks great. On 60th aniversary it´s a little bit to much. But I like it more and more after time 😀

The first rule of liking faux lume, is to stop calling it faux lume...it's just a different colour than white to me.

Personally, my money's on 'Ecru.'

Omega should have made the 3 pc Trilogy Set have white lume to set it apart from the individual LE production, instead of putting a numbered tramp stamp on the dial

Exceptional idea actually....gives those the option to have either color...

This is really about liking or not liking the vintage styling on new releases. Personally if done well I am a fan.

Well, I like the vintage styling of my '57. Not to everyone’s taste and I’ve yet to see another in the wild, but it does for me. 😁
