路G'day !
This time let's have a look to the notorious Speedy Tuesday.
It is a gorgeous watch and it gets a lot of wristime these days.
You know I love some nice close ups 馃槈, but bear in mind it points out every microscopic defect of your watch !
Dramatic for a vintage but also for a modern watch like this one
Now some pics :
Old style applied metal logo with luminova inscription
The subdials :
The serifs are pretty strong :
Funnily, we can notice some variation between the secondary subdials indexes of the three subdials:
3 h (minutes)
6h (hours)
9h (seconds)
Each subdial hand is slightly off-centered to the printed luminescent concentric circles of the subdials
Notice the little filament at 10 sec. of the 9h subdial
It is actually attached to one of the luminova concentric circle and come in contact with the subdial hans at each rotation...
It might be a printing defect of the polymeric material onto the dial
Now the hands :
The contrast of the polished old style Omega logo with the crown brushed stainless steel is beautiful :
The engraved Omega symbol on the hesalite :
Another few shots :
Lugs and case are nicely brushed.
All this looks very sensitive to scratching
A very nice watch overall
Cheers !

路The serifs are pretty strong :
That distinguishes a cheapy windows system front an expensive professional font e.g. from Adobe 馃槈.

路Now a few pics of a 105.003 Speedy with a tropical°raded dial.
According to SP101, this dial is illustrated as " faded dial, but blotchy and not good" but I like it very much

I like to call it my chocolate fudge speedy, as suggested by a fellow OF member
Happy Speedy Tuesday to all !

路Here's another 105.003-65 with a pulsometer bezel:
I had doubts that the dial would be relumed.
Each of the plots has some whitish powder/fungus next to it.
From these macros, I would say the dial is not relumed considering the degradation (small local lume color variation) and the consistent granulometry.
Any other opinion more than welcome

路I am slowly getting into macro photography for my watches. I am having a really hard time with lighting. Seems to never be enough, even if I play around with the ISO on the camera. Still a noobie with photography, but anyone will to share their lighting setups?
