Hi guys!
Last week I purchased this speedy.
All appears to be correct,only the Plexi is aftermarket for sure because because it’s hasn’t an omega logo in the center.
My question is if is a relumed candidate or no?.
Case back is correct for period and pushers,crown and bezel as well.
Waiting for your comments.
Best regards,
Álvaro

Are you asking if it’s been relumed or if you should have it relumed?

Has it been relumed? No.

Should you relume it? Depends on your balance point between originality and living with those markers that have lost part of their lume.

There is a third way, have the lume touched up. That way you keep the original lume but it looks better.

A new Plexi is for sure , but continues nice with this original lume .
I will think about relumed or no.

Hour hand seems incorrect for this reference.

Yes, I know . But asking price was very interesting.

I'm not sure I understand the OP's question, but the lume appears to be missing on most of the inner part of the dial, inside the step.

You state in your first post "All appears to be correct,only the Plexi is aftermarket for sure because because it’s hasn’t an omega logo in the center." -> then you shouldn't be surprised if fellow members point out other things that are not correct
