Omega 167.005 - Sending to Omega for Service

Hi all,

I know this might be a touchy subject in regard to omega servicing.
I have an Omega 167.005 that I have had for a while now, and for me I think its in good enough condition for casual wear. The lugs are a bit beaten up, and sharp edges have been polished but overall ok.

The dial has started to show signs of age with the lacquer at 12-1 o'clock discoloring and also around 4 o'clock.

I want this one to be my forever watch and therefore get it back into top condition I am thinking about sending it to Omega.

Depending on stock, is it possible it could end up with a new dial? And if so would the old dial be sent back?
I know Omega has two sorts of services, a "service" and a "restoration" so not sure which one they would opt for, however, I know this will be expensive either way.

So In summary, do we know from experience if the Dial and hands would be replaced, or "refinished"? and If replaced would I receive the old ones back?

Thanks!

The main reason for doing it would be to get a new NOS dial and hands, do omega certified watchmakers still have access to parts such as dials and hands?

Interesting thanks for the info.
I've been looking for a NOS replacement online but not come across anything (and likely won't).
And honestly, If I cant get a brand new dial out of it from Omega, there's no point sending it in, its worth more in this condition than a refinished dial.

Thanks all,
I think the decision is pretty obvious with this one haha.
