Hi, I was wondering if this dial configuration is correct for the Omega Marine CK679? I haven't seen this version before with round plots. Would appreciate the members thoughts. Cheers Russell.
I looked in "Omega Designs", which has a number of Marine pictures and none of them have this dial. Might not be original. Tom
Hi Tom, I have seen three separate CK679's with this exact dial configuration from searches on the net. That's why I have put it to the forum. Cheers Russell.
There is some more info regarding this model on the OF: https://omegaforums.net/threads/omega-marine-ck679-1075-usd-a-bargain-or-not.74719/
Newbie here - excuse any potential mistakes. I did some research on Omega 679 mod dials. My conjecture is these mods are fairly old, and may have been done for 679 owners who wanted a lume option. I found the same green-spotted dot dial above for sale today on ebay. I also found the following examples: A different mod with possible radium arms and hands.

If true, this watch might be potentially hazardous when taking the mechanism out of the case; with possible exposure to radium dust. https://www.vintagewatchstraps.com/luminous.php
