Hi chaps
Had anyone noticed this redial design, it's pretty awful with the massive font, and bright orange hands but I've seen then on the bay and at auctions and they have fetched strong money. The one in the pic is already up to £701 bidding.

Someone is repainting a ton of old Omegas this way and seems to be doing pretty well. Let's hope he doesn't fool too many beginner collectors!

Cheers
HH

I hope they didn't blow up a Ranchero to make this.

You mean it’s not original? 😲 I’ll have to cancel my bid 😁

If they are repainting Omegas that were already badly redialed, then this can only go in our favour. Makes redials easier to recognise... a dark knight per se

But If they even touch a clean Omega.... HERESY!

These are truly hideous from an aesthetic point of view.

That one at Auction sold for £550 plus commission. Lets hope people realise this trickery soon and stop buying them.

It's nice that you still have hope. We've been watching this schlock get sold at stupid prices for the better part of 10 years now.
