    Good evening OF.

    I am thinking of purchasing an Omega Seamaster Trilogy reissue with the intention to modify the hour hands.

    I have a few questions regarding this:

    1) anyone done it before?

    2) how hard would it be to find such an hour hand / or to get it off another modern seamaster model if there's such a thing?

    3) Possible lollipop second hands too?

    I dont quite like the broad arrow hands (its a personal preference) and much prefer the look of this [​IMG]

    Seems like someone has already done it with the lollipop hands. Screenshot_20201020_163254.jpg

    I was thinking about doing the same. Is there a Lolipop service hand provided by Omega or something similar?

    I wonder is the hand needed to be modified before it was fitted to the trilogy watch?

    Just checked, the Spectre runs on Cal 8400/8500 .... so I'm not entirely sure if the hands can fit a Cal 8806.... (that's what i discovered so far...)

    I don't know I am afraid...I based my statement on recollection of a post by LewisWatchCo with a modded SM300Trilogy with this hand, which I now can not find (so suspect it may have been pulled).

    I really want to do this mod. Spending less than half of what I would for the specter with the lollipop look would be sweet. Really hoping to confirm it can be done ::book::
