Delighted to have picked up my new PO this week. Now, the bezel is orange right? All the literature says it is but so far everyone who has commented on it has said that is is red and is surprised to hear it is orange. It really doesn't bother me at all but which is it?

100% orange, full disclosure I'm from the Netherlands where the royal family has the colour in its name.

It is Orange although it is more red then previous orange highlights from Omega.

There is no question it is Orange though.

It’s like when someone asks us to custom mount something on a “white” background….ummm…which white?

It is a sort of burnt orange to me. Some of my friends say it is red to their eye from a few feet away

"Warm Red" is what we'd call it in design circles
