This looks amazing. Is this the new fois dial?

A little while back I had the idea of putting a 321 into my Trilogy Speedy (!), but before I could quite get to the finish line, I decided to sell my Trilogy (still available). I sourced an Omega pre-professional service dial (with the 321-compatible larger dial feet) + an Omega 3594.50 (broad-arrow) handset, both of which were RE-LUMED with an "aged" superluminova look that is perhaps somewhere in between the darker Trilogy color and the lighter modern Ed White color; quite nice I think! The subregister hands were also painted white to match the Trilogy style. Thoughts?!

Looks good to me, but a pity the service dials dont have the "step" . To retrofit a 321 you will need a different movement ring/holder i think.

They do not, but nor does the Trilogy, so I suppose it is a good match! Re: the holder, you might be right, and the 321 I sourced came with one either way. I also wonder if a new stem would be needed...
(generic Trilogy photo included to show non-step dial).

i think only the length may be a variable, if it is to long it is easy to file or cut off . That Trilogy is very nice,

Ha but that's just a generic one, in good lighting I suppose! Here's mine with the Spiralwinder sapphire caseback that I wanted to mod with the 321/dial/hands...
