Well, I guess as this watch is somewhat a failure from Omega's side (a win to some collectors of course
) they did not want to use more time correcting minor details such as this.
To me it seems that it is a fault in the production. The layers of paint have not been put on there with enough care (or unwillingness to look into details
)

In this photo you can see that the white paint has rounded edges.
- I think maybe the red paint was applied first.
- Then it has dried and then the white paint was added (maybe) explaining the round corners of the white checks.
- At last the black indices on top
To explain why the white paint has not come together, maybe the manufactures did not add enough white paint.
So when doing the painting, there was not enough white to cover half the red.
If someone at the factory had noticed, they might have changed the amount of white color?! Or did they just not have the time or finesse
Just my theory
