    Hello,

    the ship on this dial is not from omega or? is it desireable or somekind of "joke"? the seller claims that its rare and there is also a mickey mouse version. i asked dr. google but couldnt find more information...

    the watch is a 551 cal with 160.005 ref or 167.005 (i may have missread it in the bad light)

    thanks

    Oh, I'd say that is indeed a rare one.

    A Flagship Constellation! Crossing the boundaries of competition, Longines loans their 3 mast Argosy logo to Omega for a lone pie pan dial rendition! :p

    ...... hope it peels off. ::facepalm2:::confused:

    Oh my, who would do something like that. ::censored:: Just because it is rare doesn't mean it is any good. You could paint your 10 dollar Casio with green and yellow stripes and call it rare too.

    If you like it, then it is desireable (to you) but it is certainly not original. I think it looks awful :)

    It's a custom dial made to a specific person's specifications. I'm sure it's rare, probably the only one.

    Some may find it attractive, others not so much.

    Sorry guys, but this watch has absolutely nothing to do with pirates.::facepalm2::

    It is the Omega "Santa Maria" limited edition. :thumbsup:

    Released just in time for Columbus Day (October 12th)! ::psy::

    Hey @Togri v. 2.0 - how did you get stuck to that fly strip? Did the nurse take that picture before they peeled it off? Bet that hurt! :eek::taunt:

    Yeah, we vegged. We need an alarm or something.

    You'd think they should - at the very least - have had the decency to desecrate a Seamaster with such vandalism?!

    Very long winded design and carnival cruise ship colours, but I image some speciality designs could considered desirable.
