Its probably best described as overlooked, from an era of Omega's history that isn't really celebrated that much. Its not that its a rare watch, there are plenty of them around but most of them are either still being worn by their original owners or sitting in drawers as watches like Speedmaster Pros, Constellation Piepans, Seamaster 300s and the like are the Omegas that people are interested in.
The best way to describe it is its a bit like the Toyota Paseo. Paseo's were not originally cheap, never made in huge numbers, but not rare either, only made for a few years and then discontinued. Its not a bad car, but if you're buying a 1990s Toyota 2 door coupe, you want a Supra, not a Paseo, and as a result its just not well known or really discussed.
You've got a solid daily wear watch, its an automatic which is great, and the bracelets on these models are reasonably comfortable, so you'll enjoy it, its just not a headline watch for Omega, and slips through the cracks a bit in the collector market.
