    It is a decent relume, but those green center hr and min hands have to go. It all depends on the price.

    Are you saying dial has been relumed? Or purely hands?

    "easy to age" means to color the lumi or the glue used for reluming in order to obtain nice matching patina of the hands.

    Pity they did not match the relume color instead on the dial.
    I would not mind a relumed dial. Eventually lume material gets old and fragile, and then it starts disolving... Not good for the movement.

    How does this guy knows it was a scammer. Ebay gives buyers up to 10 days to pay and this was relisted 12 hours later after the auction ended. In my experience this guy some people shill bidding for him or he's doing it himself. Way 2 fishy to ever want to buy from this person.

    I emailed this seller earlier today for a bin price, they gave me a screenshot of the scam to clear up any issues about relisting...seemed legit? I just asked for possible bin to save relist and no reply! ::screwloose::

    I believe the listing is from a former omega forum member.
