Advertised as Original Hands?

Thanks

Unlikely, but not the end of the world. Hands can be replaced, or sympathetically aged.

 

Crown does look original, but would need to see head-on shot to be sure. The hands are absolutely brand new luminova service replacements - and incorrect ones at that!! Omega does make service replacement hands with the correct spear-tip chronograph counterweight. Although they're still luminova. They are "original" only in the the sense that they are Omega OEM hands. I'd personally prefer a different term here, because "original" can be misleading -- "genuine" or "genuine Omega" may be more appropriate, as the adjective "original" imputes, by definition, present or existing from the beginning, first, or earliest.

I would rate this one as a strong "PASS".

 

Dude, change your avatar. John Cusak and David Hasselhoff pictures were assigned to try to embarrass members into putting their own photos in that spot. Avatars are how most members identify other members in the blink of an eye. Do you really want to be remembered as the suicidal teenager from "Better Off Dead" or the stalker from "Say Anything"?

 

Huh. And here I thought he just had good taste in '80s teen comedy actors

 

Or the esteemed Mr Cusak is in fact a member of OF, hence no need to change the avatar?
