What is it? Worst dial of all time or a thing of rare beauty (to someone)?

    I can't say I've ever seen anything quite like this before...but I am a relative newcomer and so perhaps I should appreciate it for the thing of rare beauty and worth every penny of the £2000 asking price. But what is it? Apart from pig ugly, I mean. Did the design department at Omega have a collective bad day? Ugghh.
    The seller's profile (0=sales 149-buys) suggests that they themselves probably don't know, either.

    What is it? It's what we call fraud. Report drill.

    Someone tried to knock off the original Co-Axial Limited Edition, which is actually quite a nice watch:

    I know a guy that actually has the white gold version and paired it with the stainless steel version of the modern DeVille brickwork bracelet and it looked epic!
