That's why for me it doesn't matter if the history is erased IF the watch is post-SuperLuminova change for Omega. The dials are not going to patina after this, and the watches are essentially modern. Pre-SuperLuminova is my personal cutoff, where Omega would replace those parts with modern ones that are not the same in design or execution as the originals. Not even caring if the history of the watch is maintained, if I sent in my Holy Grail, Omega would replace the dial with a service dial that has superluminova but is different to the original. The hands would also be service hands (different design), etc. God only knows what would happen if I sent in the 66 cal. 321 (actually, I know what would happen: the pushers would have to be replaced and re-drilled, the crown would be replaced and the wrong size, the bezel would be replaced and wrong design, the dial would be replaced and look odd due to the long indices being too thin, etc.). The watch would change, in other words.

So, for old vintage, you really are deciding about how much history you maintain from one owner to the next, but with modern, the only thing it will pick up is scratches (which the boutiques will buff out in service anyway). What do you think?

Nice! I especially like the font of the numbers...I've never seen them look like that before. Very Total Recall.

Wear it in good health, Anon! Time for me to get some rest.

Hope this thread is a good one!
