But Omega kept iterating, bringing affordability to wrists without compromising mechanical quality. However, this piece is not about that. The star of the show here is the blue dial with its spots of copper-toned patina. As it sometimes happens with blue dial pigment of the time, this unit has decided to patina, but in a unique way that’s scattered across the dial in pleasing patterns… abstract “art” that only the passage of time can craft. This is going to be a real treat for vintage connoisseurs who appreciate the wabi-sabi nature of beautifully patinated vintage watches, standing out as unique pieces you’d never find someone else wearing.
