Alter many hours of studying, thinking,.. and after many months of waiting… I would like to introduce you my Franken Omega Seamater Professional Black.

As you know, it is impossible to get a decent replica of this watch.

Main features:

Genuine Omega dial.
Helium valve in the correct position
Hands with correct length and re-lumed to match the gen dial.
Chieftang double AR (on a mineral crystal)
Correct bracelet, pins, no screws.
After market bezel insert

It is not perfect, but I think it is much better than the reps offered by our dealers. It is not easy to detect that it is a rep. The weak point is the pearl; I am still looking for a better insert and pearl.

And here a picture of my Omegas, all of them with Chieftang AR.

I love my Omegas.
