Painted the tip red myself. It’s an easy job provided you have tools and aren’t scared to open the watch. You need to figure out how to remove the stem without messing up the keyless works and after that you’re good to go.

One question about paint the tip red.. i have skyfall PO which use Miyota. As you know, this movt dont have hack feature. So the second hand keep running al the time. Once the power reserve off it stop but once you move the watch its start running again.
My question is : if i want to paint the tip red, but the second hand keep running, is it ok if i force to stop it by finger and paint the tip ? Or will it break the movement ?
Do you know about this ? Or anyone knows ?
Thank you

No idea but personally I would remove the second hand to do that. @ado213

Good advice, although it can be done on the watch if you don't want to remove it. Let the watch run down or let it down, slip a piece of folded paper under the second hand at midpoint which also protects the dial. Then off you go with a fine tip oiler and your paint.

Don't overload the oiler with paint and make sure it's a fine tip

I had the UPO version and let it go :) Bad mistake. I will get one again, I even considered Gen on that one.
According to my Omega AD, the Omega PO Casino Royale 007 2907.50.9 is hard to come by.

Actually that one would be as it is a limited edition as far as I know. For me the Casino Royale will always be the 2907.50.91. But the one you have is a Great find :)
