Hi,
I have a 2531.80.00 from 1997 (confirmed by e-mail from Omega to be from may) and the hour markers on the dial and hands are looking yellowish!
That would be natural if the luminous used on the dial was Tritium, but... Omega told me it's Superluminova! And it really gets charged when i put the watch under light!
How can it happen if they say superluminova will never age???
Great site!
Cheers,
JB
PS: another weird thing - the bezel seems to have faded a bit between the 40-50 markers... like a stain. But no, it's not a stain!
