Looks Super!!...nt

In Response To: Image revised based on your comments! ()

: Based on the comments so far, nobody seems to find the current Pro
: inadequate. I do like the current Pro a lot - that's what I own. But the
: bolder look of the GMT/150th appeals to many people too. Sounds like Omega
: should keep both designs and use them on different Seamaster variations.

: To be a little more fair (especially after I saw the image on a different
: monitor) I've given the current Pro a little more size on the round and
: triangular markers and added the thin traces on the sides of the hour and
: minute hands.

: If you haven't noticed, this is a computer generated image. The 'brightness'
: of the glow is identical on each dial illustration. So any apparent
: difference in brightness is because of the difference in size of the
: markers. That's exactly how the difference would appear in the dark.
