At first glance it seems that the subdials were brown painted originally and not have the brown aged color of some Speemasters. Let me find out what really happens with this brown color and I will let you know. I use this watch often and people are always in love.
All the best!

Great examples, Kyle! Here is my old Seamaster… But the best example I have is a JLC E 875 - Chocolate. Hope you Omega guys don’t mind a JLC here. Macro of the dial - original dark blue. Best Blomman...

I was told the patina on this Ref. 2179 (1944) is due to water damage. The gasket is totally gone so this explanation makes sense to me & could be, I suppose, true. Here are the pic's. (Sorry, but the camera I have won't do any better.) Sharky409 This...
