Because the EW is faux patina, it uses the same greenish tinted lume as the original

It may, but then you’d lose that lovely vintage style EW logo

Also, the adjustment only allows for about 2mm (if it’s the same amount as the 3861 bracelet).

Trust me, I’ve thought of it.

However, I just don't like this execution of it. The hue is too dark and too brown.

For me, seeing it in person changed EVERYTHING.

With the gray-blue, the domed crystal, those hands and the EW bracelet, the whole package comes together beautifully, including the lume color. The sunburst of the dial is very subtle and not very noticeable, but it is there.

A very chic and elegant sports watch dripping with history and featuring Omega’s modern movement excellence. I’m a fan. The micro-adjustment clasp is a bonus.

Would I have preferred the look of the 321’s clasp and exhibition back? Yes…. But those quibbles don’t turn me off. YMMV.

What about the price?.

Another new version of a special version? I thought the previous fois with the leather strap was the one? Is this a trick to sell something at Omega? Dont know about this one. Will they come with an even more correct special version in 5 years?

It is most definitely an attempt by Omega to get you to by something. A trick? That’s funny. They likely will come out with an updated version in the future in an attempt to *gasp* sell more products. Would you prefer they let the current collection become stale and then cease operations entirely? Absolutely bizarre line of thinking.
