Omega Aqua Terra White Dial - Blue Markers/hands

[ryaku]

I'm considering this purchase but i'm still unsure on which version i like best.

Honestly i like em all but particularly i love the blue hands/ markers version and i'll get it immediately if i was sure the blue shade was correct.

Perhaps i'm mistaken and difference is the result of pics but in replica version blue seems different from genuine shade, genuine looks like darker.

I have an Omega Aqua Terra XL with blue hands and markers for sale which I got from TWG. I can't guarantee the blue is accurate, but TWG is pretty reliable in this regard. See my post under Watch Sales: 6 Swell Watches.

The rep's blue looks lighter to me too. I cannot verify in person vis a vis the Omega, but I've seen dozens of Mullers with "blued" hands and the rep's hands are too light 100% of the time. I believe this is because the "blued" parts on the reps are not actually blued, but painted with some sort of kids'-finger-paint-looking laquer. I bet the markers and hands on the OEM AquaTerra are blued and the rep's markers and hands are painted w/ the same [censored] they use on the Mullers.

Is this another intentional flaw? Since it's impossible to believe that the correct shade of blue paint is not available in China, it makes you wonder...
