Omega Symbol and Happy Feet

Recommended Posts

twofake

Sorry about the Noob question but I see the Omega advertising showing the Omega symbol with the toes curling up . It appears to me that the watches have the symbol with the toes flat...correct me if I am wrong?

So, is the symbol supposed to look like the advertising Omega symbol with the curled up toes or is it supposed to have flat toes on teh gen watches or have the symbols changed form vintage watches to the newer ones?

Are happy feet with the curled up toes or the flat feet Omega symbols?

If the logo is printed, it will have happy feet. If it is an applied metal logo, the feet will be flat.

Thanks Greg.

I wonder why they can't make metal symbols with curled up toes?

 

So do the gen watches have metal symbols and flat feet?

Do some gens have printe symbols?

I have to agree with your observation, it is weird that Omega use two different logos... it doesn't really make sense that they would have something different on the watch dial to what is on the box and the advertising. No surprise the rep makers can't understand the correct logo to use :-)

This ranks right up there with the 316 steel quandry!!

Anytime I need to squint, or use a loupe to discern a dial feature, my IDGAF module begins to glow....brightly...!!! :help3: :help3:

They can, they just don't for some reason.

You just need to be careful to avoid the ones with two left feet.

Imagine rolex randomly making watches that have varied amounts of points in their crown logo. Can't understand why a large company like omega would do this.

Thanks for the tip, Greg. I did not know this but will add this to my growing rep knowledge base.
