I dun hv the OVM. But what was described in the review, is as true to the watch itself when you place ur order straight from de or Gnomon sg.

Not really lah... Just imagine that the original lume was orange in color, then after some time it turns beige to give that vintage looks that's all...

Personally... i don't see it as too artificial wor...

Perhaps you might want to check with STEINHART direct for the availability of the dome acrylic crystal for the OVM for change? Maybe can knock off some cost away?

The thought of owning this piece into my collection had come across my mind before... but i always felt that there's something missing from the dial, just couldn't live without the dates.

I saw two pieces of these sold on sgroc - $500 and $550, both by the same seller... personally I like it, for the symmetry of the dial. :D
