 I certainly can't quible with anything you have said regarding the lumn. Omega does have damn good lumn as does I'm other brands I haven't seen. But, Watchboy and I have also had some disappointments too. The Marcello C I just got is borderline. Not great, but not horrible either. I have had one nice watch where the lumn was gone almost completey after 10 minutes. I don't own it anymore. :)

All other aspects of the particular Marcello C I have are top notch. Maybe not as good as my old Rolex, but close enough for me. And, my old GMT master didn't have a peek-a-boo back (and it had virtually zero lumn, 1987 model). The bracelet on the Marcello C is better than the one on my 1987 GMT, the case is about the same (seems so), but the Rolex had a much smoother turning bezel. Crowns are almost identical cosmetically.
