How to recognise one

Five marks make the look. The count says whether the one homage keeps each one.

Triangle at 12
A lumed triangle replaces the 12 and points to the centre of the dial.
Numerals at every hour
Large white Arabic numerals mark all twelve hours, with a triangle where the 12 would be.
Railway minute track
A thin railway track with dots at the five-minute points runs round the dial edge.
Lumed sword hands
Broad lumed hands taper to a point over a plain black dial.
Plain steel case and crown
A matte steel case with a plain crown and no guards.

Each close-up covers about 12.5 mm of watch, using the listed case width and estimated photo edges.

Specifications for Omega RAF 6B/159 re-cased pilot watch model scope
Specification	Value	Sources and notes
Case width	36 mm	Omega RAF 6B/159 re-case, c.1956 \| Waecce One cited source. Single successful page body supports this candidate-scoped value.
Lug to lug	46 mm	1956 Omega RAF 6B/159 re-case owner listing \| Omega Forums One cited source. A 1956 exact-specimen Omega Forums listing explicitly labels approximately 46 mm lug-to-lug. Waecce’s 46.8 mm end-to-end claim remains separately recorded as case_length_mm because it does not define endpoints.
Thickness	13 mm	shop.hodinkee.com One cited source. HODINKEE lists 13 mm thickness for the exact 1956 re-cased Omega 6B/159 specimen; no competing exact-specimen thickness is body-read. Crystal is plexiglass.
Lug width	17 mm	shop.hodinkee.com One cited source. Hodinkee listing specifies 17 mm fixed bars for its 1956 re-case; do not generalize to earlier 6B/159 cases.
Movement calibre	Omega 30T2 SC	Omega RAF 6B/159 re-case, c.1956 \| Waecce One cited source. Single successful page body supports this candidate-scoped value.
Case length	46.8 mm	Omega RAF 6B/159 re-case, c.1956 \| Waecce One cited source. Waecce reports 46.8 mm End to End. Since the page does not define this as a lug-tip measurement, this is selected as case length only.
Width with crown	39.2 mm	Omega RAF 6B/159 re-case, c.1956 \| Waecce One cited source. Single successful page body supports this candidate-scoped value.
