Omega 8900
ConfirmedThe successor to the 8500 in the Planet Ocean and Aqua Terra. The independently adjustable hour hand is a functional test an examiner can run on the bench: the hour hand should jump in one-hour steps without stopping the seconds. A watch whose hour hand cannot be set independently is not carrying an 8900.
