Nope.

I also don’t think it’s redundant at all. I’m hoping to pick up a Sub Date some time this year and I’ve already got an Omega SMP Diver 300M.

Thanks man. I’ve been loving it. Wore it for a week straight. Very impressive. +1 sec / day. Seems to fit all situations. Super legible and comfortable and nice to look at. Winner for sure.

Was this modification super tedious and costly or does one need to send the watch to omega, thanks.

Very simple, plenty of YouTube videos about it.

If you don't feel comfortable, take it to a trusted watchmaker. Shouldn't take more than 10 mins.

Picked mine up yesterday I love it. +1 seconds after 24 hours. Date changes perfectly at midnight to the dot (none of my Rolexes do that), and just a stunning color. All for a significant discount below the price for one Rolex.
