    A better photo would help. The hour hand doesn't look right and the minute hand is not displayed at all. The sweep second hand is correct. The dial looks like an early pro dial and the bezel is correct. Is it a 105.012-65?

    Question, would you guys re-lume the hour and minute hands on this or leave it? I'm interested to hear what the collectors have to say about this.

    I don't like the idea of the rest of that lume falling out, so I'd have somebody fill it with appropriately stained new stuff.
