    Interesting example, of a sun ‘baked’ dial

    Was the dial re-lumed by you…or by the Seller ?

    The luminous material re applied to the dial, subsequently to original manufacture…

    Is that clear enough ?

    Yes, but i don’t see it in the case of the OP’s watch? I’we seen -69’s with very light color lume even if they have been tropical. Here’s mine as a comparison with a 29.114.xxx serial.

    I have seen other tropical dials (within the typical range) with similar lume coloring. It has not been relumed, in my opinion.

    this is such an awesome looker. i have to complement you again.

    how much does something like this cost, if you don't mind me asking. i would definitely like to get a hold of one if the price is right

    Especially do I like the ”do not eat” pouch, as a gentle reminder that this chocolate is not to eat no matter how hungry you are :D

    You´re not yourself, grab a snicker :)

    At first I thought it was relumed but after showing it to expert collector friends, they concluded its not. Whether its relumed or not its just fine with me. The watch is still beautiful

    It really depends on how nice the tropical dial is and the overall condition of the watch special the DON bezel. Anywhere from $10k to $20K IMO.
