·Better there than in your soup. I doubt that it will do any harm, but you can certainly have a watchmaker remove it when the watch is next serviced. The real question is how it got there in the first place.

·It almost looks like a scratch in the lume, are you sure it's a hair?

·I don’t think a scratch or defect in the lume could move between the second and third pictures, so I’m assuming the poster is correct and it’s a hair or fibre.
It’s probably very annoying now you’ve seen it, but it almost certainly won’t do any actual harm to the watch.

·At this price level, a hair visible to the naked eye (assuming that's what it is) on the dial is unacceptable. On a $500 Seiko, I'll give it a pass. If you have factory warranty, I'd send it back.

··Hears dead people, not watch rotors.See if you can knock it loose so it lands on the black dial. It would become invisible.
