·It’s time to spritz my Seamaster. I’ll service the movement and do a minor clean of everything else. The challenge I foresee is the crumbling lume on the hands. What should I replace it with? I don’t want empty hands.
This watch is 61 years old, so none of the lume has been active for several half-lives, either on the hands or the dots on the dial. I have some lume compound, but I don’t want to use that. I want to re-lume with non-lume, if that makes sense. Anyone else done this? What should I use with the binder? Chalk?
