Whose restorations do you put in the "well done" category?

·Bezel is 100% redone.
Looks like a possible relume as well due to "puddles" around the hour markers.
Sweep hand is wrong for this reference.
I agree with @Vintagewtchzilla The restored bezels from Germany are far superior to Aldo's, and Rene can actually complete one within your lifetime...

Thanks for your thoughts! There are further pictures below, showing the dial closer.

·Everything points to a re-lume to me, and I think that someone damaged the dial slightly (around each lume plot) in the process of removing the old lume.

Thanks Dan. I agree regarding the re-lume. It's quite a clean job, apart from the damage or reaction against the dial. Nonetheless, I love this watch 😁

·Was looking for correct bezel examples when I came across this interesting thread. It looks like the white numbers in the bezel were “refilled” through the tiny holes drilled into the numbers? Or is that how they’re made and I only am just now noticing??
And I vote definite relume with the pinholes overemphasized by someone who knew they were maybe supposed to be there but couldn’t get them quite right; rather, they’re too defined in my opinion.
Here’s the 30 for example:

·Lovely watch! Besides Germany, we also have our own @mcgyver who does a fenomenal job at bezel restorations.

Not sure, but I think those may be bubbles, and I think they have shadows.
