Excellent outcome! Congrats FYNW!!! Shame about the lume in the hands but whats left on the dial markers looks fabulous.
Thanks! FYNW = 4 your new watch? or = ?
yes on the dial is also still some lume material / "dust"
A good friend of mine told me he can collect this, also whats left in the minute hand and then mix it with fresh radium, binder and "color" and finaly relume these hands to give them the same patina like the aged dial markers. Not many dare to risk that kind of work and definitely have to use a special equipment, mask etc.
