·Hey Ash. Aren't the Flightmaster dials only FAP issue??
I thought the PAF had Seamaster dials?
I bought that dial local to me, a guy phoned me up asking if I’d be interested in a sm300 dial and a flightmaster dial. I assumed he was taliking about a 70’s flightmaster so wasn’t interested in that but I was interested in the 300 dial of course. When I got to his house the 300 dial turned out to be a super luminova service dial but I was blown away by that FAP dial! How it ended up in a rural village in the ass end of the UK I’d love to know.

·i have a good idea, how that happened: i`ve seen a few without outside back engraving. nicked from the airforce and " shaved " to be untraceable. then replaced the dial with a Railmaster dial and voila : the common Railmaster created, which was easier to sell in the late 90`s. kind regards. achim

·Just got a new iPhone and I was thinking that would be interesting to look at that relumed dial ... now ... just want to find the artist who did this 😁
Comparing with a 14755 dial :
Pretty good job..

·it really is a nice looking watch, and yes, even under a 15x loupe, it looks legit... I'll probably regret sending it back... 🤔

·I hear that all the time, but I'm pretty skeptical about that happening...

it does absolutely BUT you will never be happy with a questionable lume that you have to explain... just my thinking.
or it has to be that cheap that you can simply wear as a nice beater and don't care
