Hi. Just bought a Seamaster 300 226450 today. Does anyone know When seamasters sent from fully lumen sword hands to hollow ones?

What do you mean? The 2254/2264 used sword hands from the start in 1997 until it was phased out in 2008. The earlier 2531 Bond design used skeleton hands from launch in 1993 and its descendants still do. Different watches using the same basic case design.

Aha, thanks! Thought the skeleton hands (thanks for letting me know the term) took over for the sword hands.

The skeleton hands look good but don’t actually work as well in the dark as the solid fill sword hands so don’t be sorry you got the 2264.
