Put my SRPB on black mesh.
I've had trouble noticing any glow of the lume, so tonight I did the job properly. It seems my living room lights aren't strong enough to light it up, so I gave it a flashlight up close. Can't take a good lume pic, though it looks good in reality.

An LED flashlight gives off the part of the spectrum that best energizes the lume.

Been hiding in the not sure what to do with this next category for far too long . So I've decided what to do next , it's off to my watch Doctor in the morning for a overhaul .I'm not bothered about the dial degradation & pretty sure the second hand isnt correct, but I really don't care as it's got character enough already for a 54 yr old . And that is the magic that keeps drawing me in deeper & deeper .

Incoming: Seiko 6458 from 1981. I usually don’t go for quartz, but this vintage mid-size orange diver is a charmer. Time keeping seems strong and the original strap is in better shape than I thought it would be. I’ll soon get a new battery and see if I can get the crystal polished.

Nice camera work. You caught the light on the dial perfectly. Shrp clean image. A advertisement should look that good.

Going slightly off thread here alert ,so apologies if your easily offended . Can't help but admire the quality of this Citizen 62-6198 from March 74 , Seikos seem to have moved up the ladder in the watch lovers world & rightly so , but some of the offerings Citizen have produced deserve some recognition also .And the 62-6198 certainly doesn't look out of place with its close cousins to me .

True Citizen deserves some more love outside of the bullheads and Ecodrives.

What does zimbe mean?
It seems to mean Africa, in some way, but this is for the Thai market.

I think it’s japanese for “whale”
