alvinado Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 Modds done to it 1) Superlume 2) Matte and textured the dial to a great finish 3) Marker colors are off white and not yellowish like rep dial. Before Modding After Modding One more shot! Looks great right! Video showing rep lume vs watchlume's lume Left is W@tchlume dial, Right is rep dial, see the difference! What do you guys think!

Whatever123 Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 The lume looks very good to me! That dial texture is interesting - but it's not like the gen, or is it just on the pics? Looks a bit grainy. How did you do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks a bit grainy. How did you do that? Yes it is not like the gen, but somehow i think it even looks more "exoensive" this way. I used a basic spray can and lightly spray to create the texture, if you spray normally, will get a flat matte instead of a texture matte.

Or did you re-write it? Looks perfect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
