Sinn U1 Rep lume quality

Recommended Posts

Was browsing and reading RWI and read complaints that of late the Sinn U1 reps were coming with green markers and had horrid grainy lume. (http://www.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/first-rep-bought-sinn-u1-54283.html)

Sure enough, received a U1 dial and it had blotches of light lime green markers and the lume was appaling compared to the rep Sinn U2. As a favour to my friend, whipped up the trusty horostick and lumed to save his poor dial. Looks much better imho than when i received it... Not sure what happened to this rep that used to be quite brilliant otb... Pics of lume before touching up are enclosed.

Hopefully, this is just a batch problem with the Sinn U1s and the quality of rep lume will improve.. otherwise it'll be such a waste of an excellent rep for a nice diver's watch.
