candide2424 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Hello, This is supposed to be a gen insert but in my opinion, the pearl looks weird. What are your thoughts? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highoeyazmuhudee Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 looks like a typical replacement lumi pearl to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanuq Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 I read that you can use alcohol to get the lume guts out. Anyone here tried that? I've been buying Yuki's empty pearls and filling them with custom tinted lacquer to match my dials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candide2424 Posted September 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 My concern is that this pearl might look weird with the glossy 5513 dial I just got ( no patina) and I prefer the old pearl version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
