SOH - GEN Dial swap or Fix Lume Dots

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone! I just got my bew to me SOH today and just love it!! It is the V1.5(V3) and so my only gripe really to the watch are the lume dots. Does anyone know who I can contact to get those corrected or maybe even to do a dial swap?

Thanks again RWG and thanks in advance for your replies!

Nice V1.5. All depends how much you want to put into it. A relume of existing will be less than $80. A gen dial swap will be the cost of the dial ~$300 + relume of the hands to match the new dial. If it were me I would just get a relume. Most of the modders on the various fora could handle this for you (Zigmeister, Vacuum, etc)

Agreed. Just pay to get the dial & hands relumed. Also - swap the movement out with a DG4816. It has a better date font.

The watch is currently being worked on. Getting the dial and hands relumed. Not going to swap out the movement yet. I think I'll wait on that.

Thanks for all the suggestions. It really helped me in making my decision.

Who's doing the relume? I followed krpster's route. It was his article which ultimately wow'd me in getting an SOH and so I followed his advice on just getting the dial relumed by a modder. Which modder you ask? Not sure if he wants me to disclose that, but I will definitely ask and do so and post pics once it is completed.
