Expert Advise Needed Please

[UncleJay]

I've been hunting for my Easter Eggs this weekend as I'm sure some of you know. We'll no damn eggs, but PLENTY of watch stuff. I found a case with some dials from my Rolex days. The Sub dial needs re-lume, so I need someone who can do it right. Also, I may go ahead and finish off. Do you think it would go well in a Bond case? The pins are between 11 and 12, and 5 and 6 so what movement do I need? Someone help please!

On the relume and good skills with Rolex movements that is an easy one - go with Ziggy. PM me if you are looking for his info. He has done innumerable rep and gen rolexes including his own genuine 5508 and a number of other folk's priceless gen vintage rolexes. He is the only one who I know who can match lume to aged tritium both in terms of color/ aging and that incredibly vague glow - if you know what I mean. There are other skilled folks in Europe but for you it should be a no-brainer.

UJ,

IMHO, the only person I would let near that Rx dial is Ziggy!

You may have to wait a while, and stand in a bit of a queue,but it will be worth it.

Will let our more knowleageable Rx wWIS chime in for the other answers.(See Kruz has beaten me to the punch-Again !)

Your sub dial is intended for a 5512 model with the calibre 1560.

IMO it doesn't need refinishing, just leave it as is.

I would be glad to buy it from you if you don't use it

Regards
