Toadtorrent Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Did you lume that yourself judging by the bottles in the back?? How did you do the pearl given the glass layer on top??? And...did you have to scrape the hands down to get enough space for the lume? It looks amazing!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwhitesox Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I think it looks fine mate...No reason to get the lume redone as you can only notice the slightly raised dots with your face up against the watch glass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stratcat Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I wouldn't sweat the dots. The lume is fantastic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymo Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Looks like a great job, I've ben looking at gen's for months and never niticed they had flat lume dots. Don't worry about it. Besides, how could anyone apply flat lume dots, it's a viscus substance and would naturally blob with surface tension. I'm really keen to give this a try myself, where can I get the super-lume paint...anyone please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poopypants Posted November 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I guess the part that this 'treatment' is cheaper than a new dial is what's really appealing! The breit & rollie dials have been killing me lately... (me = bank acct) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymo Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Having done some quick research... http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=56086&st=0 And then reading the makers web site: http://www.rctritec.com/index.php?id=8 I'd say it best to get it done prefessionally unless you have a good supply of watches to learn on, and even then it's going to take a LOT of time. By the way, the flat lume dots on the Gen is applied with a stencil and wipe process, not possible to do this in the after-market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XWORD Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Very nice lume from a noob that has been looking at lume dots on AS on this forum and others for 2 weeks straight now. I gotta get a life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
