So, after working on other people's watches, I had to modify one of my own. I'll let the pix do the talking...... (all pix taken with my iPhone, so they are not top quality, but this thing looks GREAT!!! Notice in the first pic, you can see the "rough" finish of the Lume on the numbers. So no photo trix here, just pure, awesome, bright as fuck LUME!!!!)

After looking atthe pix, the DOTS atthe hr markers look half green and half blue, but they are def blue in person.

 

Also, I am gonna do some sick shit to the hands of this watch, just wait :facepalm:

 

Also, I am not done cleaning up cleaning up the dial of the dried lume dust, so please bear with me, this was a 30 min job, in my buddies garage cause I was making this waterproof for him......

thanks mate, but that isnt the mixable powder, its the pre-mixed stuff :P

 

makes it EASY to use, cause the mix is PERFECT. only catch is you have to shake it every few minutes.

 

i only use this on MY watches, the powder and binder i use for others cause i know they want the "gen" stuff (per se)

Mikey,

You are killing me dude. I want my DSSD back so badly now, it's almost worse than waiting for a new watch. "is it done yet?" , "is it here yet?" I don't know which is worse… :)

 

This stuff looks great. I can't wait to see my bag of pieces looking like a watch again. Good stuff bro. Really nice!

 

Cheers,

Peter
