Hi all,

I just picked up this beautiful 1153 which seems to be the third execution from Zurich while on my honeymoon. I am new to vintage watches and had to make sure my first vintage watch was a Heuer as I've been obsessing with them for the last couple months. I wanted to get your opinion on if this minutes hand is relumed or replaced with a new one as it seems to not match the deterioration of the hours hand. Either way I am absolutely in love with the watch and will enjoy it but just want to know.

Could have been, but at least the shade matches. Is it noticeable when on the wrist, or do you need a close-up photo to really tell the difference?

Thank you, its not noticeable but obviously it is to me because I was inspecting the watch for two whole days after getting it.
