Luminous hands

Hi I have a 2016 Formula 1 and just recently the luminous part of the hour hand came away from the hand. I am out of warranty but was wondering if anyone else has experienced this and if so was it covered under a general warranty? If not would anyone have any suggestions other than returning it for new hands? Many thanks for your help

I know that @Aquagraph has a Formula 1 that came back from service by TAG Heuer and the lume on one of the hands had fallen off. So I guess these things happen.

Regarding warranty, your watch will no longer be covered by warranty considering its age.

If you don't want to send it to TAG, perhaps a local watchmaker could open it up for you and just remove the lume bit that fell off.

My tritium hands on my Kirium got replaced at service because they were cracking (in 2019 1st service after 20 years), SL hands were charged for €45.
