Are you gonna stick to the SL hands, I had them replaced to the tritium ones again by a local watchmaker as they weren't in bad shape (cracked but that was stabilized by him).

 

I hadn't thought about it... er, probably just stick with it I guess. The old ones are pretty murky.

 

Yeah they do look murky,surprising, mines were 20 years old and looked clean, any chance yours have been affected by water ingression?

 

I believe the quote did say that there had been water ingression into the case, so that's probably why.

 

Aha understood. regarding the bezel they likely just put SL lume in the original bezel, mine was equally bright as the SL hands they installed.

 

Yes, it looks about the same... I can't remember if it was any good before it went. I find the bezel pips seem to last better than the dial lume on quite a few watches.

 

Not my doing I hasten to add! I bought it last year...

 

Love this photo, can't believe it was two years ago already!

 

Obviously perfect then for a C11 forum meetup at TH HQ in 2021

 

Wouldn't that be something special!

 

Feels like I've been nagging David about it for years now. I will continue lobbying for it

 

You could drive down and pick up a Carrera on the way...

 

Yes I would definitely drive! Stop for cheap alcohol and watches while passing Germany

 

It's nearly lunch time. That's making me very hungry all of a sudden!

 

Hmmm in what way does that belong in the Tag Heuer gallery?

 

Building the Stopwatch Collection

Ah, I should have explained... I thought you could get a German sausage on your way through as well..
