I know I see you where ever the tantalums are! I’ve been lurking as well. Just for clarification, are you insinuating they made MORE or LESS than 100?

I can seem to count clean ones on one hand perhaps two hands....?

At this point, its “rare” to get one at all... to get one AND with a clean dial must be a different word, perhaps scarce or nearly unobtainable. ;-)

PT said this was a limited edition of 100 pieces.

I can't confirm the amount but i think it's legit, also PT didn't sold the whole batch because some had the "dial issue" prior QCs.

Can you attribute the to any event? Like UV exposure, temperature, moisture, opening it to mod it? What are we speculating the cause(s) to be?

Not really bc I treated it the same as my other watches. I only wore this a total of maybe 10 times and it sat in my watch case with the other watches. It’s was never modded so it’s not been opened and I’ve not had it in any crazy temperatures.

Unfortunately I think it’s just some kind of a defect with the Lume or the paint that just shows up with time. All though there were a few who’s dials had this issue from the beginning If remember correctly. Mine just recently started to show.

You are totally correct, this is it. Temperatures and sunlight etc all just exacerbate the issue, not cause it.

Well spotted, only found the second link while doing search. So both are accurate. Funny to see JF did a mix as well.

Sorry I just saw your post now. I remember that lol! Yes its very unfortunate this happened. To be fair, I will say that the camera really does exaggerate the discoloration a bit more then it really is at least on mine.

Versaceboy54 i remember begging you last year for that one, sad this turned to vanish.

Indeed when on wrist the yellow wrist isn't as present than on pictures.
