That's a bit off. Not heard of it before. How old is it and where did you buy it from? I'm thinking of getting one of these myself, but don't like the idea of fading fonts. Almost as if it was printed on afterwards.

Yup, they have always had this issue. Mine did the same thing but not quite as bad as that one.

it’s funny because i got it for some years now (bought it from a trusted dealer here-dont remember who), but i have not wear it many times, especially in sunny conditions.
Mostly kept in the box, and i realized it today LOL.
Maybe it has faded last year or so, and it got me laughing that i had not realized it before!
Maybe i return it LOL Just kidding.
I still love it’s lume though

This is exactly why I don’t buy one. It’s a shame too, I love the exp II!
