Dial chromalight repair

Hi everybody, do you think it’s possible to repair this dial?

Of course. It just needs to be relumed. There are modders here who can do that.

OK and do you know how much is it? Do you think it's genuine?

Genuine lume? All lume is genuine unless you’re referring to Rolex’s lume. They use their own proprietary blend of god knows what. You won’t be able to find the perfect lume. A modder can usually do that for $50-$100 depending on who.

It’s really not that hard tbh. Just pop out the markers; stick them in acetone for a little while and the lume will come off. Then, level them in some rodeco or a bit styrofoam and make a blend that’s fairly thin and just fill the little markers up. wait for it to dry and then place them In the proper holes, secure them with some masking tape, turn the dial over and either solder the little holes or put a drop of glue in them and let dry.

The hardest part is making them leveled which isn’t that hard.
