I’ve had this idea in my head for a while now, but needed a good dial example to start from. So I found one and now I’m capable of transforming the already badass 187 into the much coveted PAM 225 (with an even better case!!)

Here are the two I made so far:

The dial:

Have you ever thought about using a different binder for the lume dots? It looks like the one you‘re using dissolves when drying, leaving an uneven surface.

Well that's more due to the pigment used, the binder is noctilumina's normal binder
