Hi,

Looking for somebody to do some lume work for me in the UK on a genuine sub dial, hands and insert, anybody know of somebody confident with lume application?

Cheers

You should contact Natas. He’s really good with lume. Really good in general. He’s made a couple of my watches glow like a radioactive torch.

Yeah not looking to send the watch out of the UK, I then have to worry about shipping, plus I already have the lume pigment and hardener as I wanted to make sure it was genuine Swiss superluminova used so I bought it direct from TC tritec, but even with me supplying lume, shipping to him in Belgium he quoted me 190 euros, and that price I'm sure I could find somebody in the UK within driving distance.

Just wondering if anybody here was in the UK and good with lume as I have never tried and I don't fancy starting on gen 16610 dial and hands.

Ha fair

I only know of ado and trip for watch work but am unsure regarding lume

They should provide a straightforward answer to a sensibly asked question from you given you’ve clearly put in the groundwork

Good luck

No, still no luck finding anybody in the UK, really don't want to have to send out of UK as no shipping will insure watch for over 3k and I have around 3.6 in it

You could try asking Rolie on RWG his avatar is Herman munster, and he is UK based.
