Ah, just flat white mate but since you are painting why not do the plat job?

He'll need a full base of white anyway.

any brand of flat white i should look at.im only painting the 3 and the 0 the rest look good .im getting the next noob lv submariner c when released so im only touching up that.also the lec was a mm off so used a ball off tape to twist the crystal,the alignment is spot on now.

Wow I didn't know you could move the crystal that way.modelers paint should do it.if the colours not quite right you could do the whole bezel to match.I've done this with the plat mod and it's not to difficult if careful
