Topgun Lume Question/ with pics

[jcrry2]

I baught a TG from Mark and I am going to relume it and contacted vaccum for prices. the current lume is only on the 3,6,9, and 12 hour markers and hour and minute hands. is this how the gen is? and is vac only going relume those markers or will he lume all the markers?
I know your probably thinking why i just dont ask vac, i hate to bother him so much and kinda wanted to show off my new watch!!
Current Lume (sorry for the shitty pics)

new strap; and yes you have seen it before on concepta's tg
had to get one for myself

and ofcourse a wristy

Wow, that looks nice. I was hooked on this watch and strap combo back when Concepta posted it. Where did you get the strap, so I can order it at the same time as the Top Gun?

you need Takashi for this. i'd hazard a guess and say that this is the way the gen is.

it is accurate for the 3717 so i'll assume the TG is no different

I just got my TG back from Vac. He lumes only the 3, 6, 9 and 12 markers on the dial, so the ones that are already lumed in the rep. That's like the gen.

In the mail back from my watchsmith... Sent it for a service. I might post some photos when I'm back home in Jan.

[mamba]

wow great lume, can you tell me what is "vac" lume, is it an person or special lume?

 

[pedecter]

That lume looks great, Rooster. All the sudden I like the Top Gun. I wish my Big Pilot would hurry up & get here.

Search for "vacuum", he's a modder that offers luming services in the US. I strongly recommend him.
