I love it!! Good job!!!!

Now I need one :D

vaccum... for some reason the modded base is the most satisfying.... there is no seconds hand clearance issues so the lume can be applied much thicker than a sub seconds model. i use the loctilumina coats first for the long bright glow and the tritec layer on top very thin because it charges up faster than the noctilumina. too thick for a sandwich dial this way so the sandwich models i just mix the lumes.

Plus some base dials available have better swiss made below 6 spacing compared to most marina sandwich dials. So that alleviates at least one more issue.8)

Nice work Flav. [smilie=thumbsup.gif]

still cannot get results i'm happy with using smoke.. soaking the dial face in stain for a few days seems best.
