Some discussion... I notice that the new meteorite dial 126x series... the subdials have a gentle step not found on 116x series.

EDIT : I'm not sure if it's actually stepped or not or if it's the lighting, but you can see - the "internal" subdial is very distinct and seperated from the "glossy" subdial outer ring. Need more photos to confirm. Just some subtleties. It's very hard to find any video of this watch.

On another note. Building my sodalite dial. I wanted the "non lume" thin hands. But unfortunately the sodalite dial is thick and requires SW hands, which means my only option is lume hands.

I find that both lume and non lumed hands exist in gen. Although the lumed variant is rare and only made after 2005.

Here is what I mean.

Lumed :



Non lumed :
