Different tone lume

Hi guys,

i'm going to relume my V2 ploprof and of course i read a lot. So this is what i found out: different tones of lume. Blue on the bezel and more greenish on the dial. Can any expert confirm? It's very important for me for 2 reasons: first of all, as all here, i'd like to get it as gen possible so i don't want to relume it all (bezel and dial) all the same color if not wright (also because actually the lume on dial on the V2 looks quite green pretty similar to the gen, maybe not as strong of course); second, it's much easier to do and i would try to do it by myself.
Here is a pic of the gen lume of the plop:

My only concern is if applying the lume only on the bezel there could be a too big difference of the lume itself (the intensity) between dial (weaker) and bezel (more powerful). Opinions?

One last thing: some time ago i was reading about a tutorial about how to remove the bezel.....can't find it; any suggestion about how to proceed? i think it was done using a hair dryer.....maybe i'm wrong....
Cheers

I believe it's the same lume for both, it's just that when the lume is spread out it alters the glow.

I'm confident that they are the same lume color.
