If I had a choice I want the numbers to look bolder in daytime. Gen ap lume is just ok basically. so I think just to make the number look bolder is I think the best option. I think the best way is too thicken the zero's on the inside. which would make it bolder.

Precisely thats why i dont bother how good the modder can relume this thing to shine brightly. More impt if the numbers are thicken... mission success.

Yes. I agree.
The font being bolder and the lume application looking clean during daylight is much more important than how it looks at night in bed.

Is it just me or is this lume really good?

Thats a lower end 21j rep. There's no lume on the bezel.

yes i've since realized that the bezel font, while bold, doesn't resemble the gen much.

is it not possible just to buy the inner bezel?

who can do a good job for the inner bezel mod to resemble the gen?

Well I don't think you can buy it from AP.
But you should look into it.

Does anyone know?

I'm still wondering how anyone will notice this while it's on your wrist

haha,while i agree with you,sometimes it's because of the nitpicker in us that notices those details.. i think it's more for our personal satisfaction..:D:

LOL

I agree but I don't want to wear a rep if I cannot wear it proudly next to a gen owner.

I agree. Its mostly for personal satisfaction as well but if you complain about one flaw, i feel like one rationally has to care about them all.

it looks nice.. bit even modded there seems to be a slight difference in the numbers.. in the gen there seems to be an white outline surrounding the numbers and they seem much thicker or bolder...
