hi everyone,
i just got the marvellous rep of FF vintage...
really beatiful....but....too new!
:rofl:

i saw a post in which a user vintagized the dial...i guess it would be great to know how to do it or simply know (in EU) who can do it for a good work....

txs to everybody

Take the movement, dial and hands out. Separate the hands and dial from movement. Brew some coffee and tea and use a small brush to apply them on the lumed parts (use your own discretion here). Let dry, or put them in the oven for a short while. Voila, vintageized dial & hands.
