Just another 111 with the brightest lume EVER

[COLDI]

Well this is just an on going project I have going on. I love the look of the 177, but I dont like how light Ti is because if I wear a watch I like to "know" I'm wearing it. I relumed this earlier this week and have to say that the lume is the brightest stuff I've ever used. Its Lumtec's G2 lume and it has an insane glow, heck it even glows throughout the day in broad day light. It has mineral which I would like to replace. I would like to add a toro or sneed cg to it and I think it will be a pretty great rep. Granted the L Swiss Made L is a little off, but I think this is better than the horrible hook on DSN's new 111h dial.

Well here are a few pics of the build so far.

In the sun:

Inside the house:

Got lume?!

Still glowing:

Coldi, you have to lume the hands to! LOL! For someone who sold all his watches for a house, you sure do have a lot of projects and parts lying around. Hehe. That lume is very bright. How does it look when it's not charged? Whitish or kinda green???

 

[COLDI]

Hands are lumed with something else. The G2 dries thick and caused the hands to rub. So the hands were relumed using just a green lume from Lumtec. The color is creamy when not charged at all but the charge lasts so long and is so bright it always has a hint of green.

but if only the hands has the same brightness then is prefect already.. anyway nice 1 =D

Bud the lumetecG2 is thick because of the micron size, it is 20-35microns according to flav and therefore very bright, you are skillful to have even put that onto your watch..

 

[COLDI]

LOL it makes the superlumed hands look like rep...Pathetic lol

 

[drivesick]

That's crazy that it's that thick for the hands to rub.

Well there is hardly any clearance when I got it. One of the hands was slightly bent so I had to rebend it and I didnt know how much it would give without damaging it I only did a little. Granted no one can tell and it looks great, its just the same lume that I used for the dial wouldnt work for the hands

 

[COLDI]

If I add more binder, could it make it thinner and allow me to apply it on the hands?

Holy GLOWy Batman those luninous lines look like lasers!

 

[COLDI]

Here is an update. I did the hands and think they complete the watch. What do you all think?
