Just got back my Gmt from Vaccum relumed. What a beauty. Very happy with the attention to detail and overall look. Here`s a quick pic of it.

what was the turn around time P?

that is awesoem. does the reluming make the fonts slightly thicker? I'm looking forward to getting mine relumed by vaccum now... i just have to find some "wrist downtime" for it :)

slightly thicker in terms on height but not the size...
Here's the relumed result (sorry for thread jacking)

Reluming by hand is not the same as the lume applied at the factory. The lume will make the numbers or markers a bit higher but I try to keep it the lowest possible.

anyway thicker lume (more powder) translates to brighter and longer glow.

Relume on a sandwich dial is one thing, but on the painted dials it's a very daunting task. Very nice job. Looks very clean Vac.
