The photo is just for reference, LOL. I know this experience people have been referring to: once you see the little differences, it is hard to unsee them. Yes, I agree. But those small differences in the curve and angle and thickness of the numbers are really veiled by the crystal distortion. It is the big differences like the greenish lume on the KW dial that should be the focus of modification. Especially as it is easy to correct, LOL.

I didn't think it was THAT green. It didn't look like that when me and polonustm compared my noob and his kw tbh.
KW seems to be whiter on the dial then ZF. From a video I watched.

I couldnt say it better. It's really greenish compared to the gen. ZF is much better on the lume colour. I had both at one point and couldnt stand the kw at all. Could tell its all wrong mile apart despite the other better points like numerial placement and case finishing.
If anyone have color sample or color chip , pls let me know , I can try to matching the color and print the dial again.
I ended up sticking with the ZF. I relumed it, swapped in DSN hands and a long list of Swiss parts including a properly sized cannon pinion to fit the hands.

Getting To Know The Place
Looks great! May I ask, why did you relume the dial? I ask because some people say KW looks too green, whereas ZF is supposed to be better. But on your second pic the lume looks as green as my KW. So did you change the colour vs. the original ZF lume? What did you use, a mixture of C1 and C3?
[MENTION=35495]Strodda[/MENTION] the CP you changed is it more correct to Gen? The hands look great btw. I have never modded a dial at all and scared to even try. Lol.
