Superocean Heritage gen dial + lume job

[sunnydale]

I want to thank Domi for doing a great job with my Heritage! He changed the dial to gen which I bought from Ebay and also relumed the hands to match the gen lume. The lume is 1:1 to dial and it glows! My first modded watch so I am really excited!

Unfortunately he could not do the AR this time so the watch will next go to Uwe. The gen dial makes a huge difference although the AR is not done yet.

And a crappy picture of the watch and old dial:

Thanks Domi!

Damn, I didn't realise you could pick up gen dials!

I will need to keep an eye out...


What did the dial cost, if you don't mind me asking?

Hi Mate,

There's one for sale again:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/BREITLING-O...187?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c5f220d5b

The price was pretty much the same as I ordered mine some time ago. It really does a difference! And should be 100% gen. I also know where to get gen hands if you need (at least some time ago they were available).

Looks great!

Thanks! It is stunning even without the AR job, need to get it posted soon to Uwe or I will start wearing it

Blimey, not that cheap for a dial! Good value compared to the cost of a gen watch though

It looks awesome!

But... am I the only one who really can't see a difference between the two dials in the pic?
Based on what I can see, I'm not sure I could justify the cost.

of course there is a difference , if u mean about the quality , well , then i agree with u , a better picture would help

 

[sunnydale]

Maybe I will post a better picture later but the basic differences are: misaligned lume dots, 12 o'clock markers too close, misaligned P and A in superocean/Automatic. My watch is version 1, the next versions have some things better for the dial, some aren't. And one thing that I noticed is the ground color of the dial, it is completely different in gen dial.

The lume dots all day long.

Same with all the avengers. Damn rep factories.

Just to show you folks how it finally looks:

And the amazing lume that lasts and lasts:

Compared to Hublot:

I am really satisfied with the results and it seems that Hublot will stay in the box a lot...
