Vintagized Tritium Pearl...what do you think?

Well, after deciding to hold onto my 16800 for a bit longer, I thought I should take care of what has been a big eye sore for me. The pearl! Although I installed a gen bezel insert, the fact that the pearl was super lumed and the dial/hands were not, bugged me. I'd always admired those amber tritium pearls that were so orange and so beautiful...just screamed vintage. So I set out this morning to achieve what I'd wanted for so long...an amber tritium pearl for my 16800. Quick jump to the local Ace Hardware and done! What do you think? Should I go darker? I can say this, I fell in love with my 16800 all over again. :lol:

looks good. I had a similair looking pearl on a sub I had last year. It actually looked too old for the model sub I had so I changed it. Wish I would of held on to it for other projects, but I am not much into rollies now anyways.


Good Job,

Natron
