Show your patina
« on: April 01, 2014, 06:26:27 AM »
Well guys lets show your watch with those patina markers.

Recently the Black Bay Midnight Blue is short of the patina effect on its markers. That will have to wait for some years to see its ageing effect.

Hence the Maroon gilt dial is more popular because of its vintage effect. 

So let show your watch with those patina effect.

 :Cheers:

Is one of the sub dial hand functioning properly as I noted it has turn to 20 min?

Have you considered sent in to get a full spa and a rejuvenation?

There is the running second dial.
All functions work perfectly as it should.
Will opt for movement service next, and keep the rest untouched.

Lots of tritium. .. from France. .

Lolipop n Pencils. ..

When this is new, we will have no problem reading under the sea as almost everything is tritium painted even the inner bezel markers! So far Lip is among the few who paints all the bezel markers with tritium.

Manual wind, unlike the more easily available Lip Nautic Ski which is electronically driven... sits well on the wrist with big dome plexiglass.



Merci..
