U1 Re-lume Advice Appreciated

Post by MDF » Mon Oct 11, 2010 9:53 pm

Has anyone had their U1 re-lumed? Any advice on where to get it done and should C3 be used or the blue lume?

Thanks in advance for your help and advice.
Regards,

Mark

IWW does relumes, Randall Benson at Dr.Seiko and also Kent at Everest watch works. Kent takes a long time but his work isn't second to anyone one.

Also welcome to the forum.

Hey Trevor I may need to send it to you so you can send it to Kent, I fear being without my U1 for months.
