Looks fine, I wouldn't even have noticed anything was off if you hadn't said it.

Looks good. That happened on one of my watches and I found various sources for photoluminescent paint on ebay and found an exact match FYI. Many of them give you the binder and powder separate and you mix to the desired consistency with a toothpick and apply.

Yeah, looks fantastic Kempo. :clap: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

You fixed the issue, and didn’t have to deal with any stress trying
to send it off for repair. ;) Well done ! MacGyver would be proud. :grin:
I hope you can really enjoy that beauty now. Looks like a million $
to be honest with you !!!

Thanks gents. It's such an easy fit instead of returning to mother ship.

Same happened to my EZM3. When I finally noticed it missing I had to look back through my wrist shots of it on here to figure out when it went. I think I might invest in some of that lume paint :thumbsup:
