The aged lume from Luminova has to be prepared by hand and costs US$4500 per 100 grammes. They didn't buy it and embarked on a (fruitless) search for another supplier but never mentioned anything to me.
So here we are, 3 months late and only now do I discover that aged lume is a problem. The dial will now have Super Luminova C3 and should be here PDQ.
