Great re-lume job on my EZM1

[andy tims]

Just got my watch back from James Hyman (Dreamboat10)


Before - with dirty lume plots





After (James's own shots)








Very pleased

That is a sympathetic relume and it does look good, that said I don't see much wrong with the original.
Was the bezel pip done as well (always a weak spot for Sinn)

I have to say that prefer the original lume. Iconic watch though

[mrwozza70]

It's a great lume job... it's not for us to say whether it was needed or not. Its your watch OP... so enjoy it

I too like the original lume but James did do a great job for ya
But I'd would of got a new dial of Sinn as there not very expensive Chap

Cheers Andy, different lighting but the colour is very close to what it was originally....superb watch and very well built 😉👍🏻

Quality work, and very sympathetic to the original.

[Chinnock]

Very sympathetic indeed - good job!

Do they even have spare 3H dials available?

I'd also have needed a handset too.

look great and good to see it works again...

[Bry1975]

Looks good work.

I wouldn't have had the original relumed but James's work is exceptional, he's certainly the man for that kind of work

Turns out Sinn only have Ar dials for EZM1 but you can still get the hands, the dial is €59 and the handset is €40

That was my understanding.

I think it looks great Andy.
I deliberately chose to get an Ar when I went looking for my EZM1, on the basis that it is a tool watch and deserves to have the best functioning lume. That was my choice.

But at the same time I understand the attraction of a 3H dial. The higher valuation of 3H examples shows I am in the minority.
So perhaps this is the perfect compromise, 3H dial and colouration, SL functionality.
Sure, perhaps the purist would have kept it and bought a new dial and hanset for function, but you cannot wear both at once, so this works perfectly for me.
Good Job
Dave

Cool watch! How did the lume plots get dirty? Uneven discoloration with ageing or how did it happen?
