Wow that’s on par with a monster
Quality Luming:)
I just received my Speedbird 3 back from James Hyman (dreamboat10 on here).
It had niggled me for a while that the lume on the hands was really weak when compared to the dial, so after a quick search I learnt about James and packed the watch off to him to do a relume on the hands, and also paint the hands white rather than leaving them in metal as they were.
The lume he used is Super-LumiNova Radium X1.
Well, the quality of his work is superb. Cast your eyes over this feast...
And the clarity of the lume.
Excellent work from James. A lovely chap to deal with in every way (and yes, I have given him a Hero).

Superb result but I wouldn’t expect anything less from Jimbo. True master of his craft and as you say he’s always an absolute pleasure to deal with.
Well done, enjoy that torch!
Hmmm,
Perhaps I should talk to him about painting the hands of my PRS17C?

Go for it. It’ll look superb.
Fantastic relume job! I also think the idea to paint the hands white is inspired. Really ties the look of the watch together.
He’s done a great job, good idea on the white hands too.
Wow, that looks fantastic.
Not even sure I have a watch which needs doing but I want it done!
James' work is really good, if you haven't already, check out his instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thealchemistrelumer/
Absolutely awesome - glows like a torch!!

Cheers.
I value high contrast on watches, so the white hands was an obvious choice. Makes it even more glance-readable than it was as standard. Given that the primary purpose of a watch is to be quickly readable, I’m surprised it’s not a standard thing to do.
I’ve had watches that look lovely in photos, but when on the wrist are near-impossible to read the time. Kind of defeats the point for me.
Does he have a website or is it just a question of firing off a pm to him on here?
Ive got a couple of watches that would benefit from his expertise.
James painted these hands and relumed them, perfect job, really is.
So much more legible

Looks great OP / Dave
James does great work.
The lume on my EZM1 had become badly discoloured
