I have a 18238 I recently bought in to rsc for servicing. The tritium dial looks ok, but there's obviously no illumination in the dark. Will RSC replace it with a luminova dial if I approve a replacement? I plan on keeping the watch forever, so not worried about resale. But if the new dial (and hands) are not readable in the dark due to some vintage dial replacement then I will keep the original. thanks.
