D serial 16613 lumes changing colors??
My dad has a D serial 16613 submariner. He called me the other day and said he just noticed two of the lumes (at the and one and two o clock) position, have changed from their white color to a slightly tan color...all other lumes remain white...
Has anybody else experienced anything similar to this before? I do not have any pics at this time, but intend on getting some later. Just wanted to know your opinions. I had the watch serviced for him a month or so ago...not sure why this would effect the dial??? |

How old is the watch? Is the lume color under daylight conditions or in the dark? Lume may be wearing out.
