Looks like a solid watch.
What are you going to do about the missing lume dot in the bezel? I think a pip would make it looks a little more complete.

Check the sales forum here or over on VRF. But if you’re not willing to pay over $200, I don’t think you’ll find one. That’s what these tiny little dots are going for nowadays, and more.

Yes, it should. It’s tricky installing/transplanting these little dots. I’ve done it and they have a tendency to vanish. Do it over a big bowl to try not to lose it. Also, you’ll most likely need a tiny drop of glue from behind to secure it. The whole process ain’t as easy as you might think. Good luck.
