Great stuff and thanks for sharing Dan!

I came on to the Big Block scene late (last year) and I find them some of the best pieces on the wrist ever

Here are my T-dial 79170s:

Love the THC!

Honest question though is the lume on the hands utter rubbish on all of them or do I have some bad hands?

Nice THC!

The hands are not as bright due to the thinner lume application compared to the hour plots, but still plenty legible.

Mine has blotches or less lume in some places and more lume in others. It’s not very bright but is visible even when fully charged by sunlight. Just wondering if anyone else has seen this.

Mine are not blotchy at all, very consistent. Not as bright as the hour markers but still easy to read.

The curves and symmetry is also a thing of beauty... "sexy" if I must say

Here is one of mine, linen dial. Not many out there, has a bit of a meteor look and can really come alive in the right light.
