DIAL & HANDS

The vibrant dial features a charming aesthetic and appropriate signs of age. The copper-colored inner dial and sub-seconds dial contrasts the black outer portion of the dial beautifully. The radium lumed Arabic numerals have aged to a dark coloration and exhibit minimal degradation when inspected under U.V. light. The original radium hands have aged to a lighter patina than the dial and display no degradation under U.V. light inspection.
