Hi OTDers
I just got this 11630MH which is supposed to be all original. The seconds hand is much darker than the other orange bits, and looks good as new. From what I can tell from looking at pictures on the net, the second hand is often slightly darker, but it's hard to tell if it's as dark as mine (especially because the hand seems to photograph lighter than it appears in real life, in my attempts so far at least). I'm not sure if the hand was even supposed to match originally, so I have no idea...
These two (admittedly horrible) pics are a pretty accurate representation of how the watch looks. So what do you guys think, is the hand original or a service replacement?
