Re: one of the Hodinkee Guys Bought from me a watch:-)

Hi Darren
yes I know Hodinkee is a good place to receive a critique and I will do the same if I saw something strange in a watch and I don`t take this as personal attack any Idea or critique or a recommendation is always welcome. Darren I will take your opinion in consideration and open the watch and make some micro shot to show all details from the Dials and I don`t know how can a simple light do something like this to the Dial!but I think when Tag Heuer done the service for the watch they relume the Dial without remove the old radium cause is clearly visible under the new lume and I asked my watch maker about this changement and he supposed they done a special treatment to the dial with some special chemical liquid to clean it and perhaps this treatment has accelerate the aging of the dial under the direct light.
thanks to All.
Amer
