Hi would like to ask a simple noob question from all 6195 owners here , as this watch is well over 30years old , does the lumes on the hands and dials still glow ? As what I saw on the pictures those lumes already turn aged patina yellowish , Will it still glow in the dark ?
Can post and share some pictures with it in the dark ?
Thanks

Touchup - polishing of case m caseback, bezel?
Restoration - dial, hands and bezel insert?

Wow , finding a one stop covering overall complete ( internal / external ) servicing for this vintage 6159 is quite challenging in Singapore ,
Is there any other known individual out there ?

Maybe can try bronze age... I heard they do complete servicing, but I never try them before.
