Contrast of the indices really sets the watch off

You are absolutely right This look (beyond the blinding gold) makes the watch.

I do like the YM in all it's variations. Did you update the hands to LumiNova? Or are they the original Tritium ones?

The hands are without a doubt luminova but the dial is quite dead. I have no clue weather they've been updated unless the previous owner requested it as part of service. It's a late U serial (U987XXX) so maybe it's transitional where luminova hands were in use in conjunction with ready made tritium dials?

Well done Sir, well done.

Hopefully, my 16628 will make
its debut here in TRF sometime this week.

Cheers.

Looking forward to seeing another. Only a handful seem to have them on here and very rare in the wild.
