I have a 10 year old Submariner with very bright lume markers which looks great, but I really like the look of the old Subs with the creamy hands and markers. Just wondering if mine over time will go like this?
Judging by how clean and fresh mine looks I know I have a long way to go so I have messed around in photoshop and think the image I have posted looks pretty cool.

Many thanks

Well if dial is luminover and your dial is, doubt if it will happen, its normally the dials with Tritium markers pre around 1998 that get the age patina.
(Nice photoshop patina.)

Thanks padi56, looks like an older Sub maybe on the cards.
