Tudor 7016/0 Saved From A Dodgy Re-Lume
Hi Guys,
I had someone contact me recently that had a Tudor Sub which had been the victim of a terrible re-lume! Here are the before shots. I particularly like the oversized 10 o'clock marker! I removed the old lume and was able to re-lume with a vintage look.

I am a total klutz and could have done a better relume that that "before" photo.
Ashton, your rework shows true craftsmanship.
