5065A Full Tritium Full Luminova or a MIX
Hi Fellow Watch Enthusiast !
Question what is you views on a watch such as the 5065A.
Some examples are full tritium, more pricey but a nice look due to the patina.
Some latest models and revised ones are full luminova, cool modern look and possibly still usable in low light conditions.
Some
are mixed not sure if it out of production but some have hands replaced
after a service, the look feels a bit odd what are your views on these
ones ?
I might have a deal on such a model but
I fear to see the watch a a kind of a Frankenstein missing a clean look
either modern or vintage, all though it seems an acceptable mix in the
collector universe.
I fell a bit lost.
Thank you for your advice.
Cheers,
K
