There is very seldom any more that I get that excited about a watch, but this one I did.  Seiko 5 Sport with a 7S36  a rock solid bracelet with single piece forged solid links. Just a thought "If you could have any thing in the world what would you choose".

Technically I’m not wearing any of these watches but I do have c3 all over my pant leg from wiping the brush off on it.

Is that some sort of die or mold (?) you are using to apply the C-3?

I bought an extra sandwich dial which I seperated and striped of paint and lume
I used the front half of that sandwich dial as a template to paint the back section of the dials I am useing this keeps the overflow from actually screwing up a good dial.

I am useing a model paintbrush that I shortened and trimmed in half to make finer for this kind of work ..

they make a hose fed "pen" for applying lume that might work better but I'm just learning all the ways to work with it.

I have discovered that you don't want to spill it on a dial because its laquer based it will lift the paint off the dial.

The lume does however dry slowly at the right air temperature and at a certain point its mailiable like play dough so when its used in raised markers you can push it away from the sides as it drys with a screwdriver or other hard tool.

its kinda fun, I blue lumed a watch tonight over the c3 that was on it and the lume is kinda blue green now ;)

That's pretty impressive. If I knew more, I would love to attempt what you're doing. Good lumn is really important to me as a feature. I just like stuff that glows in the dark. Have been that way since I was a little kid. Never outgrew it. :D I don't know if using SuperLumn is more expensive or not for watchmakers. But, I wish they would all use it.
