I've seen several 16520s that have had their porcelain dials swapped with a Luminova service dial.

I have the "Mark 6" dial that has started developing a nice level of patina on the sub dials. I took my watch to an Authorized Dealer (Wempe) in Stuttgart, and was told that there is some EU requirement that if the dial has tritium, I will be required to replace it when I send it in for the 5-year service.
Several Questions: 1) Is this true? 2) Does my watch have tritium? 3) Is this a requirement in the USA? (If not, I'll wait until I move back this summer and have the service done there.) THANKS for any information anyone has. |

I would not leave it to the RSC, either service or anything else.

16520 Tritium ID?
I'm considering purchasing a white dial 16520, but there are some conflicting details about this watch I would like some guidance on.
-The watch appears to have a MK3 or MK4 dial (5 line), but it doesn't have an inverted 6. Is this correct for a Tritium dial? -The watch has a "225" bezel. Could this bezel be correct for a 5-line dial? -Triplock crown. Is this correct? -I don't know the serial number of the case yet. Am I looking at a franken-watch, or are these details consistent with being factory spec? Is there a way to identify whether the 225 bezel is aftermarket? Thanks in advance look forward to your comments. |

different tritium dials for 16520
So, the MkIII and MkIV dials have similar production range? I guess I was under the impression the MkIV followed the MkIII dial.
So I've got a 16520 E series, MkIV dial 78360 brushed bracelet with 503 endlinks. Sound correct and right? ![]() ![]() Sent from an iPhone on a secluded island |
