Something wrong with my Polar dial?





Snatched up a NOS G-series however the lume parts (markers and hands) doesn’t seem as white as the examples I saw online. It’s slightly greenish. Is it normal? Or Chromalight start to patina?

Normal. The lume is not as white as the dial. This isn't apparent on dark dials. Different lighting can enhance or minimize the difference. See how it changes in this review, which is the source for the pic below.
