1665 mk1 matching hands?
Hi all,
What do you think of this mk1 1655? When seen under sunlight, the hands match fine but when looked at indoor, the hour and minute hands look lighter? I have been told that some slight colour deviation could happen even to original hands/dial. What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance!! |

Absolutely there can be variation in the aging of hands. Looks very nice.

Looks fine. I'd be more concerned if they matched perfectly under all lighting conditions. That's rare with truly original parts. Variations are to be expected.

Agree with the others that color mismatch is not uncommon. That said, the color of those hands are really close to that of the plots. You can only tell by looking closely. Hardly something to worry about!

Still looks good.
Any corrosion on the hands? They look pretty clean overall. |
