Superluminova & patina
Does anyone know if the new dials are expected to change colour with age?

From what I have read, luminova will not deteriorate like tritium, so no, the dials will not change.

SL hasn't been around long enough to say. I think they shouldn't, but nobody knows.

It's said Luminova will not patina. Sometimes it's not a bad thing.

12 years old and just starting to show some color...
Any Luminova dial would be newer than this...

We all change with age.
 But like a fine wine all of us and our Rolex's will only get better with age
