source for hands to fit 3130
I read a thread about changing hands out on an air-king for something a little more legible. This has gotten me thinking about my poor eyesight and the thin shiny hands on mine. Explorer1 hands would be nice, but I believe that
yachtmaster minute hand is even fatter ( even Maxi hands). I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong. Anyway to get to the point what is a good place to get hands. I have looked at otto frie and esslinger etc.. But their stuff seems very generic and I would really like to get strong lume if I did do this. |

First, its quite possible that other Rolex hands will not fit on your AK's hour wheel or on the cannon pinion due to POSSIBLE different diameters.
I would first ask a watchmaker about this and then work from there. |

Thanks for the response but I believe all hand diameters are the same for the same movement.
