Hi everyone,

New in the Daytonas world here...

I know these watches were hand made but, aside this, are these lume plots sizes legit?

See pic of the 6265 below.

I see them too big.

Thank you,

To me it looks like the dome crystal is giving the lume a bit of a cyclops effect as some dots look zoomed and oval shaped.
However, the size of the lume dots do look fairly typical to me but slightly more tan in tone than normal.
Lets see what others feel.
Nice looking Big Red IMO…

They look fine. There were variations in the size of the dots on 6263/5 Daytonas. A UV light could help confirm.

Thank you both.

A special thank you to you, Aaron. You know a lot about Daytonas. Appreciate your time

True…
He was one of the main members who helped me while I was vetting the possible pick up of my 6263 earlier this year.
