VERY old news, but back in the 80âs wor kid gave me a Tag Heuer f1 diver as a birthday prezzie. After a couple of years of light use the battery died and I took it to Northern Goldsmiths for a replacement. On opening it up they found the mechanism (quartz) was corroded beyond repair 
and refused a warranty claim due to âwater ingress caused by obvious misuse!â After some moaning they sent it back to Tag who also refused to play ball!

Tell TrumpyPants that & stand by for the ensuing arse wipe fallout!
Finally got round to buying a link and pins for the Seamaster and hadnât noticed how much the dial lume has yellowed since I put it away a few years ago. Looks really cool.

How old is it?
Bought it in Jan 98 but serial puts it at early 97.

Right on the cusp of when they were moving from tritium to Luminova. Same age as my Speedy, which has Luminova.
Tritium sometimes yellows (although I have an issued 1975 Hamilton W10 and the tritium hasnât yellowed at all) not sure about Luminova?
Also no âTâ indicator either side of the Swiss Made, so fuck noes.
apparently Omega didnât put the T or T<25 on their tritium seamaster dials
I had it serviced by Omega in 2002 and 2005 where I think they replaced the hands and bezel with luminova ones 
Luminova doesnât yellow from what Iâve read online.

Rolex bins off C. F. Bucherer as watch makers. Utter cunts. Rolex can rot in fucking hell. Theyâll never have a penny of my money. The tax dodging, honour stealing, fuckers.
Hope John Wick fucks them right up.
Looks really cool, Iâm guessing service hands again though?
I am not sure that they are service replacements
Certainly not in my time of ownership but that is only last 6 years or so,
I donât have any service history before that.
But the lume is really thin on the hands compared to the markers and there are bits missing and crumbled so they may be original.
They donât give off any lume unless they are blasted with a UV source (same with the markers)
Think the watch is approx 1987 but different websites have different dates, nothing seems to be exact with Omega. The long S and R on the dial and the bracelet ID donât all exactly match with the serial number, but that doesnât mean it is a marriage

Last time I had my pins checked (same watch) one had split in half along the entire length.
I have no idea how! Like a cut baguette stick.
When I had mine serviced they replaced all 6 hands, I think if theyâd been yellowed tritium Iâd have asked for them not to do so, but Iâve heard they canât guarantee not damaging them when they remove them, so they usually replace them as a matter of course, soâŚ
