This is a special 6-8 layer application of Super-LumiNova applied over a chemical coated white base, causing an incredibly bright luminescent light charge.
The dials design process took 9 months to reach perfection. We used a custom made Super-LumiNova compound from Switzerland's finest luminous compound manufacturer, RCtritec. This method of application requires the dials to be printed first with a titanium dioxide base coat, and then with six layers of custom made Grade A Super-LumiNova.
All prototypes are hand made, and the factory machinery replicates the curves, height, and finish (in factory, the lume is applied with a CNC stylograph).
We lay down a layer of white colored titanium dioxide by rotary print, then 6 layers of Super-LumiNova followed by a layer of clear gloss coat.
Each step of this unique method must be done very extreme care so the overall aspect and finish of the watch are as close as perfection as can be.
