 My opinion is that if the original is servicable, it is best to leave it alone. I don't think that the numerals are lumed, but only painted on. The original hands were rusted beyond salvaging, so my watch maker found hands like the original but they came lumed. I like the look of new against the old myself and I think it makes the watch more usable.
