I sent my 1970 Accutron Astronaut to Kent for a relume on the dial and hands after seeing what a fantastic job he did on the 3T Orsa. I think it turned out pretty darn good. A before and after comparison:

Awesome, love those Astronauts! hand6.gif

There are 2 more Accutrons on my list, an Astronaut and a Deep Sea.  If they weren't so darn expensive to repair...

Cheers,
Griff
