I kinda like the discolored / aged look. And this aged look was achieved naturally, rather than by applying aged looking luminova! Great combination with that strap - I like how the color of the thread matches the lume nicely.

 

I kinda like the aged look as well. If you hold off on swapping the dial and hands for now, you could always swap them later on down the road if you change your mind. Alternatively, if you were to swap them now, would Sinn be willing to send the original dial and hands back to you? If so, that might be a decent point in favor of swapping. If not, I wouldn't swap.

 

Wow! Pretty even votes till now for the Sinn EZM2 battery change poll: 5 to keep the dial, 4 to swap the dial….!
@Joshua G good question to aks to Sinn, if they will send the original hands and dial to me in case I swap. Also, indeed I could now go for not swapping and decide again after the next battery change.
Thanks @Dre , agreed that the canvas strap looks pretty cool with the discolored dial and hands!
Hmmm… food for thought….

 

I'm all about crisp dials and hands, but draw the line at swapping them unless they become oxidized or flakey. Yours looks well earned. I voted to keep it.

 

You may find its just the oil which is discoloured and when they clean it
I will be a lot whiter so I wouldnt swap the dial

Thanks @bazza. never thought of that, but actually could well be the case! Anyway, most are in favor keeping the dial and hands, so I guess I go for that
Everyone: thanks for voting!

 

Keep the Patina. I had an older 3H dial and it just felt more unique with the aged hands and dial.

 

Becuase the Sinn logo which is white paint also appears to be tinted It wouldn’t be wild speculation to say the oil is causing the tint and the dial font and lume and hands will appear white when the oil is changed.
