Heres another one up for auction, it seems mostly nice but I'm not sure I can get past the smudgey lume on the 12. What is the cause of this? I see it on a few of the 806's that come up. Does anyone see any other problems? Thanks as ever for your advice. |

you should be patient, and not buy one where the lume is all black. Not as attractive as one that has nicely aged tritium. |

Yes that's wise advice as always, unfortunately the nicer ones do command a premium and usually at a fixed price and not for auction, but its true there is no hurry so I will keep waiting! |
