That will need Breitling attention, it's kind of weird though, generally only water damage affects SuperLuminova.

please see macro photo taken today.. there is smth wrong not only with lumine but also with digit 4 (bottom part is missing)

When I look at the mark ... its not damaged mechnicaly or by water.. its look like manufacturing issue(material is rounded without sharp edges etc)...

what do you thing? could be any other reasonable cause of that problem
is it any other option then change dial to repair that?
regards

It looks like either a manufacturing defect that slipped through QC, or the dial has been damaged during a repair of some kind.

As Roff already said, your only real option is to send it to Breitling for attention. It certainly isn't a DIY fix.
