You have a right to think that way but my personal opinion is that the second hand is a little more weaker than the other two as it is holding less tritium. So i think it is possible that it can be few shades darker or lighter from the other two. If it was the minute or hour marker showing different shades i would definitely think it could be swapped. Here is another example of darker second hand which i like alot It would be nice to see some photos of yours also

Great 1680. Is that an original top hat?

Thanks ^^
It was swapped at the service before it came to me. It is sure not one of the early small beveled top-hats, so should be a later service one.

Hmm, hard to tell them apart. The 1680 crystal is so awesome. One of my favorite parts of the watch :-)

Heres my 1675, with the similar hand colouring disparity as your own… I wasn't as attentive to such things back when I got the service done so was thinking that they may have replaced my hour and minute hand, seeing yours with similar hands made me feel better that perhaps they didn't (as I requested them not to and their only fuck up was swapping the insert, which they changed back again for me).



Not a great picture will have to remember to snap one on a sunny day sometime… will get one of my 1625 too.
