Geervo MM dial. It looks very decent however the lume is not good. I expected this thing to light up like a torch.

I got this second hand Orient President in a local watch shop for a bargain. If the old lady knew these could very well go for $500 on eBay... But this one very scratched up, especially the cyclops, it’s unreadable.

I have two options:
1) Replace the mineral with a Rolex 1601 plexi which I think it should fit.
2) Put it in a vintage DD case like this one from Raffles

Do you think it’ll fit? What do you guys recommend?
