Great quality as always, nice polishing, great in fact. Not your standard mercedes on sub homage, this one a big bigger. And the lume, oh my, what a gorgeous blue lume! With BLW9 it can last quite long

This is a must for modders who want the blackout version of SKX. This chapter ring is subtle. But that subtlety is a must for blackout SKX you can possibly dreamed of. Make no mistake, the quality is outstanding!

SKX013 Brushed Silver Chapter Ring
SKX013 SS Bezel Insert
If you're after that stainless steel look for your SKX013 then I highly recommend this. It came with adhesive backing applied so it was and easy to install and the fit was excellent. Highly recommended.

Delighted with the quality and I couldn't wait to get get started working on my Seiko SNK805. Really happy with the result and even my girlfriend thinks it's awesome!
Wow wow! Nicely done Will. Quite a lot of people has gotten this dial but we don't get to see many who shared their mod. So nice to see your stunning piece. Thanks for sharing Will! Definitely a plus when your GF likes it =D

Super high quality. Can't wait to throw this on when all my parts get in. Lucius's communication is great every step of the way. Made me a repeat buyer.
It's aways my pleasure to help out. Being able to chat with someone on the opposite side of the world is just magical. Something we usually take for granted and forgotten - The Internet. Thank you once again for your support Drew! =D

My package arrived with my eagerly awaited dial and was pleased with how it looked plus I found a free gift too.
The dial is stunning and cant wait to mod my Seiko.
Can't want to see what your finish mod will look like! It is going to be stunning for sure. Thanks again Dennis! =D

This one dial is great looking! The finish is matte black, applied indices for a fair price, great blue lume.. And no radioactive in play there. A bit sub style, which everybody adore. Overall great great dial!!
Thanks for the awesome review as always Willy! =D

Lucius Atelier is the only store where you can find steel (not aluminum !!!) bezel insert for seiko skx013. The quality of this product is very high
Hey Valerio! Thank you so much for your review. Glad you love the steel bezel. Steel is definitely awesome. But aluminium too. Albeit a soft metal, it has a unique property - i.e. a characteristic to age when exposure to external environments. Perhaps some time in future, we might work on this. For now, you get all the awesome steel. =D

I'm busy doing a Railmaster mod and have found a couple of places selling this type of dial, but the one by LA was definitely the cleanest. No silly text, just a straight-forward and highly legible design. I really like the matte texture of the dial itself. Only issue I found was that the printing of the lume isn't quite as crisp as I would like, but this is honestly only something I can really see when using a loupe. In normal viewing conditions it looks perfectly fine.
Thanks Theo! Always love your review! You're definitely a perfectionist =D High five to that. I am too, therefore I will be launching a dial that is of immaculate quality in the near future. It is something I am working on. Quality and standard will be no less than Credor - but herald from the Swiss. It will be beautiful even under a 50x loupe. The price will scale with finishing. Hence the dial will probably cost over a thousand dollars. Perhaps you might be interested.

I needed a polished chapter ring for a complete build I'm doing on an SKX013. It's really well cut, nice sharp edges, but the polishing can be improved. I noticed just a few rough spots here and there and there are also some faint horizontal lines running around the surface. Not sure if this is from the machining process or an indication that the ring was polished in only one direction. It was no big deal though as I just ended up polishing it a bit more with my Dremel.
Yep. You are actually right, it's machine polished in one direction. For our dials to fit SKX013, we had to reduce the width size of the CR by about half compared to SEIKO's stock plastic CR and still keep the CR angled like the original. To give you a perspective how tight the clearance, the CR is 1.0 mm width and 0.25 mm from touching our dial indices when installed. Any smaller, the CR will be too fragile to produce even though its 316L stainless stain. From an engineering point of view, these chapter rings were by no means easy to manufacture. It was a manufacturing feat! So the faint flaws do occur on occasion. Unfortunately, this is part and parcel of machining process. Of course to reach perfect finish, like what you did, each CR has to be hand polished. Prices of parts always astronomically increase with finishing. I did not opt for hand polished as with this option, each CR would probably cost est. $60 USD due to the intensive labour cost involve. I honestly think no ones going to buy a CR for a $60 USD. As always, thanks Theo for sharing your constructive feedback!

I'm using these hands for a Railmaster mod which I'm busy with. I really like how well they are cut and polished. The lume colour is also great but I noticed that the lume intensity is uneven on the hour hand right in the centre of the arrowhead.
Hey Theo! This is a valuable feedback and I am thankful for it. I will definitely highlight this to our QC team and work on rejecting such pieces. For those reading, we have decided to discontinue the pioneer batch of our hands (those without the *improved* label). Future hands will all be *IMPROVED* version, i.e. improved version will have multiple layers of 100% Swiss Super-LumiNova BGW9. This will result in a significantly brighter lume as well as removing the possibility of uneven luminous pigment. Hope you find this information useful. Thanks again for the review and helpful feedback Theo!!
Beautiful Dial, took forever
I really enjoy the dial. It took a very long time to get here after I ordered it.
My apologies it took so long. Well, you will be happy to hear that we have ditched USPS. With DHL eCommerce and Express Worldwide, delivery will be faster with full tracking capability. At least it is good to hear you enjoy the dial. =D Thank you Brent!
