So does the 'Hazard' warning at the 12 o'clock automatically light up when your shark needs a parts infusion?

The second hand is black with a larger circle, it will cover the orange on the other 2 hands

RKD,

While you are at it, you might change the hand and "red" line colors more to the orange side as they will actually be. You know they are not the same as the "!" button which is RED!

You guys ROCK!!! I love it when a plan comes together!

What is the purpose of a black second hand? Useless if we can't see it.

It will actually have a big white superlumi tip on it bro...you WILL be able to see it, but we didn't want that to DOMINATE the other hands...

It's not like it is a stopwatch, you will be able to tell the second hand is moving, ie., the watch is wound and keeping time.

OT.
Pull the slim central console warning panel out. It's ancient tech if yours is like my 88 S4 panel. Couple of philips head screws to release the innards.
Mini bulb under the central warning switch.
Think I swapped in an LED bulb.

Back to the Horological love-fest.
