Hi Hectie. Missed you. Did you enjoy your hiatus ?

However these later Bubblebacks often had simple stick link markers and leaf hands. They didn't really look like "Bubblebacks" in other words. Especially in the '80s dealers would automatically replace or refinish these to match the older aesthetic that collectors wanted. This is also when enterprising refinishers started producing after-market Mercedes hands to match the look of link the dial. It was all common and accepted at least link in the U.S. again it just looked cool.
