Default smith 669 - replacement sight recommendations

Hello All.....a few months back I picked up a mint model 669 and I had a chance to shoot it and am pleased with the overall performance. However, my eyes are not what they used to be and wanted to know if anyone has recommendations on front and rear sight replacement options that would be easier to see and sight. Thanks in advance

The sights on the 669 are not easily replaced, it does require machine work. The one thing with them being stainless they don't need to be refinished after machine work is done on them usually. Novak sights would be where I would send it, they have quite a few options. I like the fiber optic front with a plain black rear myself, although the fiber optics can break they are easy to replace once installed. As a CCW you may want to consider night sights also.
