Lume - is it all the same?

Glowing and enlightening. Thanks for posting Robert.

It's amazing all the types of lume that are actually used on different watches ! Thanks
for that link Doc..just really great stuff there ! Also that St. Moritz Watches is neat too
Barn..you can choose from a good variety of colors and customize your watch. All the
lume shots are amazing on these watches ! I noticed how incredible the Lum-Tec lume
has been for a while now..WOW ! The MDV technology they use is evidently
used with Praesto to some extent as well ! Here are a few links to Lum-Tec and Praesto
and there are some 3-Hand Lum-Tecs as well !

Thanks. I've found that WIS can be divided into two groups - those that love lume and those who are just plain weird.

I just might be a little of both !

I've seen lume compounds on Ebay before, anyone tried to apply it on their own? Here's a link to one auction that appears to be affiliated with LumTec.

WTF is tit-night? Oops. Tritnite and why does it suck my jock?

ask Eyal, hell tell you that Invictas Tritnite is the best you can get, upgraded lume...... Uh OK...

I agree Alan, my Eco-zilla has the best lume by far.

Does Lume have a shelf life ?

I have no scientific data to back me up but I say it definitely has a finite life. I've seen some vintage dive watches where the lume has faded to nothing. I would like to know if anyone has any data on how long the different lume varieties typically last.
