countryman Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 I am looking for a watch that actually holds its Luminous at night and doesn’t fade out after a short while, I have been looking at Tritium , any thoughts on this or recommendations . Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amateur Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 (edited) I have a Casio Waveceptor that has permanently luminous hands and is self regulating via a radio signal. I also have a Samsung Watch4, worn on my other wrist which constantly displays my blood sugar level (I'm T1 diabetic using a Libre2 sensor). This also displays at night, but I do have to move the watch or touch the face to wake it up Edited September 24, 2023 by amateur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little press of the button and you’re lit up nicely. Pretty much bomb proof too. And if you do break it, easy to replace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acerforestry Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 Luminox or Nite possibly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countryman Posted September 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 Tritium seems to glow all the time or though not the brightest by any means, apparently it’s banned in some countries due to its radioactive content. Vostok Europe seem to have it in a lot of their watches and Tracer from what I’ve looked at so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyS Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 I've got a Luminox and it's brilliant. About 10 years old now and still lights up like a Christmas tree in the dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countryman Posted September 28, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 I ended up buying an Aragon with Tritium T-100 , certainly keeps glowing, I’ll let you know if the radiation spreads and lights my arm up as well 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
