After about two minutes' exposure to full-spectrum lighting, the maxi-dial of the YM glows brighter than the Sub.

I can't wait to see the comparison after exposure to sunlight.

Wow, JJ! Those are bright markers!
What camera settings do you use?

I use a NIKON 4300 Coolpix 4.2 mp in SCENE and CLOSE-UP mode. A tripod is a must in this mode because even the slightest shake will blur the picture.

JJ,
What lighting, if any, did you use? My Canon S45 didn't like total darkness, even when I used 'slow shutter' and macro.

Believe it or not, I placed the watch in front of a very powerful source of light and then moved it in front of the camera which I had previously set up. The minute the watch was in postion, all I had to do was click. I chose a darkened room for the added blinding illumination of the dial.
