Funny, because right now I'm re-reading a Tom Clancy novel that talks about how tritium is used in atomic bombs to multiply the yield. So I guess that "half-brightness" is related to the half-life of that radioactive material.
Think about that the next time you looks to see what time it is.
Most Ball watches are too large for me, but I do like them and am considering them for my next non-Rolex purchase.
