Sorry to hear!

I doubt you'd get another but similarly doubt you'd have the same experience again if you did.

Plenty of other great brands out there to scratch the itch!

Sinn and Omega spring to mind...
I want a watch with tritium tubes. Actually, there's not much out there. If it weren't for Rolex abandoning the use of tritium in any form, I'd still be with them. I like Rolex watches, but being able to tell time in the dark for an extended period is important to me and Super Luminova isn't very good after a few hours.

I suggested to BALL that they simply exchange my watch for a different one, but they didn't go for it.
