Lume is cool...

Did some work in the yard wearing my DJ41 this morning. Lume is pretty cool in even this semi dark room.

Yeah, I really like the chromalight on my Sub, it's just a really nice color and glows plenty long enough for me. It's not as bright as some I've had but I think I like it the best overall.

Lume is cool but so useless. I just did a lume test with my two subs (one luminova, one chromalight) and my Seiko Monster and they were all 99% dead after 2 hours.

I've been looking at Rolexs lately but I've been spoiled with Ball tritium lume. I wish Rolex still used tritium.

Funny this post started today... I had to go into the safe, and when I turned off the lighted interior - I noticed this before closing the door.

Agree with the above post, Rolex needs to get with the lume program. Have to say the blue tint is cool though.

I do love me some lume... I also agree that Rolex could improve it. Still enjoy charging mine up though!
