    Wow - how on earth do they achieve that. The luminous hands and hour markers on my Rolex never reach that level, even if put under a bright lamp, and what luminosity is achieved quickly diminishes.

    Lume has come a long way, and so has Far Eastern manufacturing. There's some incredible stuff out there and for pennies.

    Handsome looking watch. I like it, though I would change the strap.

    It does, Roy.

    Chunky Invicta today, they get slated but NH35 and nice weight makes a nice every day diver, think I paid £45 for it, unworn in as new packaging. Can’t complain at that.

    I did receive this today. Not expensive, but very cool.
