48mm chonk with all of the raised markings and numerals made of 30+ tritium tubes.

I’m really digging the stick style lume plots here.
They’re stupidly bright too. I can put it under a T-shirt in the dark and still see it shining through. Stupid levels of legibility for quick glances in the dark.
That’s awesome man. I don’t know why but bad lume is a major deal breaker for me, especially on 2k+ Swiss watches.
I find it egregious that a $150 heimdallr can offer insane lume that lasts all night, and the big Swiss names often times get away with providing lume that’s complete shit.
I can’t tell you how many watches I haven’t bought solely because the lume sucks on it.
That’s probably not a bad thing though! lol
I have that issue with every SuperLuminova watch that I have, which is part of why I went for this one. All of the applied markers are tritium gas vials, so they glow violently, but only for 10 or 15 years. I have pistol sights one a few of my guns that use the same tritium vials for low light shooting. I love the stuff. Check out the rest of Ball’s line, almost all of their watches use tritium.
Ah gotcha ok, I didn’t realize it was tritium. I’ve never owned a tritium watch.
My problem is that I love both good lume and vintage style watches. The Venn diagram between those two things has very little overlap lol.
I’ve found a couple that are pretty good, but it’s uncommon.
Nice watch! It sure is large.
Very. It’s functional though. In my line of work, you’re often in the dark with your hands full. Quick glance legibility is what I was after with this one. But also LORGE statement piece.
