Lume color on PAM 212

[swdivad]

Does anyone know what color lume is used on the PAM 212? Is it C1 or C3?

I don't know which it is called, but the newer reps do not have the correct color. The true 212 color is the same as other PAM's. It is supposed to be the yellowish color.

Regards.

C3 like all the Pam reps.

C3 like all the Pam reps.

I am not shure about this: I just read a 212 article in a current watch magazine and the pretty nice pics show a white/ cream tone. Not the greenish one as the C3 does have.

But.... I have never seen the 212 in person.

I've seen the Gen and it's definitely C3. I cannot think of any PAM that uses a different colour except the Tritium types (there is a PAM 24 that uses a very light grey Tritium) and maybe some of the ltd edition Radiomirs use a whitish lume. It's confusing because in the Panerai brochures the lume looks white. I had the same problem judging my 188 which looks white in the pictures but is also definitely C3. Also some photos show the lume as green but that is a result of it glowing slightly under photographic lighting.
