Smab Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Well folks, how about a poll? How many of you DSSD geeks would buy a DSSD fresh from factory with superlume? I think many of us would be on the fence for such. They have made the ol'SD, as well as GMT Master II and Explorer II with superlume. Aren't there also a Sub with such? WHEN do they make the DSSD with genlike blue superlume?????? Please dear dealers and makers, we have waited long enough! When can we expect such a make? I guess you can sell it for 450-500USD with swiss movement, if you were able to sell the "Ultimate V" for about 400? I reckon most people would offer that kind of money for such a holy grail:-) And by the way, try to get the pearl and circular hour markers right as well, and try to make a little better finished bracelet and clasp - I know you can manage:-) Here is my vote: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneed12 Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 We haven't seen ANY Rolex reps with blue superlume. Blue lume is, from my understanding, not as easy as green to get right. Also, while the new superlumed reps are light-years better than the old ones, the lume still isn't as good as WM9 lume was. They have to apply the lume so think it doesn't always have a smooth surface, and it seems like I've seen a lot of lume that wasn't quite white enough.

Smab Posted July 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Well, the lume on my PAM380N (custom install 292 ceramic caseset) is as impressive as it can get, from my standpoint. I have compared to my GEN SOSF. It is equal or better. Even so, there is bigger areas of lume on the PAM, but it lights up like a torch if you get into the shadow, when been in daylight or sunshine. This is probably the best rep lume for now. I hear H-Factory has the best replume currently, I believe this 380 is a H-factory make. Does not the Explorer II 42mm have blue superlume? Correct me if I am wrong: http://www.1-pc8838....ck-p-12157.html Add says "blue superlumed dial and needles". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
