paul2307 Posted January 4, 2015 Report Posted January 4, 2015 I love my watches with bright lume... which rep watches (without relume job) have the brightest lume and for the longest time ? 1
508-Fanatic Posted January 4, 2015 Report Posted January 4, 2015 Honestly, the ones that get relumed lol... sorry, just the way it is from what I've seen. Some Noob Rolex's might be okay, but relume jobs are the best way to go if you want it bright.
TmeShare Posted January 5, 2015 Report Posted January 5, 2015 There are a few Pam 111 that have strong and bright lume. The most accurate answer is no specific brand or model of rep, ask you TD about the lume or read the description. Do not go by the sellers lume pics alone as they can be misleading. TimeShare
Nightwatch Posted January 5, 2015 Report Posted January 5, 2015 The (expensive) Blancpain FF has consistently strong lume. From mine the 16570 Explorer does very well too as does the PAM 212 Flyback and the Br Superocean Steelfish. PAMs may be very bright but it also varies a lot in more recent times.
HaydenM Posted January 5, 2015 Report Posted January 5, 2015 The problem with statements like "this rep has the best lume" is that in the rep world the QC can differ in each watch meaning some of a watch will have good lume while others not so much. If you want the best lume then a relume is probably required.
GenTLe Posted January 5, 2015 Report Posted January 5, 2015 In my collection the best lumed ones are: - Blancpain FF - Omega LMPO Noob version - Tudor BB - Panerai 164 (not sure if H or Noob factory, it was my 1st rep, got it from Trusty - Andrew) - Graham Cronofighter classic from Noob Factory (in special @Torobravos)
martijnp Posted January 5, 2015 Report Posted January 5, 2015 I think the best lume is on my Panerai 104, 251 and the 111 (she is sold now) Also the lume on AP 26400au is fantastic! Also very bright but not so bright as above are my Tudor BB and TC Rolex 16610lv
pcardoza Posted January 5, 2015 Report Posted January 5, 2015 I can't quite grasp why so many seem to have such a fascination with lume...... Other than my Luminox, none of my watches (gen or rep) glow brightly in the middle of the night. A few are somewhat readable (Omega PO's, Hublot 4000 King Diver), but none glow brightly for more than an hour or so after being in direct light.
GenTLe Posted January 5, 2015 Report Posted January 5, 2015 This I'd like to have... And probably will beat any luminova around (can you see the 3 tritium tubes in the hands and the 12 hour markers ones?):
Aero_Dave Posted January 5, 2015 Report Posted January 5, 2015 This I'd like to have... And probably will beat any luminova around (can you see the 3 tritium tubes in the hands and the 12 hour markers ones?): I had the JSAR: But the question was Best REP, so I'd have to go with the Graham myself: Dave...
Mike on a bike Posted January 6, 2015 Report Posted January 6, 2015 TC sub, glowed like gen as I had new gen insert so kept up with Rolex pearl. Now others may have more lume applied but as far quality you will not need relume. PS have a Gen luminox with tubes , you want long lasting go tritium. here a new from Borealis 316L stainless steel case 316L stainless steel bracelet with split pins and diver extension clasp case size: 44 mm width lug width: 24 mm signed screw down crown water resistance: 300 meters or 30 ATM sapphire glass with anti-reflective coating inside 90 clicks unidirectional external bezel with tritium T25 tube marker at 12 dial with 12 pieces of tritium T25 tubes Tritium tubes manufactured by Mb-Microtech in Switzerland watch hands with 3 pieces of tritium T25 tubes (hours, minutes and seconds) Seiko automatic movement NH35 manufactured by Seiko Instruments Inc.

droptopman Posted January 6, 2015 Report Posted January 6, 2015 The Lume on the otb Noob explorer 2 v2 was really good and lasted well on the piece I had. It's that funky blue color but it did really glow. Sent from my droptop using telepathy.
damanisjon Posted March 1, 2015 Report Posted March 1, 2015 My noob pam111 has crazy lume comparing it to a lot of the reps I've seen
richard.isted99 Posted March 2, 2015 Report Posted March 2, 2015 Who has the best sub? ... Just kidding.
ChefEduardo Posted March 2, 2015 Report Posted March 2, 2015 My noob pam111 has crazy lume comparing it to a lot of the reps I've seen This. Sent from my brain.
sgtguk Posted March 2, 2015 Report Posted March 2, 2015 Gotta say that my Pam 111 and the 029 Gmt are pretty bloody good If you love your lume though you must have your dial relumed by one of the modders on here, Vac comes to mind immediately on any watch you wanna name, just be prepared for a long wait to get your watch back
icoopernicus Posted March 3, 2015 Report Posted March 3, 2015 My PAM 111 and LMPO are easily my best lumed reps, by far. Next is my Noob 116610 Sub Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
TmeShare Posted March 4, 2015 Report Posted March 4, 2015 I have many of the watches shown in this thread/post such as the Graham, the BFF, the Explorer II and many watches that are not shown but I have to agree with those that stated the Noob PAM 111 is the strongest lume and more importantly the longest lasting illumination.
