icedtheater Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Do any rep watches have tritium in them? I've decided I want tritium in my next watch *be it genuine or a replica* that is also automatic. There are only a few watches that I know of that fit those two requirements. Luminox 1600, Traser Classic Automatic, and then Ball brand watches. Granted if money weren't a concern, I'd just straight up have a Ball, but it is and therefore the question Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trinsic Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Ball uses gas lights instead of tritium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icedtheater Posted February 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Same thing. Quote from Ball's website "The BALL solution to the problem of reading time in the dark is the Self-Powered Micro Gas Lights (3H). This Swiss technology safely captures pure tritium gas in a mineral glass tube coated with luminescent material." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Do any rep watches have tritium in them? I've decided I want tritium in my next watch *be it genuine or a replica* that is also automatic. No replica will have tritium in it as it counts as a WMD in large enough quantities to use it industrially. It's a starter for fission bombs to obtain higher yields. If you're looking for a cheap automatic watch with Tritium, then you should look no further than the SUG Nautilus. Epoch over on RWI sells them cheap.
