pedro Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 I'm newbie so be kind one of the favorite things I love is lume (like superluminova) so a watch like a Chronoswiss Timemaster with it big's 44 is amazing, but from this we have no rep so far so help me find a good rep that realy "shines" the new BR 01 seems to be a good one thank's for the time Pedro - Portugal were the sun always shines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victoria Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 Pedro - Portugal were the sun always shines Oi, tudo bom, Pedro! Here's your Bra-Portuguese speaking fellow newbie from England who now lives in sunny Florida (got that?). I believe Josh's ETA Superocean is said to glow like a galaxy: http://www.perfectclones88.com/bl02001-sup...242-p-2597.html It's not cheap, and I'm sure other dealers have them (I heard Ruby does, yesterday, so I was investigating this last night), but there's one option in the Breitling range, for you. E o sol brilha tanto no Portugal que as rosas se machucam, 'tadinhas! Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usil Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 My Railmaster XXL and UPO both came with pretty good lum. Usil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b16a2 Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 A few reps have good lume, but only for a very short period of time. My steelfish is brilliant, then it fades very quickly. My advice would be to choose a watch you really like the look of, and then get it relumed with superlume. Best of both worlds then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ptolomeo Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 No doubt. Davidsen's PAMs. Incredible superlume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornerstone Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Don't forget on the gen front the Seiko Black Monster and Orange Monster for less than some high end reps. These are the kings of lume. Bring your sunglasses... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eunomians Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Yup. Seiko's Lumibrite outshines Super Luminova IMHO. Up next, in the rep world, Davidsen's stuff is excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kollektor Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 I disagree that they don't come with excellent lume from the factory. The Swiss PAM 111H and 177H have EXCELLENT lume, maybe only 10-20% duller than gen. Aside from these two models, I've found lume to be lackluster if you'll pardon the pun. My two pet peeves are lume and AR. Good luck! EDIT: The Ultimate PO isn't half bad at all either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baltic Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 uPO definitely (of the watches I've bought), however that still went to The Zigmeister for a superlume! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregers Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 I might have missed this discussion before, but why do they have such difficulty turning out watches with decent lume. Even the cheapest Timex/Casios usually come with decent lume so why don't our expensive reps? Is it difficult to set up on fairly low volume production runs?

Corgi Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Joshua's Omega SMP Chronometer has very good lume, as do his sports Rolex models - at least my YM glows well. His Omega Seamaster GMT New Version glows well too. I can tell you the biggest danger is with PAMs. I bought a PAM from him.. barely glows at all! Some PAMs of his, maybe the high end ones will glow bright, mine did NOT. But I only paid a hundred bux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
