Does anyone know how teh lume is on teh Gen J12? Is it like the reps just the hands and nothing on the dial? i.e. Dial markers?

thanks in advance!

Bought my wife the 38mm white J12 with diamond markers a couple of years ago......it was a weak moment.

I compare the lume to my modded reps and gen Omega.

On the J12 there is very little lume area - the hands are narrow, and there are tiny lume spots at the hour markers. Maybe different to the model without diamonds at the hours, but at the weekend we were out with friends and one of the wives had that model. looked like roman numerals at the hours, and again tiny lume spots at the hour marker. So I'd say probably the same lume effect as my wife's one.

After charging it glows nicely, but the markers are just points. The hands are OK though.

However it seems to fade fairly quickly.

The glow is probably there, but due to the small surface areas you don't pick out the markers well. The hands better, but again they are just narrow strips.

When charged the effect is similar to my 113 - hands and hour marker spots.

If the rep only has hands, then it's missing the hour marker spots.

So you are saying the gen does have lume on the hour markers on the dial?

thanks
