5205G-013 lumed hands - Do they increase legibility?

I really love the dark dial 5205’s but in a lot of pictures it seems the hands can disappear. (I recently flipped a black dial Daytona 116500 because I could not read the time) This is a deal breaker for me. Reading through threads a lot of you report the 5205 is hard to read the time.

I just noticed in the 5205G-013 Patek lumed the hands. Does this make a significant improvement in legibility? I was almost switching over to get the 5235R Regulator because hands seem very legible.

Any 5205G-013 owners experience? Does the lume make a difference?

This will be my first Patek. Appreciate any insights. Thanks.
