Hoping to see some other's lume shots

I decided to try to capture the lume on my watches tonight...and was hoping that if other members had some saved lume shots on their computers, they would be willing to share theirs as well. I tried searching for them but they are so spread out that I much prefer this option.

Here is my contribution.

DJ's lume is tired...after "charging" it with an LED flashlight, it dimmed out pretty quickly - here's the best I could do.
Came out a little blurry


Aquaracer's lume is a little better

I want a Sea Dweller so bad, it's killing me inside.

My wife would murder me though. I spend so much time on this forum and looking at other watches, that she regrets getting me my Datejust to begin with.

Beautiful!

And how much did her wedding ring cost?

Chip,

FIRST of all, you owe me an apology for posting such gorgeous pics right after mine! They make my pics look like

Secondly, you owe me a new modem! You just fried my modem!

I will refrain from using profane language, but I laughed to myself when I read Hamilton Jazzmaster as something a little different.

Beautiful lume shots!

Great camera work from all you folks. I have trouble with a simple day shot. No matter though, the tritium on my first generation GMT Master has long since dissapated to near zero so I couldn't take a pic anyway. With a half-life of about 12 years it's to be expected of a fifty year old watch. Would it lower the value of the watch if I had the dial refurbished? Or should I keep it original?

I'm being a smart aleck again. But seriously, for such a cheap watch, Indiglo is pretty cool technology. My 3-year-old loves his Timex with Indiglo! I'll throw one out of Bluesy and SMP too.
