My Ball Pilot GMT has H3 (Tritium) microtube lume on the hands and dial indices, and Super Luminova on the 24 hour rotating bezel. I sleep with my watch on so I can quickly tell the time when I wake up in the middle of the night. The H3 tubes will glow nonstop for 25 years.

It's weird being the same age as old people.

Neat! I did always think that Ball watches were really niche, undersung/"sleepers" of quality. I tried on one about a year ago & the bracelet was wildly uncomfortable. It was an Engineer somethingsomething.
