What colour is your lume

What colour are the "Glow-in-the-dark" markers on the GMTII c? I was told that the new Sub c is blue, but my GMT and every other GMT IIc is green. Is this the case or are the sub and GMT suppose to be the same?

The new Sub c markers are coated with the new blue "Chromalight", while the GMT IIc ones are coated with green "Superluminova". So, your GMT lume is ok :-)
