Let's see your Deep Sea lume!
There has been some discussion going on lately on some peoples Deep Sea lume being blue, and some being green. Post your pics and the year you purchased your Deep Sea. Mine is a G serial, purchased from DavidSW in 2011.

It's weird. Sometimes when I'm outside in the sun and head back indoors, the lume is much more blue in color. When it's completely dark, like the example in my picture above, the lume is bluish/green in color.

The RSC in Beverly Hills described the lume color to me as more of a "Tiffanys blue" color rather than a deep blue that I was expecting from the brochure.

Its blue but of course the marketing material is going to look different than in reality... This is how everything is IMO

Yeah, I guess so. But, honestly, I wasn't expecting the difference to be so dramatic.

Remember many men have a color blindness where certain shades of green and blue look the same. You basically have to have them side by side to see the difference in colors!!!

Is it me or does this look more blue? I let the lume charge in the sun as opposed to an LED flashlight. In the first pic the lume was charged with the flashlight.
