126710 Pepsi Under Blacklight - Could Ceramic Bezels Fade Over Time?

Very cool photos of my ceramic pepsi under a black light. The whole bezel becomes red!! Do you think that these ceramic bezels will fade over time and become completely red?

If I had to make a guess I would say it will fade, but the process is probably going to be so slow we'd have to wait at the least 100s of years to start noticing effects. Perhaps it would be so slow that the watch it came on would not be a watch anymore due to a lack of parts. So for the most part, it doesn't matter. However who knows. Maybe 20 years from now we start seeing interesting fading on the ceramic bezels.
