[SeikoSRPD59] Not sure why other watchmakers don't look at Seiko, and think "we need good lume like them!" Am I crazy? (alien.top)

Seiko lume is excellent, but a lot of micro brands are heaping on the BGW9 and C3 and give Seiko Lumibrite a run for their money. At the end of the day tho, Ball Watch tritium tubes bests them all

I’ve got a diver like that with heaps of BGW9. Fully lumed bezel to top things off; thing glows.

Tritium in fact doesnt glow as bright as phosphorescent lume, but it doesnt need to be charged and also dont fade (for at least 25 years lol)
