Help: Sub no date - lumed like a christmas tree

[ben_a34]

This thread got 160 odd views so far, would be interesting to know, how many people went straight to their watch collection and checked the lume on all their Rolexes, just to make sure

BRB, just checking! ... This is the kind of thing I'd not notice/look for until someone pointed it out.. then of course never be able to unsee!

ben_a34 I almost didn't dare to check my other watches. My hands were shaking - but luckily they're fine.

Finally, a tell that is potentially visible from ACROSS THE ROOM... a very dark room, but a room none the less. :bleh:

yes BOSSK My First watch that can only be worn it bright daylight. And the first one where I can't wait for the lume to fade.

Also can't wait for the next thread of somebody pointing out that the case diameter of some rep model is a fraction of a tenth of a millimeter wider than the gen, which supposedly is "an instant tell".

Lol, now you mention it - your ARF case has lugs that are too fat and the bezel insert is dull and the crown guards are bad- instant tells in broad daylight. This is why I suggest you upgrade to the current best version.

I hear you StreetFighter , and I have not ruled that option out (yet). But to spend that kind of bucks for a watch I already own is just not very appealing. There are so many other nice pieces on my shopping list, and I usually buy one at a time. The current raid situation is not helpful either...
