I have the latest version from Mary at WI and the lume is very bright so I would not consider a relume on it. Just my opinion.

Is it worth to relume the latest PAM243 ?

The lume on the noob V2 I have seen has bad lume ( not as good as the round markers!) at "12" and "6" and the at the mar´kers round the small ´second markers!

I have the H factory version of the 243 and the lume is very good, lasts all night.
Here is a quick photo after a 15 second charge with a desk lamp.

WOW, that H factory lume looks great , way better than what I've seen from the Noob factory.
So far nobody has both versions to compare the lume side by side ?

there is a physical side by side somewhere. but its pointless. the Noob wins in every aspect in terms of accuracy, fit&finish. the devil is in the details&Noob nailed that on a pretty good scale with the 243.
i'd say, get the watch, try it out&see if the lume's bright enough for u. if its not, send it to a modder to lume. &if it comes back just the same, well, at least u tried
part of the rep game, now, i'd say.
here's mine, btw.

Hi,
I have a 243 from H -Faktors since 3 month.
The lume is ( for me ) the Same as in my 305 Gen!

Soon I will receive my V2 noob factory, I already have an H so I should be able to do a side by side compassion of the V2 with H, didn't see one so far.
Please do so, although I think the reason why no one did it is because Noob V1 was already judged better than H-Factory in more respects and then whatever shortcomings it had was fixed in V2. That said, it would be interesting to see if the Noob V2 trumps the H-Factory in all respects now.

Yes it is true that the '6', '12' and the small second indices are less bright than the others. BUT according to my understanding, that is correct as per the gen on that series. Since I've not handled the gen 243, let alone that particular series (m?) I cannot compare it to my noob v2.
What I can say, is that the uncharged color of the lume is good, nice milky color with a tint of yellow. I do not feel that it would need a relume, I'd rather give the a7750 a full service for that money

Agree with this. A servicing will be more worth the money. Why do you wanna relume this?
Standard lume of my H version , I don't think it can get any better than this, same color on markers and numbers and the only thing I have brighter than this is some 80 microns lume that can't even be used on watches. The numbers will dim out faster than the markers over many hours as they don't have the same amount of lume applied

The 243M is the Noob V2 right? The lume is perfectly fine in my view.

That would be great guru, but please let us know which series it is, since they keep changing lume application from time to time!
