as I've seen differences between newer and older "luminova" dials - after the same charging time/condition...
But then I have been told that the material [(Super)Luminova] does not suffer any practical aging.
Maybe the material itself does not "age" per se, but been applied on a dial for a longer period do expose it to more air/moisture perhaps?

Lume test

Watches without light shock Watches after 10 seconds light shock I am sure you can pick the odd one out of the bunch is a non-Rolex. It however out shines the Rolex watches. ...  

BB surprisingly is strongest. Explorer 3,6,9 also lume so comes second.

Datejust is not bad either. Most interesting one is the Milgauss, hour and minute hands have a different colour to the markers.

an interesting and quick test..

but lume also ages, so is the Tudor BB a much newer watch among the others..

Their lume fades but still tells the time.

I was surprised by the Milgauss as that was manufactured in 2007. I can read the time in the middle of the night. Datejust, Explorer and GMT have similar strength. Tudor BB is too new to go through real life tests.

Cool picture. Feels like the Tudor is on steroids!

Thx for pics, need to do that once the new Tudor METAS BBay arrives here. Panerai's TRON is the one to beat imho. ...
