Natevan70 asked me a good question and I'm not really sure. :shock: So looking for that 3T WIS with the answer. LOL :D On some watches you have a circled T as in the pic below. I was told it was for tactical but could not find any solid information on it. Can anyone confirm or give the actual meaning of this symbol on the watch dial. watch2.gif Attachment: circleTa1.jpg (Downloaded 53 times)

I always associate Tritium with tubes like on my T-SAR; not with paint.Thanks to all for the input! Last edited on Wed May 27th, 2009 01:06 am by |

Another thing I love about 3T. Questions most of the time don't sit unanswered for very long at all. :cool:
