 Got this in the mail today. A great looking Archimede Pilot watch. 42mm satin finished case, 2824-2 ETA inside, nice leather strap, and a crisp, bright white dial with contrasting black numbers. Lume on the hands and indicies is fair to good. Hands glow much better and longer in limited testing so far. It is very easy to read the time on this baby. Sapphire crystal front, mineral back. Yes, I could have gotten a black dial, but I have so many it was time for a white one. :)

I figured not... I saw this one too and was gonna shoot you a link but I was late to the party. Kinda serendipitous, eh? Enjoy it. If it sorta glow, do it need to go?toon1.gif

I dunno on the glow yet. Oscar getting me the Robert Magnum has kinda spoiled me. Even so, the glow on this one seems only adequate. I'll test it more late tonight. watch2.gif BTW, you are correct on the sharp print on the dial. It is very precisely done.
