I sent this watch into Kent Parks to have the hands re-lumed a few months ago and got it back yesterday. Kent did a terrific job matching the color to the dots around the dial. He even added a dab of lume to the second hand tip. Tried it out last night and the watch now glows like a SOB. Before the hands would die off in about 5 minutes while the dial would glow most of the night.

FWIW, this model came from shopnbc.com back when they sold these. This one must have been a dud. All of my newer Graf Zeppelins have come from a different vendor and have stellar lume on the hands.
