TIA While I really hate to admit it, the only Lume dial I have is an Invicta. Fortunately, it is one of their early models and they got is right. A very nice classic case with a coin edge and a reliable Miyota 8215 movement. If I could just change the name on the dial....and NO....they did not put the name on the case!!! Come with a rich, brown leather Lorica strap...........$50!!!! And I do luv that Lume Sea Angler!!! ![]() ![]()

Citizen made a lume dial version of the NY0040 diver, but a quick perusal of the Bay didn't turn any up. I love my black dial version, nice alternative to my Seikos, and it was cheap! Good luck! Griff P.S. One of these days I am gonna snag an Orsa, as soon as I get out of the doghouse, yeah, that's it...:? Attachment: citizen040.jpg (Downloaded 82 times)

I love lumn. But, I don't like lumn dials. At least not those with lumn hands. I've sold mine. I found them hard to read as opposed to a good standard lumned dial. When dial is glowing and the hands are glowing as well it is hard to distinguish between the two. At least I found it so. The lumned dials with all black hands and indicies would be preferable.

Those are the preferable styles. Aristo came out with those about 3 maybe 4 years ago. Still the best lumn dial design.
