If and when I go back to the Rolex well (like you thinking of dumping dust catchers), I'll make the same move you did but to the white dial. Congratulations!! Thanks Mark ![]() Your words r APPRECIATED, Selling all the S*@T I used to collect 2 purchase the last two Rolex's is THE best decission I've made in quite awhile.. But now I'm runnin' out of crappy pieces to sell, which in turn means I'm gonna have to come outa pocket from now on ![]() The white dial is too dressy for me I'm a jeans & t-shirt man ![]()

Not sure I understand why the lume is poor. Was this an old stock model per chance? Not sure what Rolex is using for lume these days.

Excellent choice and color from the House of Rolex, William. I would have chosen black, too. Just curious why lume is weak. Rolex has decent lume, though. Big Congrats on the Expy2 ![]()

Lume is weak that's all I'm saying, but It's not like I'm going cave exploring or diving anytime soon, since I live in the desert![]() I just thought it would glow alot more

No don't think it was ,I just thought It would be alot brighter then it is, it's not like theres no lume, but I'm a LUME nut, so sometimes I compare something like Seiko's lume which I should'nt.

Does the lume need charging or does it glow on its own. I recall my old GMT II glowed without charging for many years before it went dark. Either way, it is a classic watch that is not always easy to find. ![]()

My experience with my GMT II is that you are never going to be overwhelmed by the lume but it is VERY persistent!! The lume is long lasting with little charge though never blinding. I would classify it as excellent.
