I thought I would ask this question here before GX9901 had a chance! Is there any concern with regards to the lumed bezel and salt water? Do I need to worry about the lume paint prematurely deteriorating? Silly question? Thanks! |

the Meg is a genuine dive watch and the lume bezel will hold up without any issues....but with any watch you wear in saltwater you need to rinse it thoroughly with tap water afterwards.hand6.gif |

when I rubbed paint into the worldiver lume bezel on the black dial version... not the orange and blue one I ahowed, but a different one... anyway, I rubbed it vigorously with paint thinner and alcohol and the lume paint was just fine... I was scrubbing the lume with chemicals to get some paint off of it. |

Thanks for the replies...I assumed that the chemical composition of the lume paint would be conducive to a saline environment but never hurts to ask! Good advice to rinse after salt water immersion...something I sometimes forget! |

It speaks well of Benarus quality if you're willing to torture 'em. Can't wait to get mine! |
