The lume is a very pleasant pastel blue, almost like a sky blue. It looks stunning against the white gold hands/markers and the deep black laquered dial.

Does the blue Superluminova have a different appearance from the green in direct light? The green SL tends to look a bit green-ish in direct sunlight. I'm wondering if the blue looks whiter, and thus possibly more appealing.



Not really. The link you posted is an accurate representation of the lume color. But the Sub and GMT lume is not nearly as noticable in daylight as a Breitling. On the GMT I had I never noticed a greenish tint in sunlight, same with the Sub. I've always assumed Rolex, like some other brands, puts a thin coating of paint over the lumed hour markers to reduce this effect. Could be wrong. In any event the lume is more subtle than, say, a Steelsfish (what isn't?) and doesn't blind you on the intial charge, but does last as long.

Hey Tom, did you made any changes on the clasp pics you posted on photobucket?

They're not visible anymore, at least for me.
