I love wearing a watch. Heck. I even wear one in bed!
My go to watch when reading the time in the darkness is required is my............
OMEGA

I would have to say that this watch is at least 50% more legible at night than any of my Breitlings

Yes, Omega and Panerai are renowned as being exceptionally good on the Superluminova front. Breitling just never seem to use as much.

The lume on the SOHC is not very good except on the hands. My Oris is better than the Breitling.

i thought the lume on my SA was pretty good but placing my SA and my Rolex GMT 2 under a flourescent light for 10 seconds showed that the lume on the Rolex was far brighter and took longer to fade.

i really want a 'constantly lumed' Ball watch just to wear at night, now that would be a luxury.
