Hello to all,

last night i was checking out the lume on my watch (superocean w/new dial) and all that lights up is the hour/min/second hands and the lil arrow marking on top of the numbers (lightly). now! isn't the 6,9,12 suppose to glow too.
(i put the watch under the light for around 30 seconds)
am i doing something wrong or is that all i get cuz it aint all that great!! :(

PS: tried to take pics but camera phone wasn't catching it. :(

thanks

I have the 2007 super ocean and the lume is just fine. Try it under a black light.

Im not sure on the newer models, as I have the older dial, but all of my numerals light up. Maybe someone with the new style can shed some light. (Pun not intended)

New owner here with new model too and they (6,9,12) are not lume, only white colour. Why, I don't know but it does not bother me personnally.

That sounds like yet another reason to favor the old dial. :)
