Lume comparison

Here is a pic for Geo..smiling smiley
The lume comparison of the vintage luminvoa in PAM411 and the normal luminvoa in PAM0.
Managed to take a pic on Sunday since it was rather sunny (it has been raining heavily in Singapore last week). Needed the sunny weather so that I need not use flash.



As you can see from the picture, the PAM411's luminova is indeed vintage looking, like an aged tritium..the finger smiley Comparing to the vintage luminova in PAM360, I think the PAM360 looks more vintage....


Cheers!

Thanks for sharing, Chua smiling smiley

The faux patina on the 360 is very yellow indeed. Less subtle than those on the Boutique Editions. However, when it lumes in the dark, it still looks green smiling smiley

Hi KS,

Nice comparison. They are very 'different'... I am still awe over the fonts on the numerals used on the boutique editions and noticed, they are 'slimmer' the finger smiley

I like the not too yellow hue but if it has a DLC/PVD case, the yellowish luminova, will be as sexy as the 360...

Thanks KS,

Cheers,

ciao Chuaks,indeed the "vintage luminova" touch is beautiful....But from a pragmatic point of view i'd like to make a comparison in the dark...Which one is more visible and lasts more ?

bye from Milano,

I'll get back to you when I am home on Thursday
and see the pictures on my computer.
Thanks Chua,

You're right. The font used

seems thinner, both the numerals as well as the wordings 'Luminor Marina' and 'Panerai'. It's looks nice with the vintage lime.
Yes PVD/DLC case would be nice. winking smiley
Thanks Ken.

Cheers!

Try reducing the brightness

of your iPhone LCD. You can see the different in the lume when the LCD display of the phone or computer is dimmer..smiling smiley

The lume in the PAM360 indeed looks more yellow, and looks perfect with the black case of the PAM360. the finger smiley
Thanks for the pic!

The normal luminova

Seems to glow better, from my observation. After taking the pics of these 2 watches near the window, I noticed that when I brought these watches back to the darker part of the room, the lume in PAM0 glows well, but not the PAM411.
Let me take some pics of the PAM411 in the dark for you...smiling smiley

Ciao,
