I love watches and I collect them. I'm sure others do the same. So let's see a pic of your watch or any that you've taken.

I'll start.

Oyster perpetual datejust. You might want to search for posts by Daytona. He's the watch guru.

I know. I posted in his thread hoping he will reply but he didn't. Have few questions for him so let's hope we hear from him soon.

Ian, does the Lumibright stay lit like that at all times or does it have to be put under a light first?

That's what I was thinking too. If it's constantly like that then I would be worried. The thing that glows in the dark in a watch is really a radio active material. One has to be careful with that.

In Daytona's article he talks about combining exposures to get that effect. Is that what oyu've done here?

I used to be a huge watch fan until I started relying more and more on my cell to get me through the day (appointments, email, etc.). Here's my "watch."
