What is best a custom Rolex or a Rolex that is stuck in custom?

Buy a professional camera and you´re a professional

I did. The test isn’t once it’s been fully charged Jocke! It’s half way through the night when it’s just a smudgy glow.
My Speedmaster has better lume than my Explorer.

My Explorer II Polar and GMT Masters have great lume. Easily legible all through the night. Subs are dimmer, Sky dwellers and Milgauss don't have long lasting lume.

Agreed my Explorer II Polar is also very legible from dusk until early morning hours without any artifical light sources.

Jocke, you’re cheating. It stays light longer at night in Sweden

I had to make bespoke blinds for my car because of those perpetual daylight shenanigans, going to test them in Sweden next week.


If it doesn't work you need to spray my windows black Jocke!!!

The lume on my Speedmaster and my TAG last way longer than the Lume on my Deep Sea .....
I like the colour, and it does look great, just would be nice if it lasted longer...

Wonderful picture!

My polar Explorer II has better lume than my black Explorer II but my OG Pelagos beats them all.
