Lume of old Panerai watches

Hi All,
I'm interested about a pre-owned Panerai, circa 2010.
After 14 years, will the lume still work or does it need replacement? I heard people saying it degrades quite a bit after 15 years.

Thank you,

It will still be strong. Only the early tritium dials will show little glow.

My 112 is from 2012 and is as strong as anything. 10 seconds of daylight and she’s glowing like the sun!
