Jared,

First off, congrats on your 16550, it's a real beauty.
Given that the manufacture of your watch precedes the introduction of Luminova by a good few years, I think your 24 hound is almost certainly tritium, unless it's a Luminova replacement that someone installed during service.

For what it's worth, the tritium lume on my last 16550 still glowed faintly at night. So maybe yours still has some juice left.

All the best,
-GW
