Thanks for the responses!

@Carl, thank you my friend, I had no idea about a potential loss of accuracy.


Now it has been a few days and it is losing roughly 2 seconds a day- 1 minute a month. I can live with that- is it particularly bad though?


Here's a shot I took yesterday night- I'm actually very pleased with the lume- from what I'd read I was under the impression that it was pretty hopeless but after a day on the wrist outdoors I had these results in the evening, even with quite a few lights on!

It's blue in the photos, but in reality it's a nice blue/green combo, not like the green I'm used to seeing on luminous surfaces.

Welcome & congratulations!

The more I see the Daytona, the more I can't stop thinking about it!
