Lume on 8-10 yr old sub

If you have a sub in the 8-10 yr old range, how long does your lume last at night. I have a speedmaster pro that lasts all night long. I am leaning to the smaller case sub based on my wrist size, but will go brand new if the lume is going to be vastly superior. Thanks for your help

If it's lumina versus tritium which should fall into your age range requirement, then the lume is perfectly fine at night. Obviously the newer models will have better performance but a bigger price tag.

Compared to Omega, Rolex lume sucks. Rolex for whatever reason, doesnt have good lume regardless of age or model..
