That would really depend on the dial you choose, Chad.

The Romans have little or no illumination. The new stick markers are nice and broad as are the hands and heavily coated with Luminova.

So if it's illumination you want, make sure you choose the right dial first!!

Mine has no lumes roman and white gold hands.

leopardprey · 15 February 2007, 12:07 PM

On the hour and minute hand with the little strips of luminova, how do they shine?

Anyone have a Lume photo? Mike?

LOL! I don't think our Mike has a DJ in his collection as far as I know.....only the sports models!!

But I do know that the DJ dial with the stick markers have nice broad ridges in between and those are filled with Luminova.

Not a lume picture, but the hands and markers should give you a fair idea. The Roman dial ones are gorgeous, but useless as far as illumination is concerned.

That white dialed stainless is smashing. :)

Agreed, Jeff. Both my ADs have one each - one of them has it on the new Oyster (as pictured above) and the other on the new Jubilee.....absolute crackers both of them!!

(we seriously need a "Drooling" emoticon!)

JJ Irani · 15 February 2007, 12:53 PM

Here's another beauty with some good Luminova filling, guys!!

mrbieler · 15 February 2007, 12:55 PM

Nah. Now that bezel on the all white would look good, but the bullseye doesn't do it for me.

JJ Irani · 15 February 2007, 12:56 PM

"Bullseye"?

mrbieler · 15 February 2007, 12:57 PM

Looks like a target to me. :)

LOL! Well, I've actually seen that "bullseye" model in the "flesh". Looks absolutely stunning!!

leopardprey · 23 February 2007, 03:14 AM

I am looking at one like the above, but the all Black face. I like the new Oyster Bracelet!

tonelar · 23 February 2007, 04:43 AM

not a DJ, but here is the lume on a quartz model

Solo118 · 23 February 2007, 05:31 AM

If it were me I would rather have Romans then lume... lol

Agreed!! The DJ should be considered more of a DRESS watch rather than a sports one. The Romans look real cool on that baby....why worry about lume?

Guinness · 23 February 2007, 06:09 AM

I have a SS DJ with romans. I have been eyeing the new black dials just because I would like to know what time it is after dark.

I do love the romans though...

astcell · 23 February 2007, 06:38 AM

tonelar · 23 February 2007, 06:41 AM

Martina is an official ambassador for OMEGA. That does look like a solid gold Aqua Terra.
The other girl is Anna Kournikova, also an OMEGA ambassador. She's got on a DeVille.

You can see the OMEGA logo in the background.
