Chromalight hands and markers.

Hello

I've just seen a new SS Daytona for sale which apparently has the new 'blue glowing Chromalight hands and markers'.

I've just done a search on this forum but I can't find and reference to these, has anyone else heard of these and if so, have any information about them?

Thanks

Not sure what you are asking....

Rolex has changed from the old green luminova and moved to blue lume.. Their name for it (Rolex likes to have their own names for things) is Chromalight.

It is not a big deal.. Some of the ladies models have pink or yellow lume.. All of the new ceramic models use blue..

Not sure when they began using Chromalight on the SS Daytona, but several have been reported on the Forum recently

Ahhhhh!

I thought this might be something new, I can't remember hearing the blue lume being called Chromalight before.

Thanks for the info.

The thing to remember is an older Daytona can always have newer hands - so don't judge the book by it's cover
