Thought I'd share. It's embarrassing for AP indeed

AP are selective about their lume for some reason, very good on the RC for example, but then it is also a shock that Breitling and Omega lume is generally far better than Rolex's.

Nice Pam!

AP has always lacked in the lume dept, the Pelagos is still the best I've owned or seen

Indeed. The AP pales in comparison (pardon the pun)

That's pretty good effort compared to black lume on white dial Diver.

Is there any valid reason as to why AP lume is relatively weak in comparison to others?

Cuz AP look great in daylight and they don't care when light is off?

It's lazy but I don't care one bit. Ferraris are s#%€ off-road as well. I'm happy to hand out passes.
