Ask again in perhaps 30 years time Luminover in general should last the lifetime of the watch.

I have read that Luminova does not fade like Tritium used to fade. Having looked at 12 year old Seamasters, for example, I would tend to agree that there's no change in the luminosity after that amount of time. It lasts.

Luminova's life time will become shorter is it because it contact with light?

If the Luminova is well kept in a safety place which is without the Sunlight one will its life time become longer?

You're asking questions no one can answer. Luminova has only been around since the late 90's. It's supposed to last much longer than tritium.
