Woo Hoo... tritium still works.

Hey guys.

Last night I fell asleep with my Sub on. It dates back to 1993 according to the serial number and info from the RSC when I got it back from service. I've had it for the last 10 years since my 21st birthday.

I'd thought that the tritium had long since reached its half life and given up the glow.

When I woke up for a, ahem, pit-stop , I realised the watch was looking back at me. Mind you it was pretty dark and my eyes were probably extra sensitive, but there it was... all 11 indices and 3 hands and the pearl... glowing...

Just thought I'd share this and see if anyone else's tritium is still glowing.
