Nice and clean lume!

Did AP use the same color as when the watch was first sold (not considering the intensity/brightness)?

Yes. When the watch was sold it was tritium and this is luminova. In my pic looks somewhat blueish but is really green.

It's nice to have the functionality of the Lume. If vintage matt dial Rolexes didn't lose value with replacement luminova dials I would get one for my 1675. It's nice to see the time in bed.

Thanks for the update! I have a hard time capturing my green lume as well. It easy to read in very dark places.
