AP ROO Diver lume shots??

Do any Diver owners have lume shots? I don't think I've ever come across any on the forums. Just wondering how the lume is on the AP.

If you have any, please post them up! Thanks.

Here you go bud! Did it after placing it in front of a light bulb. Brighter usually if exposed to sunlight

Its no Panerai or new rolex lume...but after immediate light its not bad. I dont care about how bright per say past a certain level. But where it does lack a little is how long the lume has energy for.

I had a feeling it wouldn't rival my Sub-C as far as lume, but it doesn't look bad. Not a deal breaker or anything, but I was just curious. I don't think I would take the AP diving as I do my Sub. Or maybe I will...I guess we'll see

I havent had a dive trip since I purchased the AP in the past month, but I will take it on a dive, once....then ill just bring the SD + Suunto.

I dont mind using the watch for what it is at all...i just think the finish on an AP is second to none and already have a hard enough time doing by best to avoid enough obstacles on land from banging into! Ill let the SD take any accidental bangs.

Im not sure why AP doesnt lume the diver like a 112. I mean my 112 you can see CLEARLY all night long. Rolex GMTIIc not very good. And just forget my 2000 no date sub. impossible to see any lume on that thing. Im sure AP has a reason but im a pretty big fan of the 112 lume.
