Hi

Does Rolex sub no date from 1992 should have implemented lumine(or iridium) markers on dial and hands?

Yeah tritium on a rolex will unlikely glow well and possibly not at all after 20 years . It's ok
Cheers.

I have one about the same age. Just the marker on bezel glows.

12 years is the half life for tritium. Anything beyond that and the tritium will either give off a very degraded light or nothing at all. After 20 years I am not surprised that there is no luminescence at all.

What is the series or style number for the 1992 submariner? I am looking for one and want to make sure I am looking for the correct style.
Thanks
