Hmmm, that's a tough one. Not many of these bad boys around here, especially brand new ones. Very curious also.

Someone told me they had a random with the new blue lume. I haven't seen it so I'm not sure if this is true.

Green lume here, but as expected.
I've seen the blue on the SS, so i'm sure it's coming slowly. |

Like Travis, I recall seeing the blue lume on the SS.
Haven't seen it on the YG. |

Blue lume was seen in the newest SS Daytona and GMT Master II LN Ceramic models. I'm guess once the factory runs out of the green ones, they will start only producing blue lumed dials.

Interesting. Didn't know all models will have the blue lume. It looks nice, but glad my GMTIIC LN has a matching green lume. |

I hadn't heard anything official about green lume being discontinued. But it would be interesting to know if they will do this on the green dial 118718.

Blue lume for both!! GMT only a month old with random, if that helps. Will try to post a picture shortly. |
