Hey Guys! I just bought a Aviator leather strap today at Far Eastern Watch 313!

But I was a bit disappointed with the lume, issit suppose to look very faded?

Mine look like a light stick that has almost reach the end of life. Not as bright as some of the pic I have seen

Benny Use this chart I got it from other website
If the luminous markings on a watch are reasonably sized and arranged, the readability in the dark is primarily determined by their total light emitted. In order to assess the relative merits, the light intensity of two dials with identical markings by mb-microtec trigalight (BALL H3-watch ) on one and SuperLumiNova on the other, were measured and compared.

The results, with the light intensity expressed in the unit “nanocandela” (ncd) are given below.
after (in darkness) 0 min. 5 min. 1 hour 8 hours
BALL
(in nanocandela) 6000 6000 6000 6000
LumiNova®
(in nanocandela) 10000 6000 400 30

The radio luminescent trigalight of the BALL watch remains constant, while the purely phosphorescent light of the SuperLumiNova may initially be brighter but diminishes within minutes and becomes progressively less luminous.

Don't think so I think retail price is $5950.00 Nice dedicated watch.

hi all, im new to watches but happened to see a nice ball watch..does anyone know if there is still a sale of the moonlight special under the trainmaster

[titanian20]

hI Bro, Yes he is right. In fact Aviator is so far the brightest in terms of gas tube as it is a double size one...

Enjoy your watch man.... You will like it

The pics u see in the forum are typically taken in a dark environment or through the use of a long exposure. H3 tubes (even T rated) do not glow as bright as freshly charged superluminova lume. However, SL lume starts to fade with time and thats when the H3 lume will be brighter than SL. H3 lume will be bright in a dark evironment, not in a semi-lit or well-lit environment.

Hey fellow ball owners,

I'm somewhat new to this forum.. have been reading abit but not posted much before =)

Just came home with my new Ball Aviator watch with steel bracelet. Was kinda captivated by the large size (46mm) and wanted to have a feel of Ball watches because I have always thought of owning one. Some people may find it too plain looking. However, im pretty satisfied with the neat look of the watch.. definitely not complicated or sophisticated. It really depends on the feel you want from a watch. The lume is nice and bright as well. Not sure how durable it really is, but on the whole, the watch feels great and definitely a bang for the buck =)

Those looking for a huge watch that looks neat on the wrist and not too costly may wish to consider getting 1!! (wow i sound like some promoter)

My 2 cents =x

Congrat! more ball will come, haha..!
