I bought the Orient Mako XL full lume back in the day for $175. Still an amazing watch.

As a kid i had a Frankenstein model kit that glowed in the dark, loved lume ever since.

I’m a fan of full lume dials & I sure am a fan of Islander Watches. I’ve picked up a ISL-83 & a ISL-106 which are full lume watches & probably the 2 watches I wear the most from my collection. Great job!

That Sands Point is sweet.

Got the full lume islander for Xmas. Beautiful, high quality watch. Love it.

“Achtung, Baby!” Great point about how “negative lume” hands work on full-lume watches.

Mark that bertucci is great! have u seen the new seestern with full lume dial?

I love my Sinn 656L full Lume dial. I had wanted one a while and was planning on buying the Laco as a close runner up when i got offered the Sinn. I love just how legible they are in every condition... just need the exact same thing but in the reverse colours now...

Nice selection. There can never be enough LUME!

I got a full-time Islanders flieger (B dial)... Wearing it right now, in fact. I absolutely love this thing.

Great video Now deciding on just one of these beauty's will be the toughest part of this selection but the chrono is my pick Thanks for sharing as always my friend and Wheels Up My Friend 👍

You really upped your game Marc, that Sands Point blew the competition out of the water, it’s freaking awesome

Nice array of full lume watches. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend!

I own an Alba field gear and a Citizen Promaster Diver, both equipped with a full lume dial, they are so much fun!

You said it; "lume is cool"! 😎 Thanks for sharing ... that Hemel watch is truly spectacular ... after your Islander of course 😁

nice! thanks for sharing Marc!

Bertucci is great. I have their quartz full lume watch on which the face, case, and strap all glow. It's a really fun watch. And that Sands Point is gorgeous.

As someone with "older eyes" I appreciate the talks that you have done on lume, your interview with Mr. Cohen on Tritium and now full lume dials. I have a Maverick which I love but in low light it is not ideal for older eyes. I think its a combination of the 39mm dial , the crystal and the military info all sharing the real estate. Although you were probably going for the period look it probably has to be 41 or 42 mm for it to work well with older eyes. Dial contrast like a Damasko for a Islander price would be amazing. I do own a Tritium watch and appreciate what you were saying about the vertical height you need Keep up the great work.

I've been enamored with full lume dial watches after having seen a long discontinued quartz Citizen Aqualand model AL0004-03W with the orange depth meter, and other dive gadgets. I had to settle for a modern NY0040-50W to scratch that itch. The full lume is like having a watch with multiple personalities. In some light conditions the dial appears cream. Outdoors in the daylight it has a beautiful day glo lime green hue. And in the dark, fully charged by light, it has that ghostly green luminosity like a UFO...sorry, I mean UAP.

I love full lume dials. Just ordered one from citizen.

Great video Marc and great watches. I really want the Bertucci and your Islander, that coral dial is every bit as good as a Grand Seiko dial in my opinion. I need to hold off and save up my pennies, though, as I really have my heart set on one of your grey Laco Frankfurt GMT watches. Gonna be a while unfortunately... hopefully next year for the Laco.

Great segment Marc.

Many years ago, I had a full lume Lorus field watch, and it was excellent in the dark. Some very nice choices there 👍

There is a Muhle Gashutte full lume SAR Rescue driver I've been eyeing. It's so cool. These are also tempting.

Hey the Islander titanium second hand counter balance fits in the logo nicely!

Nice Lume! Mr. Hume! 😎

The Bertucci wins this edition of Northern Hemisphere Lume Wars. Great video.

I've been waiting for the white Islander Monster to come back with the black bezel because I missed out on it. So to satisfy that "need" i bought the orange ISL-94 monster. That white islander monster was beautiful! I just like the black bezel contrast with a white full lume dial!

The Islander and the Hemel are awesome. Marc I am working in NJ for a month, I need to make my pilgrimage over to buy a squale or islander

I put together a lume dial watch a couple years ago and sourced the Island Watch full lume dial for it. I love the way it came out. Glows like a torch!

Got the ISL-62 (Lume Wave) for X-Mas 2021. Still love it.

I really enjoyed this video. Makes me consider getting one or more. Question: You didn’t include the Citizen Promaster Divers with Full Lume Dials, why not? Anyway Thanks for the video!

Marc ! I love my ISL 26 200m full Lume !!! I always get asked about it..

Zelos Comet Tuxedo has some really nice lume

Like the Hemel.

YOU LEFT OUT THE ISLANDER HEMEL COLAB THAT FULL LUME IS BEAUTIFUL

Marc great video as always. What makes the bertucci featured here different from the one I bought for $65 from your website?

That video was very……. Enlightening

I really enjoy my Islander field DLC black full lume.

Wow! It seems like the Bertucci and Laco last the longest. Very cool watches! Was surprised that the Squale was wearing off quite fast. Another one I would add here is the Citizen Promaster NY0040 Full Lume. Can still be found for around $200 or so. Great watch!

VERY COOL!!!

Super fun to see these but for me the Hemel is the one I like enough to look into further though the Islander with the coral dial was an extremely close second. Great video as ever Mark, thank you.

Nice list. It could have started from Lorus Lumibrite. At less than $50, it is as good as the Bertucci here.

I really like the BGW9

Great T-shirt

Nice video but it would have been helpful to do a longevity test. A lot of lume is initially very bright but fades quickly.

You should try WISE Hitman full lumn from Thailand.

What does "end of life" mean on the Bertucci?

The ISL 62 looks great but when I looked at it on the website it has a Japanese wave dial, which looks gorgeous, but different from the vid. I'm not sure if it's titanium either? Digging further, it may be the ISL 161?

My Dad has a full dial lume Mickey Mouse Seiko. If I remember he bought in the 90s.

There's this little company from America that is called Timex they have a system called Indiglo and it will Loom up when you push the button now why can't another watch company do that?

Is there a Fortis B-42 with full lume or is it just white?

Can you get promaster autos for a reasonable price? It seems like they don't sell in the US I want a black one and would buy from you if you had them. The bracelets for NY0040s are fantastic.

Two questions: Why choose to identify the 3rd party movement manufacturer and model (e.g., Miyota 9015) on the dial of several Islander models? Any thoughts on expanding name selection outside of LI on a consistent basis? There are just so many towns and cities but Ronkonkoma would be fantastic :)

Hi Mark, I have seen recently a test about the durance of these full lumed dials. And it comes unfortunately to the conclusion that the lume does only last for about 3 hours 😕. Cheers from Germany, Frank

It's unfortunate you don't have any fully lumed Damaskos in stock, the lume on my DA47 is still plenty bright enough a few hours after its been exposed to a good light source. The plus side of Damasko lume dials is their ability to keep the dial close to white. Best comparison would be against the Laco.

Digging the Laco. I have a Traser officer Pro Lime dial. Bought of the back of Mark's review a few years back.

I don’t mind the yellow for full lume dials.

The Berny Railroad watch should definitely be on this list-you're missing the $80 price point entirely!

I could get 6 or 7 Timex Expeditions with Indiglo for the price of the least expensive one.

Full lume Field Watch seems as accurate as a Desk Diver 😁

bright but very short lived

It would be cool to see how much lume is left on each aftet 30 minutes!

What do you find best to “charge” the lume and on average, how long will it last?

The WISE Hitman is not yellow at all and glows by fare the strongest and longest

Sorry, I can't do a full lume dial if the hands have lume. Even if it is multi colored lume, it is not nearly as legible when it fades. I want a fun negative handset and indices.

loooooom

You can see the lume fading as you are filming, think its a gimmick, prefer the push button light or tritium watches.

You didn't show the full lume Bethpage!

Our. Best. Full. Lume. Dials. 5. Brands. $300. To. $1200.

i really like your watches sir, they are not your same ol same ey kind of watches. there are different enough to be uniquely different from the usual brand of watches. good job sir

Just bring them to Chicago watch ⌚ show. 😂😊

Zeroth

Mark, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE! Produce a 24hr, Tritium 100, Sapphire, quartz watch in the 50mm case range. I already secured a holy grail watch for myself in the Casio GBR-B1000 before it was discontinued and this is the only other watch I covet. The Isobrite 24hr watch, the only T100 24hr watch on the market, is very poor quality and visibility on the dial is poorly implemented.

The spit should make it cost more. That’s famous spit.
