Which cool lume watch to get???

Hey guys!

Would love your thoughts on watches with funky and unique lume.  I think somehow watch lume calls to my inner 6 year-old, and it's become the #1 criterion for my watch collecting!  

Up for your consideration:

  •  The A. Lange & Sohne Zeitwerk Honeygold Lumen - Obviously the top pick...  but don't think I'm ready to sell both kidneys to buy yet
Image
  • The Bamford X Revolution GMT Joe Cool - They only made 100 of these, so they sold out in like 3 milliseconds!  It even came with a fully lumed-up Snoopy dog house!!!
Image
  • The Christopher Ward C1 Worldglow - Totally reasonable price for a world timer... plus lume!
Image

I guess the real question for you all is this:  Should I go ahead and get the CW Worldglow?  Anybody have any experience with it?  Or should I hold out and wait for someone like Bamford to do a lumed Pokemon watch with fully-lumed Pokeball packaging?

Any thoughts and suggestions welcome!

The lume on that CW is awesome. I wasn't even aware of that watch (or the Bamford Joe Cool), but I also like the lume on the CW Moonglow.

Another watch with interesting lume is the Omega Speedmaster Snoopy from 2015.

P.S. I had tried adding images to this post, but they didn't get included, even though the green icon appeared when loading them.

The Snoopy Speedmaster is amazing!  Everything is lumed!  The only problem is that I would have to sell my car, all my clothing, all the furniture in my house, plus maybe offer to do lawn mowing at $10/hour on the weekends as a 3rd gig to afford that watch!

Yeah, the current market price for the Snoopy Speedmaster is pretty crazy. But it's still less than the A. Lange & Sohne Zeitwerk Honeygold Lumen :-)

Guise, guise, guise...  one more contender!

  • The Farer Roche Worldtimer - Also relatively reasonably priced!

i know you're probably looking for good watches, but if your collection as a ''lume'' theme i feel like you should definitively have one timex with indiglo. Even a super cheap childish looking one as a beater or maybe a vintage one could be cool.

·

Ah...  you mean something like the Timex Fairfield Supernova?  Classic Timex for $49.99 on Amazon!  Now, that's something I can afford!

the Ming 18.01 was a limited run diver with pretty awesome lume. Besides that though, the diving bezel is innovative and overall, within the dive category of watches it’s an original design (photo credit : @waitlisted)

(Image failed to load!)My soon to be 5 year old Son luvs Lume, so I’ve built him a luminous watch, recycling the dial from his Grandfathers watch. 
My watch obsession started at this age, so hopefully another subscriber!

Look at the microbrand zelos, got some nice stuff there with lots of lume

You got me to do a little web search which lead me to this:

which of course reminded me of Toy Story:

I’m sorry, what was the question?

Wow! These lume shots shown here are awesome!!! 😍 I don’t have any watch with lume as cool as these at all.
