To lume or not to lume? That is the question
There’s been a lot of interest and discussion recently on the merits of lume on watches. For me, I have some and my choice falls into four groups - brighten the night, full lume; hands lumed only; tritium; and just polished hands. Full lume is good in the early evening and swimming, but can be distracting for dress. Hands only, and polished hands as better for dress and work pretty well and tritium is my wake up at 4AM choice. What about you all?

Always interested in variety, but must be useful

Gun-to-my-head-have-to-pick-one-option its gonna be A, but not indiglo full lume.
That said, I have the whole variety
Tritium all the way! I'll take consistent greatness over occasional brilliance.
Brighten the Night and since you can't see much else "look at me." On a cloudy night I am a damn good substitute for the moon.
Is there such a thing as too much lume? I haven’t seen it yet.
