What’s the most impressive about the wicked watch company lume is it’s BGW9(blue) Which is by nature less bright and in my experience never lasts as long. It has always been my favorite so I’m always in search of a watch with good BGW9 lume. Thanks for fun video Chris!
The Wicked Pearl Diver really does have next gen lume. It's absolutely fantastic. I loved my time with the watch. I was sad to have to let it go to the next reviewer.
Question: what kind of lume is it on the Wicked watch? Is it blue lume bgw9? Is there a choice of having the green lume C1X1 (whatever) on it? And if there is, which one would you choose? Thanks
Great vid man! Zelos is misleading because the initial brightness is great, but they fall out super quick, except for their full lume dials. That Wicked does great...only thing I’ve seen that good is Helson. And the beauty of the wicked over Helson is the initial glow...Helson is almost too much initially, the wicked is just right.
The prototype in the video uses BGW-9 Grade A ef which is a little bit less bright than the C3 x1 GL ef, which is the brightest lume along the Swiss SuperLuminova line offered currenlty. We all love some nice glow in the dark I think and as seen on the video, many do not apply enough for longer lastings results. I was doing some research on the lume and how to make it last longer and I think we are on the right way, considering here was our prototype^^
@dinner_workingsly Love my Helson :) can't wait for them to re-stock their Sharkmaster. On another note, I wonder how Helm (like the Khuraburi or Vanuatu) would have fared in this lume war
The best loom wars ever 👌if I told anyone I watched a show about how long loom lasts and I just watched a three hour show " IDGuy" looking at Watches they would think I'm nuts - Crazy Hobby , Thanks Chris 🙏
Nice review Chris Very instructive about the lume . I just received the zelos swordfish I did a review the lume is excellent but with others watches maybe not a winner , stay safe
Great Video! I admit I thought the Zelos would do better. I don't own any of these. It helps to get a comparison like this to use as one decision point. Thanks Again!

Love these Lume Battle vids!!!
The Wicked Watch is very cool. Especially on that strap. Nice collection.

Just backed the Pearl diver on Kickstarter...super early bird is already gone. Amazing value and looks to be one of the best packages/kits...EVER!

What a win for the Wicked Watch Pearl Diver...can't wait for the kickstarter.
How did the full lume face hold up in comparison?
This video is a couple of years old now. Have there been technological advancements with lume and what watches have the best lume today? Thank you!
As an admitted lume junkie, I love these videos 👍👍
Was already mostly sold in the Wicked Watch just from reviews, this sealed the deal. Great vid and enjoyed the lume competition!!
Can you show the watches with the light on after the battle?f..!,now i have to decipher which one it is
Surely it's the lume on the hands that matters for everything without a lume dial... The point isn't to check there's still chapter markers!

@@wickedwatchco.7556 I think you’ve pretty well nailed it....kudos! 👍🏼🔦☢️
thank you very much

@@shawn1928 I’ve got both…not as well as the Helson. Armida and Ithyus have crazy bright lume
Seiko also done equally well..
1:39 what is that? far & swit it sounds like? whatever brand & model it is I really like it :)
I think it was Farr & Swit Wayfinder mate…
for 12 hours of darkness for telling the time at 5 am what woulld you choose? wicked watch co or tritium? marc and sons ?
You cant beat tritium for the 5am look. It is the brightest thing in the room at that time.
I’m getting the SWC Bunker very soon sooo ... I’m all set! (Top 3 at least)
The bunker is an amazing watch, love mine
@FrankLavoy I have one too, the most recent generation. i love it. and they're releasing a titanium bracelet very soon

Thanks for the videos!
wish you had a citizen diver in there would have possibly won or second
that Millipede style strap of chopard is cool, is that leather?
The black tip isn't the best Zelos for this test. The Mako would do much better or Sword fish etc. Seiko is always impressive.
Nice review Chris Very instructive about the lume . I just received the zelos swordfish I did a review the lume is excellent but with others watches maybe not a winner , stay safe
Whats the name of the full lumed torch?
It's a Farr and Swit (Farr+Swit) 'Wayfinder Sweeping Quartz'.
/watch?v=WiCtPVcl7Sk
If SWC puts so much lume into their Bunker (a field watch!), I wonder what their diver must look like? Hmm
I don’t understand why the wicked watch won. You can’t see the hour hand at all….. it’s totally gone.
3:42 is where the test starts
Great Video! I admit I thought the Zelos would do better. I don't own any of these. It helps to get a comparison like this to use as one decision point.
Thanks Again!
Great video! Thought the SWC would have done better, but I guess the cast lume Wicked uses is crazy bright. 🤪
subscribed and thumbs up based solely on the intro music....LOL
great reveiw !!
Thought the ithyus on the list...!? It's one of the watches u did a review for and bi was amazed by the lume
Put the Orient trident or Kamasu and that Seiko would be ashamed!
Have you sold the Glycine ?
No way just didn't include it... Have too many watches...
@@WatchChris great watch too, but in lume it wouldn’t have been an honorable mention in that lineup....it just doesn’t glow for long enough.
Thought the ithyus on the list...!?
