Folks - what brands (other than Ball - I already own some pieces) do you recommend if I want long lasting value and tritium gas tubes that glow so brightly thought the night?

I have a Luminox as a beater that I quite like. It’s quartz but not really a bad value.

Tritium, by its very nature, cannot provide long lasting value. I had a Luminox that was pretty cool, but relatively quickly lost the “wow” radiance of the glow. There are some good watches that have impressive lume that come to mind, namely the Pelagos, that is consider before getting more Tritium pieces.

Ball has long lasting value??

Ball is a quality piece!

Good Morning all,

Since I pivoted into TA (from the Wild West known as Finance) Tech Recruiting has always been the goal. But I’m having a hard time finding a way to get into that space (I do understand there’s a hiring crisis). Nevertheless, does anyone know of tech companies that are hiring? I may be low on the experience side so I’m willing to look at contract/ entry roles as well. Also, any advice will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Oh well, guess I won’t be going underwater. Just kidding haha - I think it’s cool and I do like that they ditched the HEV

Went in to check compare sizes for an Aqua Terra (green dial) but now torn between that and Moonwatch Sapphire (manual wind but the case in the back is just 😍)

Surprisingly the Moonwatch felt smaller (even though it’s 42mm vs 41mm Aqua terra) but I’m not sure about the manual wind tbh - worried I’d break it

This is going to be my main watch for the next 20+ years so I want to make sure I pick correctly!
