    Hi Clemens,

    For your information (and all others who are curious enough to take a look) here is the lume shot you requested in the post below of the 5004 next to the 5002.

    Regards
    Norbert

    Thanks very much!

    That's quite a difference. I wonder why there is so little lume on the 5004. Do you think it's enough or do you prefer to have more indexes with lume?

    Kind regards,

    Clemens

    There is less lume on the 5004 but...

    ... the quality is excellent and it continues glowing through the whole night. There is more lume on the 5002 but my first impression is that it doesn't light up as long as the lume on the 5004.

    As I stated below, the 5004 is designed with the "less is more" philosophy in mind so I guess this also goes for the lume quantity on the dial. I think it's enough and the watch is very readible in the dark.

    Regards
    Norbert

    5002 may be an earlier generation of Superluminova

    and I have read that it is being applied in a thicker coat now. There are also different colors available today which were not available in 2002.

    Good photos Norbert!
