and new ones are qutie nice finish specialy when done properly (what i dont handle that well ":D" )

sadly as with all the lifetime is only around 3-10 years

i wonder when they invent permanent source of luminous paints

(well technicaly you could make some with radioactive chemicals what would outlast your lifetime by a lot but not so safe.jpg)

Tritium gas

not working that well 10 years after manufacturing depending on age

Stays better and longer but has limited lifetime

radium-phosphor is only "legit (not really)" option

what they used to use on some watch faces

Bring radium back

halftime of only 1600 years

I mean especially with modern watches it should be safe

(that is if phospor reactivenes would last that long ofc)

The thing about it being harmful back then was in workers dealing with it

Usually women would paint watch faces and they'd lick the brush to sharpen it

oh boy cancer strap watches?

Not knowing they'd inhale radium that way

I know one guy who had a grandpa with a real radioactive glow in the dark watch

grandpa (grandma)

iirc the continous usage was somewhere near 20-30 msv

around same as full-body CT-scan on medium machines

It's lead free solder recap

I like the greenish tint of uranium glass on some old watches

if you could safely wear it <:thvnk:332928260004642827>

if the watch stopped, the radium would leave a mark where the hand was for a while

like this?

now i wonder if tritium and strontium aluminacate could be mixed

That's a shadow, dumbo @AstroJannah

I wonder if chinks sell radioactive Jewelry

@Millwood I meant the watch itself nigger

@AstroJannah all their jade

Zuuchtt

zucht CIA glow in the dark rings

speak american

I prefer british english

yes sir good language yes

india superpower 2020
