Was flicking though EVO at lunchtime, and spotted an advert for these, anyone got one, and what are they like? quite like them for the gadget factor of having tritium illumination

this one in particular

Looks very nice but the tritiums on my pistol sights need replacing every so often. The technology may have come on a bit but the half life tended to be 4-5 years. I got about 6 reasonable years out of the tritiums on my glock. I guess on a watch it's not quite so critical so if they start to fade after 5 years or so it's not the end of the world.

have you looked at Traser Watches? They also use Tritium tubes.
