Let's see your Trasers

I've had this watch for about 20 years now. I can't remember the model number and there is nothing on the back saying what it is. I think it may be a P6500. Had it serviced at Traser about 10 years ago. It runs beautifuly still. Unfortunately the tritium tubes are not nearly as bright as they were. I believe the half life of tritium is 10 years so that would make the output around 25% now? I'm guessing and not sure if I got that right. You can still see the lume once your eyes are adjusted to the dark. Despite this I think it's still a lovely watch. It has a Citizen Ecodrive strap fitted which I think goes rather well. I'm thinking about getting another so I thought I would post this in the hope that others may care to show pictures of the models they have.

An ultra violet torch shows the lume in it's former glory but unfortunately it doesn't actualy charge the tubes.

I've got one of these, needs a service that I'm not really sure I want to fork out for, but it did good service for several years. It's a great watch, I was very impressed with it.

Wearing an Officer Pro as we speak. My go-to nighttime watch.
Bought it from SC a few years ago, still good in the bedroom, which is more than I can say about myself.
I would take a picture, but I have been on the Gwatkins Yarlington Mill all night. Maybe tomorrow.

Sounds painful. Good luck!
