    Hi, can someone tell me if this Angelus 215 is radium, or not? They were made with or without radium. I'm only owner, not watch expert. Here's the old picture of them :

    Thank you

    If the hands are original, the answer is no.

    The dial has been badly degraded, and I suspect that the indexes are not original. This complicates the matter, but I would say that it is unlikely that there was ever radium on the watch.

    No luminous material present. No radium. No Tritium. Nothing.
