Didn't take pic of that, but old tritium glows green and usually only for a few seconds.

Sounds like the 1969 tritium lume on the Geneve Dynamic I have as my avatar pic. I don't really want to send it for reluming since I have it fully original from my dad and it's in great shape, so I don't want to risk messing up the dial/hands no matter how good a job someone might do on it. But I have to say having working lume would make the watch a little more usable....

Yep, absolutely keep it fully original! Old watches have limited usability (poor water resistance & no lume) but a lot of soul 😀
