My first Ploprof 600

Knudsen1971

I have a set of new ploprof tritium hands and the second hand does not glow at all, even under UV light, so it must be non-luminous from factory.
Even the second hand that is genuine to my 1972 ploprof is non - glow one.

Great watch in really nice condition. Congrats!

Checked again, the original tritium seconds hand doesn’t have any glow left in them anymore.

Check the pictures, where I shine a UV light on the hands, barely glowing even then. The instant I turn of the UV lights they stop glowing, whilst the hour and minute hands have a slight shine for some seconds.

Maybe the lume was especially thin on the seconds hand, as there is very little space between the crystal and dial, thus Omega prioritising the minute hand thickness?

I’d like to learn about these and ask a question. What does the red button do?

That's a nice mesh bracelet - does anyone know where to source these? Mine is on a period correct bracelet, but I'd love the mesh to compliment it.
