Can anybody confirm which Planet Ocean models have the stellar looking lume on the bezel... is this just on Orange Bezel models from 2019?

I think its usually just the orange bezels that have the lume.
Same goes for the new Ultra Deep, only the version with orange bezel has lume. They could have done the same lume treatment on the Blue UD but apparently chose not to.

What all the PO models with lumed bezel have in common is that they don't have a liquid metal bezel. So it's either lume OR liquid metal.

This does seem to apply to the majority of POs but there are a few exceptions from what I noticed. America's cup, Oreo/Orca GMT, blue ultra deep, etc. Those have white markings on the bezel that are not Liquidmetal but also not lume.

Seems like orange bezel + not liquid metal = lume.

I've had my orange bezel for over a year and still find myself a bit giddy when I look down and see the lume glowing.

Same here after 14 months. It is so mesmerizing to glance at the white dial and orange bezel.
It is my number one watch but rotates with the Sea Dweller and SMPc.
