$24 sale price in 18 hours!
The tubes alone would cost more if you tried to buy them for a project

Are we sure those are tritium tubes? It describes them as "quartz tubes". Never heard of those before.

Just a wee too much going on. LOL!
True, but there is a simpler version to choose from too. (Without the tachymeter and compass bezel)

It's just a case of bad translation.
You can check the real pictures of the verified buyers.
And there are some videos talking about these watches on YouTube too.

If they are actually tritium tubes it is worth buying these watches just to harvest the tubes for a project.
I was also intrigued as to whether quartz tubes might actually besome type of alternative to tritium. Is it possible that this is another technology that produces the same effect? If so I imagine that it could possibly be superior and not suffer the 25 year half life of tritium tubes.

Absolutely worth it for tubes alone if they are tritium

Maybe, keep in mind I don't speak knowing first hand about them

25 years? My experience is way less than 1/5. Great price though!
