Why ChronoLume
Glow in the dark watches do not just tell time — they capture it with a glow from radium, sealed tritium tubes, or Super-LumiNova on dial, hands, and/or bezel. Browse our sections, guides, and videos to learn more before picking one you like. We also catalog Nixie tubes (gas-discharge number tubes), commercialized in the US by Burroughs in 1955 as Numeric Indicator Experimental No. 1, then made in many other countries — including Gazotron in Rivne, Ukraine, and Reflector in Saratov, Russia — with production lasting into the early 1990s: warm orange digits in glass. See Nixie clocks and kits, or read what a Nixie tube is, how they are made, and how they were invented.
