Amethyst dial in the limited edition Venezianico Nereide Ametista watch
15 Apr 2024
One of the most obvious and expected functions of watches is the ability to display the time at any time - not only through a clear dial, bold, contrasting hands and indexes or clear glass - sometimes even with anti-reflective coating. The most obvious is the backlighting function, allowing the time to be read even in the deepest darkness.

What kind of backlight in a watch to choose?
Watches with backlighting are a segment on the watch market that includes up to 90% of models - especially electronic ones, and analog watches, equipped with backlighting, usually have a sporty design. However, the possibilities offered by reading the time in the dark have not escaped elegant models, either - they use narrow illumination of lines on the hands and small dots or dashes on the indexes.
What are the types of backlighting of watches?
Depending on the brand, type and model of the watch, there are several basic types of backlighting. The most common and least complicated is luminescent coating - incident light stimulates it to glow and allows it to emit light for a longer period of time. Its types include Lumibrite and Superluminova layers, which are distinguished by their zero toxicity and radiation, thanks to thorough testing and a special selection of elements. The former can be found in Seiko and Citizen watches, the latter - in brands such as Glycine and Doxa.Certainly an interesting way is the Indiglo system, designed by Timex. Unlike the layers placed in certain places that emit light energy previously collected, Indiglo is already a backlighting of the entire watch face, and the energy is drawn directly from the battery. This was a revolution in the field of watch backlighting, as the invention allowed for an increase in the duration of illumination - the watch remained illuminated only at times selected by the user.
Popular types of backlighting
An awesome technology is undeniably the use of tritium tubes in tritium backlit watches. It is based on the encapsulation of an isotope of hydrogen - tritium - in extremely small tubes, while the tubes themselves are covered with a light-sensitive layer. Tritium stimulates the layer to glow - this method is one of the most economical, as tritium tubes not only glow much more intensely than other types of backlighting, but also last many times longer. Watches with tritium backlighting are the domain of brands such as Traser and Vostok Europe.
