Interesting thing I noticed last night drunk!

Hi guys,
Last week I turned 21 and went 50/50 with my folks on a Seamaster Pro ( fullsize auto black/black speedy bracelet). It was really cool as I've been wanting a swiss made divers watch since I was ten. To make it more special my mum ordered it through the oldest and most prestigious jewellers in Cheltenham were I live. They had to get it specially just for me!! I checked the accuracy (even though I swore I wouldn't) over a period of a week and it came in at 5 seconds fast which I reckon is really good. I wear it at all times except showering and at the gym (I find my wrist feels too light without it!)
Anyway, on to my point. Last night I was in a nightclub with all my student buddies. One of them pointed to my watch as he had noticed that it was glowing really bright. However, the cool thing is that we were under a uv light which makes the markers glow bright green, but the hands contrast by glowing bright blue. I don't know if anyone has noticed this and I wondered if it was intentional.
