10th or 150th?

: bright in the dark, the dial loses its luminosity rather
: quickly. Is this as expected? Or, does the duration of
: luminosity vary with how long the dial has been exposed to
: (bright) light?

Well, I haven't measured how long mine holds, but it certainly is dependant on how much light it was exposed to. For example mine didn't shine very bright yesterday night, but when I put it under a lamp today for looking at something it was glowing like hell in a dark room.

Cheers, Andreas
