Tritium Illumination
All Nite watches feature a rare illumination
technology called GTLS (Gaseous Tritium Light
Source). This highly specialised technology was,
until recently only ever used in advanced military
hardware or pioneering safety equipment where a
guaranteed light source was needed for safe
operations in all hazardous environments and
conditions.
Exactly the same technology has now been adopted by
Nite in a range of advanced sports watches that
offer the same standards of reliability and
durability to non professional personel.
Every Nite watch is fitted with a minimum of fifteen
GTLS lamps, giving you a dial that can be read
quickly and easily in all light levels. |

How does a GTLS work?
Electrons emitted from the tritium gas excite the
phosphor coating inside each GTLS lamp to produce a
continuous light that will typically last between 10
and 20 years.
How do I
switch the illumination on?
You don’t need to. The chemical reaction inside each
GTLS is permanently working. As soon as the light
levels drop the lamps become clearly visible. |
