Lume is a short term for the luminous phosphorescent glowing solution applied on watch dials. There are some people who "relume" watches, or replace faded lume. Formerly, lume consisted mostly of radium; however, radium is radioactive and has been mostly replaced on new watches by less bright, but less toxic compounds. After radium was effectively outlawed in 1968, tritium became the luminescent material of choice, because, while still radioactive, it is much less potent than radium, tritium being about as radioactive as an x-ray, the decrease in radioactivity resulting from a diminishment of strength and quantity of the beta waves that are given off by tritium as an element.
