Very even Patina, how long does it normally take to form patina, 20 years?

My Sub and Explorer too new to show any...probably when i retire at 55 only then i can see patina formed....

only models with Tritium dials will fade over time.. This watch is from 1989. If you have a new model with Luminova it won't change colour. But I am sure that others in this forum knows exactly how it works....  

I doubt it will work with a Luminova dial.

I have some which are 13 years old now, and I didn't even the slightest sign a a starting patina. Best, Nicolas.

look at the positive side, when my daughter inherits..

...my watches, they will still appear whitey white and no patina...good and bad. But its ok.. My T Swiss Made T Tag has patina after 13 years and hands turned dark brown, haha..
