Ok guys, I know the famous brands of these types of watches such as Traser, Luminox, Ball, and Marathon. I am not paying 1000's so the last 2 are out and I am not a huge fan of Traser. Luminox watches are nice but not as bright as I want. Any suggestions? Thank you.
best tritium(reasonable price and very bright) watch on the market

Uzi?
Traser is better than Luminox.
Android makes one with t-100 tubes, and deep blue makes a number of them......one other that jumps to mind is armourlite. I'd go with deep blue personally.
Not sure this falls in the reasonable price range, but i've been oogling a Ball Fireman Storm Chaser DLC Glow for awhile.
How about a one of the Deep Blue watches?

I don't know if BEST is the right word for it, and without more specifics I do not know what a reasonable price range is for you.
Maybe try Smith and Wesson?

Best value by far are Bertucci Watches...not sure if Smith's uses tritium or not?

Deep Blue are pretty nice...my favorite coloring out of all the tritiums is the deep blue or this one...but not sure if it is worth the price or will last (gathered from reading the reviews)....

I have 4 Luminox, so I'm biased.
It seems fashonable to sniff at Luminox and prefer, say, Traser, but in fact most of the reviews of Luminox are favorable. Proportionately, Traser seems to get more negative reviews--and it's a bit more expensive than Luminox.
I've had a Luminox for a few months now, and I really like it, have had no issues at all. Love the tritium glow in the dark. It's a bit overpriced, perhaps, but not outrageously so; I feel I got pretty much what I paid for.

Luminox has really picked up their prices in the last 10 years.
I bought one of the basic black "Navy Seal" watches back in 2000 and I think it was around $160 from Sport Chalet (meaning it would have been cheaper online).
Today's online prices for the same model are $200 online and I've seen them as high as $280.
Great watch though. Kept time wonderfully, and the tritium glow lasted well. Now, after 13 years, the tritium is pretty much exhausted, but I've moved on to other watches long ago.

You missed out on the sottomarino tritium watches that we're on sale a few months ago , they were a great deal for $69.
I like the trasers. The ball is my favorite by a mile, but ... I have enough automatics (TAG) to know that if you absolutely need accuracy it probably won't provide it.
Ball first. Traser second. Cool stuff indeed.
