Specialised Technology
Tritium Illumination
All Nite watches feature a rare illumination technology called GTLS (Gaseous Tritium Light Source). This highly specialised technology was, until recently only used in advanced military hardware or technically advanced safety equipment where a guaranteed light source was needed for safe operation 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 personnel.
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 is a GTLS made?
Each GTLS is made of a borosilicate (cooking glass) tube which has been super-heated, stretched and thinned to a diameter of just 0.95mm. The inside of the glass is coated with liquid adhesive and a layer of super fine phosphorous compound is then blown onto the inner surface. Each GTLS is then sealed at one end and injected with gaseous tritium. Finally the tube is then laser sealed to retain an optimum inside operating pressure.
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.
