Between superlume and tritium gas, is there a big diff in terms of the lume?

Nice... But is it worth the 100USD +/-?

yeap. well worth the price..
a short review

pros > very well built + good quality leather straps + nice dial finish + wondeful service + nice finish on the casing

cons > the rotating pendulum inside quite loud + the lock on the bezel too loose for my liking + poor strap locking system (acceptable)

conclusion > definitely worth the price.

Panerai homage made by independent watchmaker.

Romeo, how big is your wrist? The 44mm case looks big. Might order one just to see whether the PAM design appeals.

the difference here is
superlume grow very bright and it slowly fade away with time.
tritium gas glows all the time! U cannot see it during the day, the glow is constant and will not fade with time.

Sorry bro, I am not in MY. You can check out the Monster in flesh at any reputable Seiko dealer. I posted some pics of my Laco in the v2 forum.
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1415052/+1360

Although both are 42mm cases, IMO the Laco wears larger than the Monster as it is all dial, no bezel.
