Copyright 2006 Trevor Rowell
Tritium paint has been used on the hands and numerals of watches since the 1930's. At first this technology was Top Secret and restricted to use on military watches.
Tritium paint on watches is a mixture of tritium and phospor. Tritium is naturally radio-active and needs no external source of light or charge to work. Tritium does not glow. As it decays, tritium emits beta radiation, which are a group of excited electrons that in turn excite the electron in the phosphor atoms making them emit photons, or light.
As they return to their ground (non-excited) state, the phosphor glows. Phosphor can also be excited by UV light from the sun or other light sources. Thus, the tritium paint relies on tritium radioactivity to make the phosphor glow in the dark, not any charge from external light source.
Tritium, has a half life of 12.3 years, a half-life is simply the time it takes HALF of the tritium to decay. So as long...

Watches although functional have changed with seasons, needs, and fashions. And the wristwatches that are integral to our lives today was popularized by Cartier in the 19th century.
