I recently acquired a VT Greyhound that has this style hands. I suggested to the OP that the hands have radium.
Whatever it is, it is not radium or any other luminescent material.

The hands definately have a channel or groove, that is all the way through the hand and material that is infilling.

All I know is based on hard work & writing by others. I can only aspire to augment this body of knowledge. If I am wrong it is because of my own failings. -me
