Great military watch
I usually don't review products but I'm compelled to write one about this watch. As a watch collector and a Soldier with two combat tours in Iraq I know what a good military watch looks like. This watch is an excellent companion to wear in combat and it looks good enough for casual wear. I wore the Traser version on my last tour as well as a Marathon GSAR. Those watches are now confined to my safe as I wear this watch more often than I do my other watches. It is light weight rugged and macho looking easy to read at all times and of course it lights up like a torch a night.
What's to like about this watch? First it is 200 water resistant. That's more than enough WR to withstand any water usage. Second the case construction (PC/Carbon) is the best making this piece very lightweight. Third you have to love the color combination. Orange is the international color for emergency/distress and it is very well executed in this piece without overwhelming the watch or making it look like a "fashion watch."
I like this watch so much that I ended up buying the white version (3051). At first when I read Luminox's claim that their watches are used by SF guys Navy Seals and law enforcement officers I thought to myself what a gimmick. But now that I own two I can tell you that it is indeed a very practical and though watch that will serve you well either you serve in the Armed Forces are a law enforcement officer or are a spirited and adventurous civilian.
To close I have another Army buddy that have one of the original navy Seals watches. He has wore his on two tours in Iraq and has beaten the heck out of it and the watch looks good and has withstood the harsh environment of the desert. Don't hesitate to buy this watch. You will only regret it if you don't get it...More detail ...
