Luminox Luxury Lights the Way
Luminox is a luxury Swiss watchmaker that's based in California. The company is known for its innovative and unique designs, as well as its use of cutting-edge materials and manufacturing techniques. Luminox watches are built to last, with many models featuring a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and water-resistant construction.
Luminox was founded in 1989 by two Swiss entrepreneurs, Henri J.B. Joost and Richard C. Adelson. The company's name is a combination of the Latin words for light (lumen) and night (nox). It's a pretty on-the-nose name, honestly, but definitely one of the cooler sounding brands in the watch world.
Probably the best thing about Luminox is how incredibly affordable they are. We're talking the highest quality Swiss craftsmanship and military-grade functionality that's, for the most part, in the 3-figure range. It's kind of unbelievable.
What might be tied for the best thing about Luminox watches are the reason they're named Luminox - Uncompromising visibility in any environment. But how do they manage that? We're glad you asked.
The Luminous Methods of Luminox
Luminox watches use a special type of gas light technology called tritium. Tritium is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen that glows brightly when exposed to oxygen in the air. This allows Luminox watches to continue glowing brightly even after being submerged in water or subjected to extreme cold or heat.
The lume on Luminox watches is also much brighter than that of other brands. This is because Luminox uses a higher concentration of tritium in their lume than most other brands. In fact, Luminox lume is so bright and long-lasting that it's actually used by the US military in some of their night vision equipment.
Luminox also uses a unique lume color on their watches. Most brands use a green lume, but Luminox uses a blue lume. This is because blue is the most visible color at night, making it easier to see the time on your Luminox watch in low-light conditions.
The bottom line is that Luminox watches offer unbeatable visibility in any environment, whether you're underwater, in the middle of a blizzard, or just trying to read your watch in a dark movie theater.
The Swiss Made Movement
All Luminox watches are Swiss made, meaning they're held to the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship. Swiss made watches are some of the most sought-after in the world, and for good reason.
Swiss made watches are subject to strict quality control standards, meaning that each and every watch that leaves the factory is guaranteed to meet a certain level of quality. Luminox takes this a step further by testing their watches in extreme conditions to make sure they can withstand anything you throw at them.
Luminox also uses high-quality materials in their watches, like sapphire crystal and stainless steel. Sapphire crystal is extremely scratch-resistant, meaning your Luminox watch will stay looking new for years to come. Stainless steel is tough and durable, making it the perfect material for a watch that's built to last.
