Luminox Men's 3051.BO Navy Seal Colormark 3050 Series All Black With Rubber Band Watch
Positive Review:
> December 29, 2012
With the names Luminox and Navy Seals tied to this watch it has to be
nothing short of perfect and it is. I've scuffed it a few times and
thought it was scratched but it turns out it was just the material from
what I hit. If it has the Seal emblem on the back you can be assured it
is 100% water proof. In the dark you can see the night tubes perfectly
and as a peripheral it looks cool.

At least for now. I love watches, and I have a very demanding set of
criteria. A) Face doesn't scratch easily B) Band must not pull my wrist
hair out C) Watch battery must last 3-5 years minimum D) Watch has to be
45mm or less (I'm too small for a giant watch)
The Luminox
3051.BO meets all my requirements. It's durable and accurate and looks
stylish. The watch can be easily read throughout the night, which is
important to me as I am sometimes in dark places on military maneuvers.
Most of all, I love the way the watch looks and the fact that I have not
scratched or cracked the face. I've never had a watch with mineral
glass in this price point that held up this well. Usually, I've had to
go with a titanium watch and sapphire bezel. The carbon fiber and
hardened mineral glass on the 3051.BO are holding up extremely well.
Be
warned that finding a battery for this watch is nigh on impossible -
Luminox wants you to send it back to them and they don't publish the
battery information as a result. Below is the battery you need, from two
different vendors. The factory supplied brand is Renata. You'll also
need precision screwdrivers (Philips J00) and a sense of confidence.
Replacing your battery voids the warranty.

Negative Review:
> September 23, 2012
I bought this Luminox 3051 watch in March 2012. It is September 2012
now, and the watch has literally fallen apart. The first time my husband
realized the watch was running slow, he pulled the pin to reset the
time, and the pin just spun like it was stripped. It finally caught, he
set the time, but it still ran slow. About the third time he had to
reset the watch, the pin came completely out when he tried to reset it.
It is broken. The return policy from this seller says that he window for
return expired in April. I can return the watch for a "partial refund".
The money I saved buying the watch from this seller will be spent at an
authorized Luminox repair center. I should have paid full price at an
authorized dealer. Buyer Beware.
