Don't worry, after reading this post, you will definitely understand better and make the right choice of Luminox watch to strap on your wrist!
CARBONOX™
In 2006, Luminox introduced an innovative carbon compound material, which consists of carbon long bars or carbon powder in varying percentages depending on the model. With CARBONOX™, Luminox produces timepieces that have a very rigid and hard finish, taking the watch’s overall durability to a whole new level. Besides being durable and lightweight, it is extremely comfortable to wear, shock, scratch resistant, and resistant to temperate changes. To add on, it also has a very strong chemical resistance and it ‘s non-metallic, anti-allergenic, and anti-magnetic. CARBONOX™ has been used in the making of Luminox watch cases and bracelets.
CARBONOX+™
CARBONOX+™ is first introduced in 2016, used in the production of the Luminox Master Carbon SEAL 3800 Series. It is a high performance carbon long bar compound, in which carbon fibers count for 40% of the compound. Thanks to the higher composition of carbon fibers, CARBONOX+™ has tensile strength that is twice as high as with CARBONOX™, while water absorption is three times lower. It also provide a very modern and distinctive gray color to the Luminox watches.
