LUMINOX LIGHT TECHNOLOGY (LLT)
The Unique Luminox Light Technology ensures visibility at a glance. Luminox watch technology provides a constant glow 24/7, no matter what the conditions are, for up to 25 years. Unlike most watches that use luminescent paint, which requires exposure to a light source to charge and fades quickly, or “push-to-light” systems that require the press of a button to activate battery-powered lights, Luminox watches are always visible without the need for charging or activation.*
Always Visible means that the Luminox Light Technology (LLT) illumination system, which uses tiny micro gas light tubes to illuminate the watch, is guaranteed to remain illuminated for a period of 10 years. The tubes can provide a constant glow for up to 25 years, with visibility depending on individual eyesight, the color of the tubes, and the condition of the watch crystal.

- 6 times lighter than steel, 3 times lighter than titanium
- Rigid and durable
- Non-metallic, anti-allergenic, anti-magnetic
- Strong chemical resistance
- Very low thermal extension and low heat expansion, weatherproof
CONSUMER BENEFITS
