The Luminox watches have the brightest faces of any watch I have seen. They cast a shadow. I find the watch comfortable and attractive. I wish the band were sturdier, longer and thicker since it has fallen off several times. Otherwise I am very pleased. I have yet to use it scuba diving.
I bought this watch a few years ago. I like the luminous dial, and it has proven to be an accurate and rugged watch. I am disappointed that after a few years the plastic watch band cracked and was no longer usable. Given the price of this watch, and all the military specifications Luminox claims to meet, I did not expect this to happen. I assumed this must have been a defective watch band. When I contacted Luminox to point this out, and asked if they would replace it, they sent me a very curt and direct message in which they stated:
"The warranty does not apply to the band, crystal, crown, bezel or battery."
In looking for a replacement band, I discovered that authorized Luminox distributors sell them for $39.00. I think this is bit ridiculous for a watch band that only lasted a few years. I've bought complete Timex digital watches for less than the price of this band, and never had the watch band break. In shopping around, I found a Timex watch band made for Casio watches that looked like the original Luminox watch band. I bought it for $8.87 at Wal-Mart.
While I still like the Luminox watch itself, I'm very unhappy with it coming with either a defective or very cheap watch band. I'm also very unimpressed with Luminox's customer service. Given my experience, I've come to the conclusion that Luminox watches are overpriced, and their service is poor. If I could do it all over, I wouldn't buy this watch again.
I don't actually dive, but I still find this to be a quality watch.
It's a precise time keeper. The thing I like best is that the hour,
minute, and second hands, along with the hour markers are illuminated
in the dark without the need to push any buttons.
I have a small watch collection and this Luminox 3015 is one of my favorites.
It's light weight and doesn't seem obtrusive like some
of my bigger, more expensive watches. Yet, it still has a feel of quality to it.
I'd recommend this watch to anyone who, like me, checks the time frequently, even after it gets dark.
Not having to push a light button is something I've gotten
used to rather quickly.
I will never buy another Luminox watch! I have this watch, the black one with the rubber strap, in the women's size with a yellow dial. I have had it for almost 3 years. I do not dive any more since we have had children, but I wear this watch to do chores, sports, quotidian (daily) boring stuff. The numbers around the dive time ring have all worn off so you can hardly read them. The watch keeps popping off the band because the hole where the pin fits in on one side has been scuffed and so now it won't hold. I sent it back to Luminox and they said it would cost $136 to repair. I said, "Send it back and I'll use it as a pocket watch." I am certainly disappointed with the brand; I had long held Luminox in high regard because of their "Navy SEAL" stamp of approval, but I guess we civilians get an inferior model, or else the SEAL divers only wear them when they are actually under water, and not in combat or training or anything like that. Likely I will buy the National Geographic dive watch next, which also has a cheerful yellow dial, but I am not sure yet.
I was looking for a basic easy to read diver's watch. I chose the Luminox based on its swiss based parts and its reputation for night time watch. Obviously at this price - you have to expect some compromises. The case front is a high impact polymer very light but not stainless steel like its caseback. The watch face was not as big as I thought it was going to be. The strap is a comfortable basic black vinyl strap. The watch is light and keeps great time. The watch has excellent night time visiblability - easy to read in total darkness. Overall I am happy with the watch. PS - The Luminox case the watch comes in is HUGE.
