And it feels very nice on your wrist... not that I tried one on prior to shipping it off.

I really like the blue tritium. Makes a change to the standard green. I have a Traser 6502 and it is one of the better watches I have had.

No, I got a 3000-series Navy Seal diver with a yellow face.

eBay. It's one of the Mercedes-Benz branded ones. The seller had no idea what they had and so I got an absolutely killer deal on it. I'm sure I've posted a picture before.

Very

NaturalMystic · **Reply #16 on:** April 09, 2011, 12:28:49 AM

Congrats man! That's the Nighthawk Series Blackout watch right? I really like those but wish they came with a metal band. I have smaller wrists and hate the way rubber straps fit me.

Sorry, that's what I was supposed to say but copied the wrong image file name and pasted here. I have pics of that watch and a few other Luminox watches saved on my hard drive. The one I referenced and I like especially because it has the steel band, is the Luminox 6402 EVO F-117 Nighthawk Series Blackout but it's about $670US and a bit above my budget right now.

Medic82 · **Reply #20 on:** April 10, 2011, 12:25:32 AM

Can't you just replace the rubber straps with a metal band? It looks pretty straight forward when coming to replacing the straps. And that F-117 Nighthawk would cost you twice that if you ever where to find a Luminox dealer in Norway.

very nice watch

I love these "stealth watches", or "phantom watches" as they call them. Black on black...

I... gonna get a look at this brand again.

But... isn't that rubber strap too hot ?

Swiss Man · **Reply #22 on:** April 10, 2011, 01:38:15 AM

This is my one and only Luminox that I own.

Found it in a flea market for $8.00 all I had to do was put another strap on it.

Replacing it shouldn't be a problem. I'm just not sure if they make a matching bracelet specifically for it, or if not, how hard it'd be to find a nice aftermarket one that matches it.

I'll give ya $10 for it straight up!

As for bands, I replaced the stock strap on mine with a silicone rubber strap - much more comfortable for those with smaller wrists.
