MILITARY GRADE

LUMINOX HAS FURTHER STRENGTHENED its association with the military elite with the new Luminox Military-Specification (Mil-Spec) 3350 series. The Mil-Spec designation is badge of pride for Luminox, for it is only given to a product that is compliant with the standards of sourcing, fabrication, material, quality and supply approved by the U.S. Department of Defense.

The watch is the very epitome of hardiness, and is rigged with nifty features – perfect for infantry on rugged terrain, or for navy divers in the inkiest depths.
