Battery doesn’t last.
Only problem with this watch is the battery only lasted 14 months as opposed to the manufacturer says 18-36 months. And it’s not easy to take out. Oring has to be replaced too.

Worth every penny and then some
I had a great solar-powered Seiko which lasted for 12 years before needing a new battery, but the cost of battery replacement was $185 when including shipping, so I started shopping around. I actually bought one Casio but returned it because it was just too small and hard for me to read (my bad.) I bought another, larger one, but it did not stay illuminated at night for more than a couple of hours at best. I need my watch to be visible at night. Now, both of those choices were cheap, under $45 or so. I finally rediscovered the LumiNox, and I have had it for about a week. I was nervous about spending so much, but I am so happy I took the leap. This is a fantastic product. I love the light weight. I love that it is visible all night long. My near vision without glasses is about 20/30, and I can read it easily without glasses. Since I only use glasses for reading, this is a huge plus for me. I love the rotating bezel, which is really easy to turn, clicks on each minute and makes precise timing with the bezel easy, practical and quick. The dual wrist strap retainer is great. The hidden protrusions keep the strap in place with no shifting at all. Regarding accuracy, I have only had it for about 10 days but over that time it has not lost or gained a second. I was a bit concerned about the height, about 3mm thicker than the Casio, but It is so light that is not an issue. I'd buy this again in a heartbeat.

Inconsistent with marketing specifications
I have owned this watch for a little over 2 years. I wanted a watch that I could wear on a daily basis, i.e., waterproof, designed to withstand my active lifestyle, made of high quality materials, lightweight and aesthetically appealing. For me, this watch, the Luminox 3051 EVO seemed to check all of those boxes. In addition, I was familiar with the Luminox brand and was impressed by their excellent reputation as a tool utilized by some members of the U.S. Military, specifically the Navy SEALs, which Luminox touted as a main marketing point, going so far as to engrave the Trident insignia on the back of the casing of some models, including the 3051 EVO. At nearly $250, this was a significant investment for me, a young college student, but an investment I felt comfortable with given all of the aforementioned information, but most importantly because I knew Luminox offered a 2 year warranty on their products. I made the purchase and it arrived in what seemed to be all of the original Luminox packaging with the associated documentation and protective pill shaped case. however, upon closer inspection the very first thing that I noticed was that the markings on the rotating bezel were not in perfect alignment with the numerical markings on the watch face. I was further disappointed when I observed the illuminating markings on the rotating bezel. The linear marking at the 12 o'clock position was not in perfect alignment, nor was it straight vertical line as was intended. This was immediately noticeable as this specific markingwas distinguished from the other illuminated reference points by not only glowing in a different color, but also buy its linear, 6-to-12 o'clock orientation and a small circular piece of plastic that rose of out of the bezel and surrounded the marker. Within 90 days via 4 mentioned circular boundary begin to show signs of extreme wear, appearing bent inwards which further contributed to the slanted disorientation of the associated illuminating marker. Within a year, the original rubber band that the watch shipped with broke, ripping at the attachment point to the case. I wore this watch to class, to the gym, and while working in the operating room of the local hospital. There is no significant where or abuse that could be cited as the reason for the failure of the watch band. I replace the band and put off contacting luminox about replacing the original band as I was busy with my studies and work. Then, about 6 months ago, after only owning the watch for roughly 19 months, I noticed that some water had gotten into the case after I had gotten out of the pool one morning. I swam while wearing this watch on a pretty regular basis as it was a part of my morning workout. It should be noted that the watch was not dropped or slammed up against anything, no extraordinary event that would have compromised the structural integrity had occurred around this time, nor any other time to my recollection. I never considered swimming with the watch to be an issue as the watch was marketed to be water-resistant up to 200 m; approximately two orders of magnitude greater than the maximum depth I observed while swimming in the morning. Within 6 hours, the characteristic white markings on the face turned to a yellowish color and further discoloration and deformity ensued over time. Attempted to contact the seller, decor plus, but never received a response. I then contacted Luminox, and at the time The watch was within 2 year warranty. However, the passed the buck as they said that they were not responsible because I did not buy the watch from them directly. Finally, I contacted Amazon I'm currently awaiting a decision by the escalations department to determine if I deserve a refund. I'm very disappointed with the product as it was a significant investment and was touted as a water resistant, warrior-approved, precise Swiss made Time piece, yet nearly none of those things were consistent with my personal experience. I cannot say for sure whether or not this was an official Luminox watch or a replica. Despite this fact, I would not recommend buying this product, at least not through a third party. It is my hope that Amazon can provide some explanation and perhaps compensation as I feel it is the only right thing to do.

Fantastic Watch!!!
Received promptly, faster than predicted actually. Well-packaged, no damage. Won’t be using it on anti-terrorist raids, diving, timing explosives, but I figured that if it’s good enough for the SEALs it’s good enough for me. At age 84 I just wanted a watch that I could see at night with a sweep second hand that I didn’t have to charge twice a day, push a button to light up, or ever change batteries. I have a great smart watch that I really like and it is useful for many reasons, but won’t be buying another one until they improve the battery life. I’ve had the Luminox for 10 days now and so far it is keeping time accurately, is the brightest, easiest watch to see at night that I’ve ever had.
