Luckily, you can tell him the exact time, as you can read the time at any time with your exclusive Luminox watch. This is due to an exclusively developed lighting technology.

History of Luminox

Like many other success stories in the watch world, the idea for Luminox watches goes back to a single inventor who thought about the shortcomings of existing military watches in order to find innovative solutions. In the case of Luminox, this was Barry Cohen, a veteran of watchmaking, who found a process in Switzerland for the production of permanently self-luminous materials that were perfect for the optimal illumination of dials, especially in the most difficult conditions. In 1989, he founded his own watch factory in San Rafael (California) under the name Luminox. Since then, functional and innovative military watches have been produced and sold under the name Luminox. Special professional groups swear by the quality and functionality of Luminox's unique watches. These include the U.S. bobsleigh team, the Coast Guard, and the U.S. Air Force. Since its foundation, the company has been able to develop steadily and has consequently been able to expand into more than 30 countries. With the acquisition of 50 percent of the company's shares from the Swiss brand Mondaine, European expansion in particular was driven forward.

The special thing about Luminox watches

The idea for the brand name is explained by the special way the watches work. Lumi is Latin and means light - Nox, on the other hand, stands for night. The goal was to develop high-quality sports wristwatches that could be read reliably and at a glance, even in the dead of night. With the unique light technology in every Luminox watch, you can easily read the time in complete darkness. This power-independent technology is remarkable and unique at the same time. No other manufacturer manages to create such conditions in this way. In addition to the resistant and robust materials, the Luminox brand stands for Swiss quality workmanship. All watches are produced in a Swiss movement and subjected to quality control.

One of the first models to be launched on the market was developed in close cooperation with the American Special Forces Navy Seals. The Luminox Navy SEAL watch is the watch that made Luminox famous in the first place. Further developments for the American armed forces soon followed. This is also the case for the pilots of the notorious F-117 Nighthawk stealth aircraft. Shortly thereafter, Luminox would also develop timepieces and wristwatches exclusively for the developer of the Nighthawk, Lockheed Martin.
