Thought I would share my views on the LUM-TEC 300M-3 XL:
LUM-TEC 300M-3 XL (45mm Black PVD)
Specs:
45mm width excluding crown.
24mm lug width.
54.5mm Lug tip to Lug tip length.
14.75mm thickness.
Weight on rubber strap: 4.8oz / 135g.
Weight on steel bracelet: 8.5oz / 241g.
316L stainless steel.
Titanium carbide PVD hard coating (black)
Uni-directional 60-click rotating luminous bezel with sapphire insert.
Alternating brushed and high polished finish.
Ultra precise Miyota 9015 Japan automatic movement with hacking and handwinding features.
Sapphire crystal with clear double side anti-reflective coating.
Threaded solid stainless steel caseback.
LUM-TEC MDV Technology®. (2-tone)
Screw lock crown with double diamond sealing system.
300 Meters / 990 ft. water resistance.
2 straps included: Stainless steel bracelet with special ratcheting diver's extension and molded rubber.
Limited and numbered series of 150.
One year limited warranty.
Free lifetime timing adjustments.
When you first open and unpack your carefully packaged watch you will remove a similar LUM-TEC box.
Inside that white box you will find a beautiful wooden box complete with the LUM-TEC plate affixed on the top.
Open the box to find your LUM-TEC eagerly waiting to adorn your wrist. Careful wrapping will be protecting yours, but I couldn’t wait to get mine out and on the wrist before writing this.
Also inside the box you will find your warranty card and owners manual for your model.
Now, if your watch comes with accessories like an extra strap or band, be sure to look in the side compartments of the box to locate your extras.
I find the 300M-3 XL stunning! The combination of orange and white markers against the black dial jumps right out at you and makes this an easy read. The 60-click uni-directional rotating bezel is smooth and distinct through all clicks. Plus the sapphire crystal bezel insert adds a nice gloss to the bezel that looks incredible.
The Miyota 9015 engine has been keeping spot on time and provides a smooth sweeping second hand at 28,800 VPH.
And with LUM in their name you can imagine the lume is off the chart! I charged it and turned the lights out for my son to see and it was like a light. It was actually reflecting off his face! I’ve never seen lume like this before.
The black PVD case and band have almost a brushed appearance against the sapphire bezel, which I think contrast very well and ads to the already great look.
The band is held together with friction pins, which made the band very easy to size, for those that do our own. The clasp is a scissor style, push button deployant complete with a ratcheting clasp to get the perfect fit.
The case back has the LT logo and model information along with your number out of 150 of the Limited Edition.
I could not be more pleased with the LUM-TEC 300M-3 XL. If you have not experienced LUM-TEC you should! LUM-TEC is a company that is serious about the quality of their watches and taking care of their customers. If you call the main line chances are Bes will answer the phone and he does whatever he can to assist. This is a great company and you can feel confident doing business with them.
A couple wrist shot.
Thanks for looking!!
