Such a sleek looking Marathon Gary. How long have you had that one by the way?

Intimidating Luminox also Thian ! That bezel is really excellent. Is it made of steel?

Bill was wondering how you have been liking your newest Tudor. Has to be fantastic !

HI Tom, yes the bezel is all SS...here is a description of this model....


The U.S. Air Force's Military elite corps of F-117 Stealth fighter pilots recently commissioned their own Official Watch, licensed through Lockheed-Martin Corp. and made by Luminox. This sensational timepiece incorporates the exclusive self- illuminating tritium gas dial, with hands and hour markers that glow brightly for up to 25 years, even in absolute blackness with no need for any external light source or power. The entire watch - case, screw-down back, screw-in crown, bezel and bracelet is crafted of stainless steel that's been shaped and PVD (Physical Vapor Disposition) plated black to evoke the exotic look and feel of a Stealth aircraft. Features a multi-jewel Swiss quartz movement, highly scratch-resistant sapphire glass crystal with double anti- reflective coating and dual time zone bezel.

Hi Thian, thanks so much for the info about this one. Seems like this is a very special Luminox. Not only is
it evidently the official watch of a very cool fighter, but the whole made of stainless steel theme is excellent too.
..Especially when it seems like so many of the recent Luminox models seem to be made of resins instead.

What an impressive watch Thian ! Thanks again for this information about it.
