Luminox Watch Company, renowned for having been requested to supply its Luminox Light Technology watches to the U.S. Navy SEALs since 1994, is pleased to release its newest Yachting collection of timepieces.



The Yachting Series 1400 watches are 43mm steel count-down racing timepieces with alarm. The watch is water resistant to 100 meters and is offered with three different dial colors, including black, blue and silver, all with contrasting subdials and timing hand to allow for easy viewing of the timing elements. The timepiece counts down the 10 minutes prior to any regatta race. In countdown function, it offers minute countdown with red central hand. After the start of the race, at the end of the count down, time mode is automatically activated for race timing, with a maximum duration of 96 hours. The watch is equipped with a Swiss Made ISA 8270 Yachting quartz movement with 39-month battery life. The Yachting watch retails for US$400.



As with all Luminox timepieces, the Yachting watches incorporate Luminox’s unparalleled powerful self-powered illumination system. Luminox timepieces require additional manufacturing steps that other timepieces don’t undergo, which is a costly, time-consuming endeavor.



Each watch houses tiny, self-powered micro gas lights developed by the world leader in the luminous compound industry. The micro gas lights are installed into the hands, hour markers and, in some watches, the bezels of the Luminox watches. The timepieces require no external light source to charge them, and enable time at a glance no matter what the light level—even in complete darkness. All Luminox watches glow continuously for more than 25 years and glow 100 times brighter than other luminous watches. The illumination is guaranteed for 10 years. Luminox Watches are entirely Swiss made and house a jeweled Swiss quartz movement. They are water and shock resistant.
