31 days.What distinguishes the Luminox watches against their competition? The Swiss precision, ele- gant and modern design and reliable manufactur- ing is one thing, but the most important element is Luminox. Light Technology (LLT ) which makes that indications of the Luminox watches are always visi- ble and readable – 24/7/365 and in any conditions. LLT will work for at least 25 years. Each Luminox watch has small capsules made of, breakage- and stress resistant, borosilicate glass which contain tritium inside, placed on the hands and indices. In contrast to the luminescent paints, which demand prior "charging" with an aid of the external lighting or battery illumination, in order to provide illumi- nation, here you are not required to push buttons to activate them. LLT may illuminate in different colors – point which is situated at 12 o'clock is al- ways different for readability. Dials in both watches are pretty similar and have big clear numbers from 1 to 12 (all apart the 3 where the calendar is placed) and 13 – 23 smaller (this time, there is no 24 because that is the spot for the company logo). The only dif- ference is actually the colour of the dial and digits. Movement and dials are place in a rugged carbon case with stainless steel bottom secured with four screws. Silicon-based mineral glass with a hard- ness of 550-650HV is placed in carbon bezel made. Watches are waterproof up to 20 bars (200 meters). The case and bezels slightly differ between the se- ries. The Colormarks ones are tad more aggressive, a bit more angular and have 44 millimetres diamete, are 13,8 millimetres thick and weigh 65 grams. The Black Ops are a tad more delicately shaped, with the diameter of 45 millimetres, are 13 millimetres thick and weigh 55 grams. The Colormark has SEAL logo at the bottom while in the Black Ops you can only find the company one. Both watches have rubber wrist strap – in Colormarks there are two pins, on in the Black Ops. EDC
