Luminox Master Carbon seaL 3800 series L uminox Master Carbon SEAL 3800 Series watches are part of Sea Collection, and they feature the SEAL Trident engraved on the bot- tom. As all of the Sea Collection timepieces, these are uber-rugged, water resistant watches with hi-viz illumination with proprietary Luminox Light Tech- nology. But from Master Carbon SEAL 3800 you can expect even more. A Swiss Rhonda 715 HH6 multi-jewel quartz movement responsible for a precise timekeeping is a heart of latest Luminox watch. It is powered by lithium battery with eight years lifetime. The movement was placed inside the CARBONOX+ case consisting of 40% Carbon in bar form. This amount of carbon changes everything, making the case lighter (even three times lighter than titanium), more durable, exceedingly hypoal- lergenic, more scratch resistant than most other materials and more chemical and heat resistant. The watch with the rubber strap weights only 80 grams (or about 97 grams with stainless steel bracelet). Master Carbon SEAL 3800 series watches are "true man's size" - the case has 46 mm diameter (up to 51 mm in the widest place) and it is 14 mm thick. The case back is stainless steel screw-in with engraved information about the watch and huge SEAL Trident or "Budweiser". The dial or face is different in various models: l Luminox 3801 has brushed metal-like dial in black color with white numbers from 1 to 12 (calen- dar window at 3 o'clock position). lLuminox 3803 comes with carbon fiber-like dial in navy blue color with white 12, 6 and 9 o'clock num- bers. Rest of the hours are marked with white dots. l Luminox 3813 has brushed metal-like dial in ol- ive green color with black numbers from 1 to 12 (calendar window at 3 o'clock position). For limited time a 3803 version with black carbon fiber style dial and white numbers was available, but it was abandoned. On every watch face there are 24-hour style num- bers near the "main" ones. As mentioned above, in the place of 3 o'clock every watch has a calendar window with either black-white or white-black back- ground and numbers configuration. Luminox 3801 & 3801 has white hands and 3813 has black ones. The second hands in all models is bright red. All Master Carbon 3800 series watches feature the Luminox Light Technology (LLT) proprietary illumination technology which makes indications always visible and readable. 24/7/365 and in any conditions. The LLT will work for at least 25 years. Each watch has small capsules with tritium made of breakage- and stress resistant, borosilicate glass In 2017 the 3800 series watches were added to Luminox portfolio. They were designed to outperform their pre- decessors. For almost a year, the FRAG OUT! Team was using the latest Luminox timepieces almost 24/7. So now it's time to operate for write up about them!
