To commemorate its 35th anniversary, Luminox has unveiled a special Limited Edition timepiece – the ‘Wave Crest’. This exclusive release, limited to just 135 pieces worldwide, showcases Luminox’s commitment to innovation and its deep-rooted connection to adventure and the outdoors.
The ‘Wave Crest’ Limited Edition features a striking wave-patterned dial, paying homage to Luminox’s origins near the Pacific Ocean. The name ‘Wave Crest’ not only reflects this design but also symbolizes peaks and achievements. The watch face prominently displays the brand’s powerful mantra, ‘Every Second Counts’, underscoring Luminox’s dedication to precision timekeeping in critical situations.
This mantra, adopted by Luminox in 2018, emphasizes the brand’s commitment to providing reliable timepieces for law enforcement, elite maritime units, emergency personnel, and adventurers. In these high-stakes environments, every second can indeed make the difference between success and failure, or even life and death.
In a unique partnership, Luminox has collaborated with Delugs, a Singapore-based watch strap specialist, to create a custom strap for the ‘Wave Crest’. The result is a durable rubberized leather strap that combines the sophistication of artisan leather with a rally strap design, perfectly complementing Luminox’s adventure-oriented aesthetics.
Delugs, founded in 2018, has quickly made a name for itself by disrupting the global watch strap and accessories market. Their mission to make strap changing accessible to everyone and foster a welcoming community aligns well with Luminox’s values, making this collaboration a natural fit.
The ‘Wave Crest’ is powered by the automatic Swiss movement Selita SW 220-1, ensuring accuracy and reliability. It features both day and date windows, providing essential information at a glance. The watch boasts a 45mm Carbonox+ case, known for its strength, lightweight properties, and scratch resistance. This innovative material incorporates carbon long bars, ensuring the watch can withstand even the harshest conditions while maintaining a sleek, greyish aesthetic.
The timepiece features an anti-reflective sapphire crystal for clear visibility and an open exhibition case back, allowing enthusiasts to admire its intricate mechanics. True to Luminox’s reputation, the ‘Wave Crest’ incorporates the brand’s signature Light Technology with tritium gas tubes, providing unparalleled visibility in low-light conditions for up to 25 years without requiring an external power source or light exposure.
With water resistance up to 200 meters, this timepiece is built to withstand harsh environments, making it suitable for various water activities and professional diving.
