Luminox Master Carbon Seal 46mm 3800 Series Limited Edition Review

Taking rugged to a whole-new level, the Luminox Master Carbon Seal 46mm 3800 Series remains one of the brand’s most advanced and lightweight outdoors watches. Engineered from their innovative CARBONOX+ material, it’s lightweight yet durable aesthetic is beaten only by its striking grey-on-grey aesthetic detailed by red markings and the unofficial Navy SEAL motto, commemorating the elite force’s exclusive trust in only Luminox watches.

Luminox may not be one of the biggest watch manufacturers in the world, but they are certainly the most renowned for their associations with so many elite forces. Never a mere accessory but always a tough, precision piece of equipment designed to instil belief, drive and a daily dose of heroism into its wearer, Luminox watches are relied on by the likes of the Navy Seals, the U.S Air Force, Icelandic Association for Search and Rescue, Austrian Military Police and even extreme adventurer Bear Grylls. This Luminox Master Carbon Seal 46mm 3800 Series Limited Edition is no exception, becoming an essential piece of outdoors equipment for extreme adventurers and everyday explorers alike.

Limited to only 827 pieces, the all-new Luminox Master Carbon Seal 3800 Series watch is engineered from the brand’s incredible CARBONOX+ material. It is uniquely constructed from an innovative carbon compound material for an ultra-light weight finish that weighs less than 90g on the wrist. The material is also used on the 46mm unidirectional rotating bezel decorated with a 60 minute scale, and when paired with its 300 metre water resistant rating, the timepiece becomes a reliable diving tool.

Housed within the case and behind the 316L stainless steel screw down case back is a Swiss quartz movement. The quartz calibre provides classic central hands for hours, minutes and seconds, a date window at 3 o’clock and an End of Life indicator. Displayed on the textured grey dial, each function is highlight by the brand’s unique Luminox Light Technology. This ensures the Luminox Master Carbon Seal 46mm 3800 Series Limited Edition provides a constant glow for effortless legibility no matter the time of day or environment you are exploring in.  The luminosity is also renowned for lasting up to 25 years, unlike most watches which use a luminescent paint that must be charged by a light source.

Commemorating the Navy Seal elite forces, the dial of the Luminox Master Carbon Seal 3800 Series watch features bright red markings and their unofficial moto “The Only Easy Day Was Yesterday,” in matching red across the bottom of the dial. For additional legibility and further protection, the dial is housed beneath scratch resistant sapphire crystal glass treated with an anti-reflective coating. The limited edition also features a screw in double gasket security crown and a genuine rubber strap in a textured grey finish to complement the rest of the design.
