Luminox first came into existence with its special Swiss made creations for the US Navy officers during the early 90s. Nick North and Luminox were the master brains behind the master creation. It has since then never wandered off its way and successfully continued to serve the specific military needs for their time pieces.
The brand had been named after its one of the creators - Luminox. But some market practitioners also argue that it was named only after 'Luminox' and not North because the very idea of him was to produce such watches which will glow in absence of light and hence help the militaries and navies at nights.
Right now, the brand has launched four elite watch bands in the global market, of which most of the 2009 market share had been taken up by the 8000 black steel bands. Here is the list of the available products from Luminox marketed globally -
1. Exotic leather bands: The brand provides a wide variety of genuine leather products to all its time-pieces. Ultimate comfort and durability - that's what properly defines the leather watch bands, both in terms of quality and style.
2. Glossy nylon bands: 'Nato Style Straps' were the best choice of the US models in 2009. In fact the wide range of these products of this brand brings to its customers forms the ultimate fashion statement for all adorable citizens. Another upcoming model would be the nylon Velcro Military Band.
3. Rubber bands: Navy Seal Colourmark watch bands were the most popular straps among the ones looking for hard durability rather than fashion. Its ley features include - a stainless steel, double ring, stylish buckle with a tang strap.
