The Extreme Sports Luminox Watch
When you depend on a watch for more than good looks, you need a Luminox watch. Many Luminox owners enjoy extreme sports and often place their lives in the hands of their timepiece. Divers, for example, rely on their watch in order to know the exact time they have left before running out of oxygen. When your 200 feet down, you want a watch you can depend on.
What Makes Luminox Watches Famous?
Richard and Berry, two friends who were in the same profession as sales representatives got together to form The Richard Barry Marketing Group. They contacted a Swiss watch company named RBMG who developed a never seen before illumination technology and decided to market the same under an exclusive partnership with the same.
They changed the brand name of the watches to Luminox, which literarily means 'light night' in Greek and created their own logo of the same. They struck oil when a US Navy Seal officer approached them in order to develop a watch for the US Navy Seals to use for diving purposes on night missions. As soon as the Navy Seal dive watch launched in 1994, Luminox was an instant success. In 1999 another version of the Navy Seal dive watch was launched but this time in stainless steel.
That same year The Richard Barry Marketing Group got yet another request, this time from the Edwards Air Force base to create a watch they could wear on their bombing mission. Luminox started a partnership with Lockheed Martin Corporation in order to create a new specific to their requirements Navy watch to be worn by the F-117 Nighthawk Stealth pilots.
