Default Luminox Watches?

Do any of you have experience with Luminox watches? I'm considering getting a new watch, and want to keep it in the $250 range. I like the Luminox Field watches. I currently have a Seiko dive watch with the 7S26 automatic movement, but the bracelet need to be repaired, so I thought I may spring for a new watch. Or, is there anything else in the $250 range you suggest I look at?

I have a Luminox. One of the few quartz watches I own. I really like it. I think it is a 3950 series. Orange on black.

I love my Luminox watches. Currently wearing the 824 right now - my daily wear and least expensive. It's taken a really good beating with no problems. I have two more on my dresser but don't remember the numbers right now. They cost more than this one and I use them when ever I'm not working.

The Model 824:

Warren, you might also like to look at this guy's bracelets for your Seiko... http://shop.ebay.com/wjean28/m.html?...&_trksid=p4340. From what I have read, they are very well regarded on a couple of watch forums.

I've got a 3105 that I've been beating on for about 5 years or so now. No complaints.

I am here looking for a review of the Luminox watch, as well. Does anyone know what the average price of this brand can run? Also, what is the typical size of the face and band? The plan is to find one for my husband for his anniversary gift but he is very particular about what he wears on his wrist. Has anyone purchased luminox watches watches from this Watchco website? I just don't want to buy online unless I have a review of the website.

Was doing some advanced training in Georgia for the last three weeks and a bunch of guys I was there with had luminox watches. They all really liked them. I think I'm going to pick myself up this one:

Invicta is hard to beat for the money.

For a little more, Certina is a Swiss brand of excellent QPR affordable watches that are in classic style.
