I don’t wear watches but I love the F-117 Nighthawk and all the history that goes along with it. So much so that I saw Luminox produces watches to honour that beautiful aircraft and I’m considering investing in it. Thanks for uploading this very informative video. You answered all the questions I had with it. Also mentioning the specs in metric measurements was super helpful. Cheers!
Fantastic review of this watch. Not only the best Luminox F-117 Nighthawk 4144 review I've seen, this is the best Luminox watch review I've ever seen. And I've seen a lot of them ✊🤌
Wow that thing is badass! I love the double-lume knockout punch of the BGW9 and tritium tubes. Don't think I've ever seen that before. I can't help but think back to when I discovered your channel, and your review of the Luminox P-38 Lightning got me so amped that I bought one for myself immediately after watching. That watch remains one of my favorite quartz watches in my collection. Do you still have yours? Great review!
At 9.40 he demo's the lume and then says... When the BGW9 fades the Trtium will take over... but in the shot the Trtium is not visible (the yellow highlights and the blue dot above 12) and you can see the difference between his watch and the pic he places on screen. Why is his different and we are not seeing Tritium...? Compare shots, view from 10.05 for 30 secs
@@EricSloferwatchreviews thanks for the reply, but I just bought the watch yesterday and the yellow hands and dots and blue 12 dot does not show up, even to my eyes, I see it exactly as your video
I sent mine back. Nothing at all like the shot shown at 10.27. This is a shot from Luminox website and not even close to the actual brightness of the Tritium, which is barely visible. Tritium is 'lit' all the time, so judge for yourself from the video whether it can be seen, even in the darker shots
Yess it doesnt luminate.. which seems dissappinted. They present that “yellow” luminated. I want to buy this but reconsider immediately after know this happen
If only this watch was not 1300 dollars. It is fantastic but you can get a solar /atomic high end g-shock with 3 dual speed motors and blue tooth and tons of other features while this watch is literally a one trick pony. The one thing that really gets me about these watches is the lack of solar power. For this amount of money you could get a GPS watch too.
I have an automatic prospex and i really dont understand the facination with automatic watches. They are unprecise, require maitenance and are fragile.
U are the only person who do an excellent review of the watch 👏✌️
Thank you for watching!
So far, he’s about the only dude reviewing this watch at all. It’s not a cheap watch. Not sure why other channels aren’t talking about it.
@@totallyfrozen you right brother I'm about to buy it next week 😅
Like the fine details and sick lume and tritium.
love the lume on this piece
That’s a really cool looking watch, excellent/ easy to read & materials
That's a tough watch, congratulations on another cool find !❤
My new Beater for lack of a Better description 👍
Very nice watch ❤

Not really an investment. Really just a purchase. Most watches do not increase in value over time, they depreciate like cars.
An investment in regards to emotion and value, that’s a roe I always weigh heavily

Fantastic review, luminox brother 🍺
Thank You so much 👍
Cool Watch. 😎.

Nice video. I have read a few reviews buyers complaining about the bezel is loose and rattles. Have you noticed this?
No I haven't as a matter of fact luminox has some of the best feeling Bezels
Great review. What's the red hand in the watch used for.

All dark that nice oh so it’s like me “ Indestructible “ lol 😂😂 so that spy or ninja watch that’s some 007 stuff

My camera doesn't pick up the tritium like the human eye will. You're eyes are much better at night vision than a cellphone camera.

Nice video. How long does the Lume last on a watch like this.
The tritium will last 25 year's

The metal one was $1,300 this one is carbon and it's about 500 dollars
@@EricSloferwatchreviews FJB inflation? Try just about double that now.
Is the case back carbonox as well or ss? Thanks for the video 😊
It’s corbonox all the way
@@enzos1770 you sure, I contacted Luminox and they said it has a coated stainless steel case back?
I would prefer if it was an automatic watch, i don't like quartz watches,
Yeah my only Quartz right now in my collection. Took the place of my G-Shocks

What's the redhand for???
