As it probably be obvious from the pics, this watch has an affinity to water....:)

Enjoy!

and the obligatory lume shot:

All should be right on schedule. This one pictured is our prototype.

Sweet!! Can't wait for my 500m-3!!

Hey, try this shot...put the camera on a tripod, set the shutter release for 1sec or a half sec, and pour water on the watch while snapping the photo.

Can we get some shots without all the water? I'd love to get a better look at the watch.

Also have gotten requests for shots without water and in the day light from WUS. They seem to think the numbers will not be readable in day light without black around them. I think they are wrong.

Just got a hold of a photo from LT sans water. Seeing the numbers on the bezel seems to be no issue to me. Which some seem to have an issue with else where. I mean why have another me to bezel with black, blue, Pepsi etc. In my view that look gets real old after you seen it on a several different watches.

The night shot is great. Most of the other pictures are terrible though as far as getting a good look at it.

Are there any LumTecs that have a higher surface area of Lume than this one? It looks like it's going to be throwing off some major light!

Chris guarantees that wearing this watch will get you lots of six, so he didn't need to include one.

Er...I mean...the 6 isn't missing, it's just that the thick, curved crystal bends the light so you can't see it at that angle in that photo.

Going to see if I can get that 6 guarantee in writing. =)

It's looking good. I would love to see a guy with a smallish wrist put on a few of the more familiar models and then this one so I could get a gauge of what I'm dealing with in relation to the rest of my collection as far as size goes.

Oversized as it is I'm thinking of using it as a little bedstand travel clock, Maybe make a little jig with a a magnify8ng glass in front of it. (done this before and it works with powerful glowers.)

Bes has a wrist under 7" from what Chris tells me. So maybe at some point when he has some time. He can model some of the watches and post the photo's.
