Wanted to start a new thread on this. I am on my third Luminox, and yet again I am having problems. My first two were the Navy Seal plastic model. Crystal scratched severely, traded it off. The hands fell of the second one after a medium hard impact. Gave it away. Now I have an all steel Captain's with a steel band. Pins went. Replaced them and now they are obviously bent again. The big thing is, having not worn the watch in almost two months, I picked it up this morning and there is a scratch on the crystal. It wasn't there when I put it down and it has been setting on my nightstand the whole time. I know that anything can happen to a watch, but my other watches have endured much more abuse and I haven't had the problems with them. I think they don't have properly tempered crystals.
After a little research, I discovered that Microtec makes the watches for Luminox and that repairs are handled by a subcontractor. Luminox, apparently, is little more than a marketer and distributor. If anybody knows any more about them, please let me know.
