Lum-Tec Combat B4 may sound like a fictional gun from a James Cameron movie but it’s a watch. Before you’re disappointed, have a look–all their watches feature a luminescence technology that blows Indiglo out of the water. They use “superluminova photoluminescence” (yay syllables!) in their MDV Technology, which produces an intensely bright glow. The face of the Combat B4 is beautifully utilitarian, recalling a special ops military aesthetic that will make you want to perform midnight recon missions from a zodiac while saying things like “niner” and “foxtrot” and “dingo bongo”. They’re made in the USA, it’s got a lifetime battery replacement warranty too.
