    Rolling eyes LUMINOX POINT MAN or KHS TACTICAL SHADOW X-TAC NATO ?

    I 've to make a decision....


    WatchesLuminox Recon Point Man

    Luminox is less in price ( 100 € ) but has a good name and is well described on various treads..
    interesting model for me and my role ,


    KHS | Tactical Shadow X|TAC | KHS.TSDXT.N
    KHS has an intersting construction ( steel instead of polymer ) and design, all blacks finished ...


    I think they're a same manufacter watch, same movement....

    I really like the KHS but for the price I might lean toward the Luminox.

    Other than Microbotec being the illumination source, there is no direct connection between the two companies.

    They did probably use the same movement, but I don't believe they're related either.

    I think I'd take the KHS, just for the steel case alone. I wouldn't expect much mileage out of a plastic case watch (that is, if you do use the watch while doing the things that their names and marketing brochures suggest you will), and I definitely don't like the overly light and cheap feel that plastic watches have. I have a G-Shock that never gets worn, and I recently sold an aluminum Suunto because I didn't like the feel.

    I'd also look at Tawatec watches. They use H3 tritium tubes as well, and the one I got is titanium, so it's light, but it doesn't feel cheap. I've only had it a few days (it's used, I got it in a trade), but it seems like a good watch so far.

    A man's watch is a very cherished thing. You steal that, you might as well be stealing his soul.
