I have this watch and it is very nice, high quality, nice band, and lights up like all Luminox watches, at night (it looks like a Tag Heuer, but costs about half as much as one). The band clasp is a bit "complex", but the result is that the band is seamless, and you dont have that clamp thing that clamps the band down externally. It is all internal. The only problem I have with this watch is that the bezel is so hard to turn. I hope it gets better with time. For $ 350 out of the box, I expected more. I would still buy it, but I only give this watch 4 stars, due to the bezel issue.
Update [I added this part about 6 months after writing the first part of the review, above]: this watch is now my favorite watch. I really like the design and that has "grown" on me. For me, this watch is the perfect fit and weight. I have a couple steel watches that dont fit that well, they slide up and down my arm a bit, but this one fits my wrist perfectly. I love the look and feel of this watch. It looks like a Rolex Submariner, and the face is very similar to a $ 700 Tag Heuer. This watch really comes alive at night, though. The light green tritium dial is amazing and very, very bright. The bezel has loosened up a bit, and is now better. The only really minor thing I dont like is, the crystal has two very tiny scratches in it, because it is mineral crystal, not sapphire. But that is very minor, and you cant see the scratches unless you really look hard for them.
Overall, a great watch for the price. Very happy with it.
