Member X Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 I'm sure I got the link off here (was it flavor flav who set up business??) but I was looking at some of the lum-tec stuff this week. I'm liking the B1 Combat! QC seems to be excellent from what I've read but they're not cheap compared to some of the alternatives. Are they worth the extra? The B1 is what I've been looking for but it's only running an Asian movement (although rebuilt) so I'm just looking for confirmation that they're a safe bet really... Thanks for any advice! (I did do a search but couldn't find any specific threads on the make so apologies if I'm re-posting!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, I know many a happy buyer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harryarme Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Note that the M series due out in the fall will have an 80-hour twin barrel movement, using a reworked vintage Soviet Army movement. It has a nice Panerai look to it and will come with a bracelet and two straps, and will be available in S/S and PVD. I'm thinking seriously about one of those.

Guest avitt Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 It's not a lum-tec, but if you like the B1 style, I've currently got this for sale on eBay. Specs are excellent. Decorated PVD movement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
