My new Lüm-Tec C1 is finally here!
« on: September 14, 2009, 07:37:20 PM »
I am so happy that I finally got my C1 (serial #030/100) from Lüm-Tec. I was contemplating between the orange PVD C4 version or this C1, but decided C1 it is as I kinda like the combination of the red hands and brushed look.

38mm fits perfectly well for my 6" wrist, I had to take alot of pins though :P Surprisingly it weighs rather heavy, about 140g. Bezel and crown is PVD coated, crown is diamond sealed.

Movement is a manual wind restored vintage Russian military movement, twin barrel; unfortunately C series do not have sapphire caseback and there is no option for fitting one as well.  :(

I really like the almost perfectly sweeping action of the second hand, which has a round tip that is also lumed up! Which means I can see the seconds hands moving in the dark as well!

Everything is clear, clean and crisp. Some says the design looks too plain, but I like it the way it is.

Overall, I am too happy, and cant wait for more Lüm-Tec-s to be released!

As always, photos taken by me, aint a photographer nor expert in one.









Following 2 photos are taken at about 6pm where the sunset is really bright for that day.




Following is taken indoors at about 9pm, where all lights are shut except for my computer screen.
