Icon6 Luminox SR-71 Blackbird - Blackout Watch (Luminox #9082.BO)

Hey all!!!

Long time no see!!!

Anyhoo, as per the subject matter, I'm lucky enough to have purchased a Luminox SR-71 Blackbird - Blackout Watch (Luminox #9082.BO), brand new, with tags, et cetera, with a Valjoux 7750 Automatic Chronograph. Only 999, Limited Edition, were made, worldwide.

For some reason, I just absolutely love this timepiece. It just stood out and said 'BUY ME!!!'.

Does anyone on the forum have this particular model, or have any first hand experience, as I would love to know any personal opinions, good or bad.

Please find below three links: -

I own a couple Luminox watches
I owned that one and sold it.
I do not care for the case or the crown
at 10 oclock. I have other watches with
crowns there but for some reason with
the case and crown it was uncomfortable.

If you like it that is all that matters.

It just was not for me.

Luminox make great beaters for camping and hunting.
The T Tubes are great for telling what time it is when you
wake in middle of the night in a dark tent or cabin
