Luminox Rounds Out its Bear Grylls Survival Collection with New AIR Series GMT Watch
Luminox began its partnership with survival specialist and “Man vs. Wild” TV star Bear Grylls in 2020 and has subsequently launched the Luminox x Bear Grylls Survival Series of tough, outdoor adventure-oriented watches. So far, we’ve seen a “LAND” chronograph, a “SEA” dive watch, and a compass-equipped “MASTER” model. This year, Luminox completes the series with the new AIR Collection, distinguished by its world-time and GMT functionality.
Ref. XB.3761 on Cordura strap
Like all of the watches in the Luminox x Bear Grylls family, the new model, which is mounted on either a tough Cordura strap or a steel Milanese-style mesh bracelet, has been thoroughly tested and approved by Grylls himself, who also helped design and develop the watch. Inside its 45-mm stainless steel case is a quartz movement with a built-in world-time complication. Outwardly, this travel-friendly function uses an orange-tipped GMT hand to point to a second time zone on a 24-hour ring, along with a bidirectional bezel etched with the names of 24 world cities, one to represent each time zone. Unique to this watch, the cities chosen are, according to Luminox, “home to the premier special forces around the world.” (Grylls served as a combat trooper in Britain’s SAS.) The bezel is made of Luminox’s proprietary Carbonox alloy, with an aluminum inlay for the city ring.
