LUM-TEC Combat F1 Concept Watch
The upmarket-ification of "America's son" watchmaker LUM-TEC may continue in full force. Some of you have expressed sadness that the brand is producing many timepieces outside of their original pricing a few years ago. It is true that the mean price for LUM-TEC watches is going up. It also true that LUM-TEC quality and watch features are also increasing. Most any "young" watch maker can't really do everything they want the first time around. Through subsequent successes LUM-TEC has been able to afford more quality components and fancy movements and materials for their watches. The result are timepieces that are closer to the dreams of the owners. In time I believe that LUM-TEC will offer a full range of watches from very reasonably priced entry level models to high-end durable watches that are "up to any task" and still look great in the process.One example of a potential future watch for LUM-TEC is this pictured Combat F1 concept watch. It reminds me of an updated Marathon GSAR watch

Along with its sister-release the Lux, the Lambda is NOMOS’s most expensive offering – by a lot. The Weltzeit (the astounding in-house dual time that sent ripples through the industry) retails at $6,100, and even that’s a price hike from the majority of NOMOS’s other in-house, stainless-steel models, which range from $1,500 to $4,000. The Lambda retails at $18,000 in rose gold and $20,000 in white gold. I’ll be the first to admit the unexpected proposition from my favorite German brand. 1 OF 8 Has NOMOS established itself as a (if not the) leader in t
