I've always wondered what's the big deal with Lum Tec, they always seem really pricey vs what they offer but heck.. If they sell a lot of pieces then they must have a following..
On my case, $800 is a lot of money and if I were to spend it on a watch i'd buy a higher end piece with a proven movement albeit swiss or japanese not the ones Lum Tec offers.. Just MHO..
I tell you what is up with LumTec: As most of company who present them self as designed/builded or assembled/cased in the USA, the prices hit the usual roof...
It has always amazed me.
In fact, the average level of life is lower in the US than Switzerland but somehow the "prestige" seems to be higher for those watches designated for the American market and them customers ready to pay for the nationalistic feeling.
Just my personal view on this phenomenon...
