Luminox Pacific Diver
Luminox was founded in California in 1989 around a Swiss light source: tiny sealed gas tubes that glow on their own, with no charging from the sun or a lamp. The name joins the Latin for light and night. The brand made its reputation with the Navy SEALs in the early 1990s, and the 3001 Original Navy SEAL watch that followed in 1994 is still the model most people picture when they hear the name.
The Pacific Diver is the brand's steel dive line. In 2024 Luminox added a Swiss automatic version, the 3100 series, built on a Sellita automatic movement with roughly 38 hours of reserve, in a 42mm steel case with a ceramic bezel insert, sapphire crystal and 200 metres of water resistance.
TRACEN Cape May
Training Center Cape May in New Jersey has been the Coast Guard's only enlisted basic training site since 1982, when the training center at Alameda, California closed. Every enlisted member of the service starts there.
