Luminox Atacama Adventurer Field Quartz Brown Dial Gunmetal Grey Stainless Steel Men\'s Watch XL.1768 RRP £820 History: This series, Atacama Adventurer Field, is named after the Atacama Desert in Chile, the driest true reserve in the world. Covering more than 41,000 square miles, Chile‘s Atacama Desert stretches along the Pacific and spills across borders into Peru, Bolivia and Argentina. Its innumerable splendors—rare flamingoes, mind-bending salt flats, desolate landscapes and celestial access. Designed to survive in this challenging environment, the Atacama Adventurer Field 1760 series does it all with a casual, urban style. At first glance, no one will know how tough these watches are... But you do. Style: A grainy brown dial takes inspiration from the sand of the Atacama Desert in Chile. The dial features a two step dial with white Arabic indexes for the hours and seconds around the very outside. The lower layer features the ever present Luminox logo underneath the 12 o\'clock position. The dial is then protected by an eye-catching gunmetal IP stainless steel case alongside a resilant sapphire crystal glass. Also, the glass is covered in an anti-reflective coating which presents the hot desert sun giving out glare. Then a three link gunmetal grey IP stainless steel bracelet can be fastened with a deployment clasp. Functions: All Luminox watches feature a self-powered illumination system employing tiny micro gas light sources. This unique Swiss technology guarantees unsurpassed ability to read the time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for up to 25 years. Each watch has micro gas lights mounted on the hands, dial and, when necessary, also on the bezel. This unique technology does not depend on an external light source to \'charge\' fluorescent paint on the dial or hands in order to glow, nor do Luminox watches require the push of a button to light up as do watches with elctroluminescene. The dial features two displays, one for a date window and another to display the seconds. Instead of hands, this seconds sub dial features a turning disk with two arrows. This watch has a water resistance of 200 metres, making it suitable for diving.

Trench fighting required quick, accurate timing so watches had to be small enough to be worn on the wrist. The battlefield environment also created a need for exceptionally water and shock resistant watches, and the Field watch quickly evolved a distinctive style – rugged and utilitarian with virtually no embellishment.
