just arrived....Lum-Tec M46

[03ozwhip]

So, I think my buying spree is over, unless I sell a few pieces and find something else I want.

The addiction of timepieces, Beyond, I blame you! So anyways, I got this delivered today and was surprised by the box it came in, way better than the Phantom I just picked up as its a very soft real leather case.

Lum-Tec, as most of you know, has only limited edition pieces, my Phantom is #92/999, but what surprised me was that the M46 is only limited to 100 pieces, i figured the automatics would be more limited, but i guess not. I just received #4/100.

Here are a few pics I took as soon as I got it, the lume, holy shit, better than my Phantom, I'll let the pics do the talking.

to be fair, your original post made it sound like it was going to be bright as balls. I too was dissapointed in the lume quality. Should have added "pictures don't do it justice" because it really doesnt. Just saying.

LOL relax man...

I agree with the beyond being to blame for loving watches though, i was never into them until recently :nut:

Edit: that's also a sick watch though!

[flipstah]

Is the M46 an automatic?

Sick watch! :drool:

[ercchry]

exposure! got to adjust it! :D

i think hes just mad cause we gave him shit in the m51 thread too

got to do it like me though. get ww to do the photo shoot!

well it is bright as balls and pictures dont do it justice, but it doesnt matter, im showing the watch and how good the lume is DESPITE my photography skills.

think about it, that is pitch black with a shitty photographer, in person its a whole lot brighter.

again, i know my photography skills arent great, the watch is up for comment or no comment, not the way i took the pics .

thanks for making me feel bad though lol

[ercchry]

or maybe its your post processing that sucks :rofl:

nah the M46 is a quartz, thats why i was surprised it was so limited.

leave me alone guys :cry: im trying to learn my camera, its a better pic than the other ones i took anyways lol

[assylo]

LOL c'mon guys!

I've have a few Lum-Tec's and when it's charged up - the lume is far brighter than any of my other watches.

Congrats on the M46 and M51, both are beauties.

I'm waiting to pull the trigger on an M45!

[ercchry]

takes just under two weeks with wrist weapon since they ship it from lum-tec to them then to you

[03ozwhip]

^what he said, it was like 3 or 4 days for my M51 since WW had it at their building, but almost 2 weeks for the M46.

thanks guys, love the watch! errchry, still not bad pics, much better than mine lol

[importracer1]

Nice watch man!! I've got a M32 myself. :)

Now those are some good pics! Makes the watch look that much better!

[asp integra]

really looking into a lum right now, any store in town have them? i want to try one on before buying

[ercchry]

nope, only sell direct... or through the canadian distributor (wrist weapon)

just try on an equivalent sized watch. with the different strap options in the Mxx series, each one changes the feel of the watch dramatically.

[top_speed]

Looking at buying a watch, how much did you pay for this if you don't mind me asking?

[ercchry]

no deals to be had... choices are used, or full price from wristweapon or straight from lum-tec. i think wrist weapon ends up being the same or slightly less after everything is factored in.

wristweapon did offer me 10% off on my next order though
