Luminox has become widely known when it comes to developing the best in special ops watches. The Luminox Black Ops 8401 is a newer addition to their special ops watch series, and is a very cool, yet casual seals watch to have.
Each Luminox Navy Seals Special Ops Watch is field tested by the seals themselves. That is the reason why these unique watches are extremely durable, reliable and rugged enough to withstand the abuse when its time to go out in the field.
Like all Luminox wrist watches, the Black Ops 8401 is a Swiss-made dive watch, making it not only durable and long lasting, but a very stylish and everyday casual watch to wear.
The face on the 8401 is a tad bit large and the rubber wrist band is quite long. The reason for this is for visibility and if needed to wrap around your wrist if you have to wear a wet suit. If that is not of any importance, then this would be a very comfortable seals watch to wear.
The special titanium illumination system that is a trademark of Luminox is what makes these watches so special. Unlike the painted versions on other watches. You can see the face extremely clear in an area with very little to no light.
There is a manufacturers warranty of up to two years on all Luminox watches and an amazing ten year manufacturers warranty on the Luminox illumination system.
A Personal Review of Tissot Sports Watches
I am a admirer of Tissot watches and am fortunate enough to own one - a PRS516 Automatic chronograph Tissot T-Sport. What follows are my personal reviews of Tissot sports watches and the current collections.
Tissot produce a large collection of different styles of sports watches that are of excellent quality at reasonable prices. The Tissot PRS516 cost much less than many of my other Swiss watches - my wife and I own some fine watches - but it is as well made and as stylish as any other sports watch. Tissot have been making watches since 1853 and have been instrumental in designing some of the most technically advanced timepieces: the Tissot T-Touch watch is the world's first touch screen wristwatch.
Tissot make an extensive range of sports watches. If you're a serious diver then the Diver Seastar is for you. The Tissot Seastar is an automatic timepiece made with a highly resistant steel case, capably of resisting diving depths of 300 meters. What I particularly like about the Tissot Seastar is its domed sapphire crystal glass, which magnifies numbers on the colored dials; no other diver's watch that I know of has this feature.
The Tissot PR100X sports watch offers more refined elegance. The PR100X Small Lady Tissot watch is a very elegant ladies watch and is one of the most beautiful of ladies sport watches, in my opinion. It is resistant up to 100 meters, has a screw down crown, glass sapphire glass and silver dial. The case is stainless steel as is the bracelet.
The Tissot PR200X is a classic timepiece, with a large face: the most striking models come with a bright yellow sweeping second and counter hands and white indices with clear Arab numbers that stand out boldly against the midnight black dial.
The Tissot PRS200 sports watch remains Tissot's best selling sports watch. It looks rugged but stylish. Its chronograph movement, casing and bracelet in steel or gold color with a choice of silver, black, blue dial, water resistance to 200 meters, make it a very appealing sports watch. Personally I prefer The Tissot PRS516 - after all I did buy it - as PRS516 stands out from other sports watches whereas the Tissot PRS200 looks similar to a lot of other brands.
The Tissot T-Race was designed to reflect the best of all types of two-wheeled sports, from cycling to motorcycle racing. I really like these watches. The case is a stainless steel/carbon composite. The straps are of rubber and come in a variety of colors. The use of pastel colors makes them a good choice as a ladies sports watch. The standard model comes with three small dials, a second hand, 1/10 second hand and 30 minute counter. The Tissot T-Race watches come with quartz chronograph.
Tissot signed an agreement with NASCAR, making Tissot the official timekeeper of America's popular auto-racing. The T-Race NASCAR special edition features carbon dial, with a tough hybrid case of steel and rubber and matching black rubber strap. Inspired by the fans' passion for the sport, the Tissot T-Race NASCAR case back comes with an engraved NASCAR logo and crossed finish flags. Being keenly aware of a sport where 1/100th of second makes the difference between winning and losing, the Tissot NASCAR watch comes with a Swiss chronograph movement. The large, red-colored Arab numerals at 12, 4 and 8 are complemented by the large, industrial looking hour and minute hands. A very nice feature is the magnified crystal above the date display.

Finding the Right Men's Sports Watches
Very little importance was placed on early sports watches. All that was required was a timepiece that could keep time. Over the years this has changed dramatically and the men's sports watches of today feature a plethora of features and are available in a vast range of categories to suit different kinds of sports and goals. In today's world it is now advisable to choose a sports watch, only after careful consideration. The following tips will help making choosing one a little easier.
The primary concern when choosing a sports watch is the type of sport you are involved in. Of foremost importance is to analyze the requirements that your new sports watch must fulfill.
If you are buying a watch to accompany you into deep sea diving, then you'll need a watch that can operate in the harsh environment of the deep sea. Your watch must be clearly visible in the lower light levels experienced at these depths and must be able to withstand extreme pressure and corrosiveness of sea water.
Do you do a lot of running? Then you'll be looking at digital running watches. The heart and soul of a digital mens sports watch is the stopwatch or chronograph features and you should opt for a watch that you can view clearly when you are in the middle of a hard run. A sports running watch that can offer you access to more than one screen of customizable data fields will certainly give you an edge in monitoring your real-time fitness statistics.
Most runners will need to keep track of the number of laps they have run and sessions they have done over time. Check the watch's ability to store session logs in memory.
The ability to transfer their data to personal computer for review in a software package can give a runner a powerful method of analysing their performances. Check if the watch can facilitate data transfer to a computer if you feel you need this level of analysis in your performance training routine.
Speaking of running and fitness features, countdown and interval timers provide you with the tools for timed interval training sessions. An interval timer allows a runner to set up timed effort and recovery periods, letting him know when to start or stop. This feature can be useful for a variety of non-running purposes too. Should you wish to pursue an optimal level of fitness monitoring, then you might consider a heart rate monitor device. Most advanced endurance watches are equipped with one or support one as an optional extra.
The purpose of a heart rate monitor chest strap is to monitor your hear beat rate and present you with feedback on your performance over the duration of a fitness activity. A heart rate monitor can help guide you by informing you if your exercise intensity is too high or too low and if you are recovering quickly enough from your last effort.
Advanced watches today can also track speed and distance, whether it is with an accelerometer foot pod device, pedometer, or fully-fledged GPS tracking system. The benefits of speed and distance tracking is immense for runners and other athletes who wish to keep track of their speed, pace, distance travelled and even plot routes of their courses.

Chronograph Watches For Sports
Wearing a chronograph watch gives a statement of sophistication! Many rich and prominent individuals wear chronographs because of its exciting and adventurous look. Yet, not only because of its glamorous image is a chronograph a valuable timepiece, but it is also due to its craftsmanship and complex mechanism.
A chronograph watch is not just a simple timepiece. It is a timepiece with a stopwatch function in addition to regular timekeeping. This feature allows one to measure elapsed time - for example, measuring the duration of a sporting event. Therefore, chronographs have become very popular by many great athletes.
Although a chronograph watch might appear to be very complicated with all its buttons and sub dials, it is actually very simple to use. Following is an easy-to-understand explanation on how this watch works.
Chronograph watches have two buttons on the right side of the case. The top button, the one positioned at around two o'clock, starts and stops the stopwatch. When the button is pressed, a large seconds hand starts moving around the dial, finishing a full round of the dial in 60 seconds. When the button is depressed again, the hand stops moving. So if you want to time the duration of a short event, just depress the top button at the start of the race and again at the exact moment the finishing line is crossed. Now look where the hand stopped - that is how many seconds the race took. Once you have recorded the elapsed time and you want to reset the chronograph hand to its zero position, at twelve o'clock, press the lower right button. You are now ready to start timing your next event! It is that simple! Just start, stop and reset!
Now, what are all the sub dials for?
Firstly, you will see one sub dial which runs continuously in seconds intervals and is not affected by any of the buttons. This is your seconds hand, as opposed to a large hand on the full dial as it is on non-chronographs.
Next, your chronograph might have a sub-dial which is your minute counter. The minute sub dial is used to record events lasting between one to thirty minutes. You press the same top right button which starts the large chronograph hand. Every time the large chronograph hand reaches its zero position again, meaning another minute elapsed, the minute sub dial will move one mark. At the end of the event, press the top button again and both the large hand and the minute sub dial will stop. Now check the readings on the minute sub dial in addition to the number of seconds. Once you have recorded the duration of the race, press the reset button. The minute counter and the large hand are now back to its zero position and it's time for the next dash.
Some Chronographs may have additional sub dials. You might have one sub dial showing 3 or 12-hour calibrations. This counter records longer events, like airplane flights. It takes the large chronograph hand to circle the dial 60 times for this sub dial to move one notch, showing one hour elapsed.
You may realize that one of the sub dials moves rapidly when the stopwatch function is stopped. You are probably seeing tenths or hundredths of a second being measured.

Sports Wrist Watch Features
Sports wrist watches are designed to help people in monitoring the time while they are active in sports. A sports wrist watch is the best option if you are looking for something that will help you in your health and fitness pursuits. These wrist watches are also offered for both men and women. Expert runners believe that one of the best ways to practice and get ready for race day is with close and careful monitoring of miles, pace and heart rate. However, some casual runners and joggers can be able to practice using a regular, digital sport watch, but running long miles in a week with a set speed in mind need to sort through the hype and prefer using a running watch to closely track each stride.
At present, there are different running watches available for runners. In fact, there are various options that runners can have. With that said, it is sometimes difficult to choose which watch is best for their running training and workouts. People who are considered as beginners in running are well aware that they should be using a watch specifically designed for runners but may not have adequate knowledge of which features they actually need on a running watch. In addition, they may also not be aware of the different options available to them. The lack of understanding makes the runner susceptible to buying a watch that does not contain the features that he needs during his training.
Choosing the right model of running watch can be a difficult task especially for the fitness runner who is not familiar with the different features and capabilities of running wrist watches these days. There are a number of factors to consider once a person has decided to purchase a wrist watch. Here are the elements you should consider in purchasing a sports wrist watch so that you can maximize its usage during your workout and training:
Display
A display which is easy to day or night is important. You watch must have a good display during the times you prefer to use it when especially when you are running. A lighted display is used or a back-lighted display is also available since some people prefer to practice at night or during the early morning. Some watches have an Indigo display. It is best to try the watch in the dark and make sure it is easily readable.
Timer and stopwatch
Timer will give you readout of elapsed time and the stopwatch will countdown the time elapsed. They are considered as the basic features that should be available in any running watch. These functions may be all that are required by runners and joggers.
Calories Burned
It functions to normally compute your weight, distance and pace to provide you an approximation of the calories you have burned. Most watches have a continuously updated measurement.
Heart Rate Monitor
This feature will compare your heartbeat with an elapsed time to provide your current heart rate. This option is becoming very popular among people who are into running. Some running watches will use a chest strap to determine the heartbeat while other will closely monitor the pulse in a person's wrist.
Global Positioning
A GPS enabled watch will allow the runner to know his exact location on a given course and let him plot courses accurately.
Water Resistant
Most runners usually practice even if it is raining. Choose a watch that will function in wet weather.
Computer Capabilities
This function is useful for sorting workouts, recording your workout history or uploading workouts from various websites.
A good practice is very important since preparing for something simply means that there must be some system to measure one' s progression after some set period. To achieve a certain goal, the best tools are necessary to analyze one's development. Each runner should carefully determine which types of watches are best for his needs and which types are not worth the investment. Through a bit of concentration and prioritizing, he can choose a running watch that suits his budget, style and fitness needs.

What Makes Sport Watches So Expensive?
Why is it that some sport watches are so expensive, while other brands remain affordable? Why are Michael Kors watches so reasonably priced, yet many other makers find it necessary to charge more for their collections? Well, in the case of sport timepieces... one reason for the increased price is the precision craftsmanship that goes into them. Some makers, like Michael Kors, use Swiss quartz movements in their watches. Quartz is really inexpensive to manufacture and is quite accurate and reliable. Using Quartz movements, rather than putting together costly mechanical movements, keeps the price down and keeps customers coming back.
Brand name pedigree is another factor that drives up the price of a watch. Brand name is the e sport watch industry has succumb to this attraction. Most makers of sport watches these days are luxury brand companies. The "luxury" refers to high quality craftsmanship and fine materials.
Product development costs money. Developing new products can be time consuming and expensive... in most cases that cost will be passed on to the consumer, thus a higher price. The makers of high performance sport collections are constantly looking for new and interesting ways to re-invent the wheel.
Limited edition translates into more dollar signs. A lot of makers create limited edition collections in order to create a buzz about the brand and therefore drive up the retail price. It may not be only a reflection of the mere number of pieces produced, but also the uniqueness of the watches. The more unique a piece, the more likely it is to have more expensive components.
As I mentioned earlier, the movement has a great deal to do with the final cost. Mechanical movements are much more expensive to produce and much more time consuming to create. As a generally rule, any mechanical will cost more than their Quartz cousins.
Finally, the most important factor in the cost of a piece is mark up. The more hands looking to get a piece of the profit, the more you will have to pay as the consumer. The best way to keep as many middle men out of the picture as possible is to buy from the manufacturer or better yet to shop on-line at stores that the maker works with. In many cases you can shop a wide selection and get a deal, to boot. Sport watches of high quality can be had at reasonable prices.

The New Nike+ Sport Watch GPS
Nike are famous for their sports watches but until recently have had nothing to compete with Garmin or Polar when it comes to GPS capable devices. This has changed with the introduction of the Nike+ Sport Watch GPS.
Nike have partnered with TomTom to challenge Garmin's dominance of the upper end of the sports watch market. TomTom are most famous for their automotive GPS systems but also bring plenty of experience from handheld GPS aids.
As you would expect there is a strong emphasis on style in the new watch. It is a broad, square, flat to the wrist, watch which allows for a large display. This is essential if you want to check your data as you are running. There is a powerful backlight for evening running.
For those tough people who think nothing of running in the rain, the watch is also waterproof. In fact it is waterproof to a depth of 50 meters so you can afford to drop it in the pool!
It is the GPS that will attract everyone's attention, though. GPS allows you to run anywhere and compare data with any other runs easily. You won't have to stick to the same old path everyday to know if you are improving or not. The watch will calculate distance and speed for any run you make and this can be checked against previous runs, either on a computer or on your wrist. If you do connect to a PC, you can upload the data to Nike+ to view your runs plotted on TomTom maps.
The heart rate monitor is invaluable for seeing improvements in fitness levels. The fitter you get, the lower your heart rate will be for comparable runs.
When it comes to training regimes, the Nike SportWatch will help set challenges and suggest targets. It can even give you audible encouragement as you run and let you know when targets have been hit.
For anyone who is already a member of the online Nike running community the watch will allow you share your triumphs with others.
The watch was announced at CES 2011 and is due to hit the shelves in April.

Buying Sports Watches for Men
If you're an active guy and you need to know what time it is (as well as other information), sports watches for men can give you the ability to do just that even as you keep up with your active lifestyle. It doesn't matter what sport or sports you like; if you are up cyclist, swimmer, skier, hiker, and so on, the right sports watch will keep you on track whatever you're doing.
What are the right sports watches for men?
Watches come in different styles and types, and with different features, so the right sports watch for you is going to depend on what you need it for. For example, if you're a runner and you like to time yourself while you're doing the mile, that's one option. If you're going to be hiking in the wilderness, the sports what you buy should have GPS features or at least a compass so that you don't get lost. If you're a swimmer, or if you run during inclement weather, you're going to want one that's waterproof in addition to having other features like a timer or GPS device.
Take a look at price
Set yourself a budget and price limit as to what you can spend on sports watches, and then look for one with the features you need. Sports watches for men literally run the gamut in price, but you don't necessarily have to spend a lot of money to get the features you want in a good-quality watch.
What features will you need?
If you're just a "weekend" athlete, in that you like to exercise for fun and to stay in shape but you're not really training for anything, sports watches for men come in basic models with relatively basic features, for a reasonable price. However, if you are a true athlete and you're in training for something, you'll want a watch that has features like a really accurate timer, memory, etc., so that you'll pay a bit more - maybe quite a bit more - for that particular watch. Again, determine what your price range or budget for the watch is going to be first, and then look for a good watch that has the features you want.
Go to a brick-and-mortar store to "shop," first
Sports watches for men aren't something you can really buy online, for the most part, without having a good one on one look at them first. Therefore, it's a good idea to go to some sporting goods stores or high-end department stores to take a look at them' different models firsthand. Test several for price, fit, and features, and write down the names you like based upon those specifications.

Set yourself a budget and price limit as to what you can spend on sports watches, and then look for one with the features you need. Sports watches for men literally run the gamut in price, but you don't necessarily have to spend a lot of money to get the features you want in a good-quality watch.
What features will you need?
If you're just a "weekend" athlete, in that you like to exercise for fun and to stay in shape but you're not really training for anything, sports watches for men come in basic models with relatively basic features, for a reasonable price. However, if you are a true athlete and you're in training for something, you'll want a watch that has features like a really accurate timer, memory, etc., so that you'll pay a bit more - maybe quite a bit more - for that particular watch. Again, determine what your price range or budget for the watch is going to be first, and then look for a good watch that has the features you want.
Go to a brick-and-mortar store to "shop," first
Sports watches for men aren't something you can really buy online, for the most part, without having a good one on one look at them first. Therefore, it's a good idea to go to some sporting goods stores or high-end department stores to take a look at them' different models firsthand. Test several for price, fit, and features, and write down the names you like based upon those specifications.
Affordable Sport Watches for Summer
This summer why not indulge yourself with a new sport watch? Of course, most of us don't have an unlimited budget, so shopping has to be done with care and consideration. First you need to choose a brand name that is respected for high quality and affordability, like Tissot watches. Tissot produces high end precision timepieces that most of us can afford...and that's key. If you decide on this maker you have lots of choices in sport timepieces. What you must do next is to examine your needs and how you want your watch to work for you, because these models do so much more than simply keep time. Let's look at some of the considerations that should be on your mind:
1. In the case of most sport watches, water resistance will be an important factor. Even if you're not a swimmer, a water resistant model is advised. Look for a timepiece with a water resistance of at least 50 meters, which should be sufficient should you find yourself caught in the rain, at least.
2. Comfort is key. A sport model is one that you wear while training, and for this reason comfort is vital. Look for a model that has a soft rubber strap or one that has been ergonomically designed to fit the curve of your wrist. You will be happy you did, when wearing your new watch for hours on end.
3. Make sure the display is easy to read. Many Tissot models will offer luminescent arms and indexes, which really help in poor lighting or bad weather conditions. In any case, the read-out should be large enough for you to read in any circumstances.
4. What features and functions do you need? Think about the complications that best suit you and your routine. Shy away from any other features, because they will only add to the price of the piece. Consider how you want the watch to work for you and pay for only those functions.
5. Understand optional accessories. These might include GPS, which you probably think is cool, but in actuality a timepiece with GPS also requires you to spend extra money on a separate GPS pod. If you need it, get it... just have a clear understanding of all the costs involved.
Summer is a great time to pick up a new sport watch. If you know the basics...you're a step ahead in the race.

Choosing the Perfect GPS Sport Watch for Your Lifestyle
Now that almost everybody's lifestyles are becoming more docile because of the machines we use, what has suffered now is our health. This is why when we do exercise and do outdoor training we need to know if we really do benefit from what we are striving at. Good thing we have now the GPS Sport Watches.
The word GPS stands for Global Positioning System. This system enables us to know our location on a given locality aided by satellites. The GPS is incorporated in sports watches so that outdoor training would be more complete when we know where we are and where we are heading. GPS sport watches are also favourite handy gadgets for people who are always on the go, those who love outdoor sports and are adventurous so it is precise to say that these watches are just the perfect timepieces for mountain bikers, runners, motor bikers, kayakers, mountaineers, sailors and the like.
While the GPS feature helps us in terms of zone positioning, the sport watch's features enable us to know how we are doing with our exercise programs. The watch can detect our calorie burning rate, the pace of our heartbeat, the speed that we do with our training and much more depending on the model of the sport watch you will be choosing.
You can really benefit from your training if you will be aided by your GPS sport watch. Now, the issue is how would you choose the best watch for your training and exercise program and what would be your criteria on buying the right one? Different models of such watches abound and most of them are made by various watch companies who have good track records in designing and coming up with stare-of-the-art technology watches just to be dominant in the market. In this case, the best thing to do is to narrow down your choices among the best brands available.
For your information, every brand of GPS sport watch has its strengths and flaws. For you to take on the one with the greatest features, you must do your own research and the Internet is the best area for this. So far, the best brands come from Suunto, Timex, Polar and of course the Garmin GPS sport watches which are almost complete in their features.
When you have chosen the model of your choice for each brand, list down their best features you desire in them and then rate these from the most significant to the least important. For instance, if you will be looking for a GPS sport watch with a heart rate monitor then check out the brands of your choice that do have the best features in this aspect and compare. Or if you want the GPS feature the most, just do the same comparison. As a tip, you will know the watches' unique features not solely on the product's description but on the buyer's reviews and comments of the products.
To help you more, significant GPS sport watches must have their best features with the following:
1. GPS. There is no such thing as an accurate GPS timepiece because such watches have such small electronic system that satellite cannot 100 percent accurately pinpoint especially if some things above block the signal such as clouds and trees. However, your watch should be able to show you your location by at least five meters point accuracy every time you use it.
2. Heart Rate Monitor. For those who are concerned with the rate of their heartbeat and health of their heart, this feature is a must.
3. Size. Although most people say the larger the sport watch the more features it can pack, this can be true because that only means it is more suited with more accessories and stronger software. However, if the watch will be too big for your arm, that would not be right for your training and comfort. Better choose the one that have the features you specifically want, light, will not cause problem with your wrist and will give your free movement.
4. Accessories. Special accessories like alarm, water-resistance, night light mode, and so on are also very important because you have to rely on the watch's features whenever you need it.
5. Data recorder. Some watches can accurately save different data in their software which you can download, upload and share among your peers. Your data will tell you your improvement and how are you going to go much further.
6. Software. The software will always be the base on how good, accurate and reliable your watch can be. Generally, the branded ones such as mentioned above are now utilizing the best software for GPS sport watches.
So these are the things you should not overlook at when choosing your sport watch. What is important is you choose the best ones that have the most positive features on your given requirements and it must not fail you.

Selecting a Women's Sport Watch
As if it isn't hard enough to choose a wristwatch for a woman, picking out a sports timepiece can be impossible. These instruments are highly technical and must be suited to the individual who will wear it. There are a lot of considerations one must take into account when choosing a sport luxury piece, especially if you're buying it for another person. So, whether you are searching through moderately priced Victorinox Swiss Army watches or another less expensive brand...there is some advice that can make your choice easier and make the recipient happier. Let's have a look at the proper process for making the decision about a ladies sport timepiece:
1. As I mentioned earlier, brand is important here. Yes, a good brand pedigree is the mark of a good reputation. Sport watches, like the ones made by Victorinox Swiss Army have been crafted with care and are expected to be accurate and last. A sport timepiece has a job to do that goes beyond just looking good on the wrist, they must perform consistently. Swiss made brands are the best because of the stringent standards put forth by the Swiss government. If you want reliability, by a Swiss made timepiece.
2. Complications are key. The types of complications available on many sport watches vary. It's really important that you know which functions are needed and only pay for those. Extra functions will just add to the price of the timepiece, and if they are unnecessary you will end up spending more than you need to. If the person you're shopping for is a runner, you will probably want a chronograph feature along with a few other vital elements. Just keep in mind that not everyone needs the works, when it comes to watch functions.
3. Always choose a model that has an adequate amount of water resistance. Any good quality watch will have some water resistance, but a sport model needs a bit more protection. These timepieces are often worn out in the rain. I would say that you should look for a water resistance level of at least 5 ATM. This rating should keep your timepiece safe in the weather.
4. Choose a stylish piece. Women like function and fashion, so pick out a watch that accommodates both areas.
Makers of women's sport watches usually offer a few different styles. Keep in mind the personal taste of the person you're buying for and you won't go wrong.
