I bought this watch in 1996 and around 1998 her bezel popped off.

I contacted Luminox and they said they do not sell the replacement unless I send the watch in for a full service (almost $200.)

Does anyone know who sells the bezels? Or, any of the other companies have bezels that fit an older 3001?

Thank you in advance...

hello, there are usually some broken or not running LUMINOX watches on Fleabay that you can buy cheap to get a good bezel from....that is what I did when my bezel numbers wore off.....( well, bought a water damaged LUMI --then had a local jeweler replace it for me!!) hope this helps-----Paul H|>

+1 on Paul's suggestion.

I will continue with ebay but slim pick'ns

There are many watches that use the same cases as the luminox, is there a list of companies I can try that will have a bezel that would fit?

Thanks again

hey, it's me again---i should have mentioned that in my other post....there are several companies that make this EXACT same model/style (P.U. case and same bezel) different model #'s from different companies--but the same watch---I.E. Traser,KHS,Smith & Wesson, Stocker & Yale,Ball,----Just to name a few--i can do a little research and probably come up with at least 5 more...it is a very common design... not saying some of the ones i mentioned would be all that cheap even if they were damaged!!! (Ball--Sandy) but search a few of these makers too!! you might find one quicker....Paul H |>

just found a few more: ASP, Field & Stream, Weems & Plath

Traser and Luminox are one and the same company like Victorinox and Wenger are now one company. I'd contact Traser and see what say. A replacement bezel should run about $40~Good luck! ;-)

Spectre130---hello, it is paul again...i was just surfing fleabay and found a luminox listed as is for parts only and it has a bezel like you need...it looks to be in really good condition. The item # is 320512459731 or your can do a search in watches for "luminox" and newly listed and it should come up in the first 10 or 20 listings---------kind regards, paul h.:-!

What luminox model numbers all use the same size bezel? I contacted Luminox for service again and now they said that I would have to buy a whole new case because they no longer have the bezels for a 300X series Luminox. I though many of the luminox (and type) watches all use the same case?

I have a few Luminox watches and I am now looking at a 1 year old catalog to see what models look the same and might use the same bezels. The good news is there are 3 distinct series of case sizes in the Seal line. Either the original size in 43mm, 44mm in the "color" series and the newer 45mm. I cant see why any PC carbon reinforced plastic 43mm 3000 series bezel wouldnt fit your watch. Perhaps they changed the way the bezel attaches to the case on the newer 3000 series watches. PM me if you need any more info. I would be glad to help you any way I can.|>

I have a bezel for a 3001 "Navy Seals" watch. Lets say $30.00 plus shipping?

After 4 years I think he managed to replace it.
