@Nateb123 I personally know several SEAL and SWCC operators who use this watch during operations. They use the Luminox 3051 NATO version as it is the version currently issued. It does not have a rubber strap, but rather a green nylon strap with tension-based closing system. I personally own a 3051 NATO and have used it for 12 years in the field. I have replaced the bezel once, the glass twice and the batteries as would be expected. Otherwise it functions flawlessly. Great warranty.

@Nateb123 i don't no any seals, however i know a lot of Marines that wear this watch

Can you do me a favor and stop trolling my comments page? It's based on opinion for Luminox; some people hate it (you) and some people love it (me). And no, I do not personally know any SEALS, and I do not beleive that they use this "garbage", but this watch definatley conforms to MIL-W-46374F.

@NeoNSPETSNAZ Tactical? Do you even know any navy seals? I assure you no one uses this garbage.

@NeoNSPETSNAZ It's not rubber, it's polyurethane. It gets brittle and snaps easily after a bit of heat and water since they use the cheapest grade you can get for a watch strap. Rubber doesn't do that nearly as quickly, and silicone is more likely to tear because it's hugely flexible.
-
@Terrorpig Yeah, the polyurethane they use is the cheapest out there. Same for the polycarbonate that makes up the case. Keep it away from water if you want it to last. This is 100m water resistant at best when its new. Over time the case deforms and water comes rushing in...

Dry and boring

Straps and bands suck big time! Change straps twice! Poor quality rubber straps! Had to buy Zulu nylon straps to replace the original straps.
-
nevermind I fixed it...you just need to twist it REALLY hard.
Does the bezel rotate?

Yes, the bezel does rotate.

You will have no issues with the size. My wrists aren't that thick and still have several size adjustments left on the strap.
