Beuchat Lumitech - References, Prices and Owners' Reviews

Today I present a special watch on several aspects: —> A watch that embodies its glorious past, —> A toolwatch that can withstand anything, —> A watch with incredible finishes and reasonable proportions compared to its performance and waterproofness. The case partly takes the shape of its vintage big sister the Genesis with fine lines (for a diver) but also its knurled crown. However, it takes a little more diameter to modernize and is 41 mm which remains reasonable when you have it on your wrist. The dials have nice colors. But also a small detail that I like a lot: Beuchat embossed on it on the entire dial. Never seen before. The superluminova is as efficient as on Seiko, Citizen or other similar sisters. The hands also take the shapes of its ancestors Genesis and Abyssal. The steel bezel is firm and has an excellent grip with its sharp notches. The strap is quite simple in urethane like Citizen or Seiko and has a small drop, because at the horns there is 20 mm and at the buckle 18 mm. The buckle is also simple with Beuchat written on it and is in brushed finish like almost the entire watch. The edges of the case are in sandblasted finish very lightly. The case back is incredibly engraved! Serial number, small diver like in the old days… The caliber is quite simple: Miyota 8215; many find it crude, but it is a very resistant caliber, and renowned because worthy cousin of Citizen more than renowned for their robustness. Another advantage any watchmaker will repair it and is not expensive to maintain. I will finish on the incredible water resistance also 500m! A watch that also has a special resonance for me: It was offered to me by the CEO Beuchat for my work done for them.
