Luminox Sentry collection of military watches

While the recently revealed Essential Gear collection was designed for the pros wearing guns and flak jackets, the new Luminox Sentry line designed primarily for the civilians craving the affordable watches with tritium tube lighting and military styling.

The watches are offered in carbon-reinforced polymer case with a polyurethane strap and are powered by the Ronda 515 AIG 6 Swiss quartz movement.

Trying to say as many watches as possible, Luminox priced the Sentry watches at ridiculously low $255 putting them among the most affordable yet quality watches available on the U.S. market.

I am just unsure about the crown. Made of 316L stainless steel, it seems to be completely smooth so setting time and date may become a real hassle, especially if your hands tend to sweat.
